_______________________________________________________________________
This is the second CD in a series presenting the complete
string quartets of composer/performer/producer/instrument
builder Elliott Sharp, one of the busiest and most
consistently inventive figures in the downtown scene. Elliott
has forged a unique language blending computer science,
fractals, improvisation and mathematics, and his dynamic
compositions for string quartets are some of the best work in
his catalog. Brilliantly performed by the dynamic Sirius
Quartet who has a history with SharpÆs music that goes back
decades, this is intense and imaginative new music from one of
the most unique compositional voices working today.
Personnel:
Sirius String Quartet
Mike Block: Cello
Jennifer Choi: Violin
Ron Lawrence: Viola
Gregor Huebner: Violin
