String Quartet No. 9
for string quartet
About
String Quartet No. 9 was written for the New Zealand String Quartet, taking advantage of their unique performance skills. This short single-movement work unfolds as a series of brief chorales interspersed with more active music. The music begins simply, modally, and becomes gradually more chromatic and complex as it proceeds.
