Three Pieces for string quartet

Experience Classical

Available for over a year

A string quartet is often considered as a four-person 'conversation'. For Stravinsky this 1914 work is four 'voices' talking at cross purposes, each on their own subject. As such, the music is fragmented but facinating all the same. Composer: Igor Stravinsky Performers: Armida Quartet Recording date: 14 June 2015 Date of broadcast: 22 October 2015
