.. Quartets Nos 4 And 16 |
 | Description: | As with the previous volumes in their survey
of the quartets of Weinberg, the Arcadia
Quartet have selected a pair of works from
contrasting stylistic periods of the composerâ??s
output. The Fourth Quartet was composed in
1945, shortly after Weinberg had moved to
Moscow. The Quartet presents an abstract,
psychologically universal picture â?? a testimony
both to the composerâ??s artistic maturity and
to the affinity that Weinberg had discovered
with Shostakovich.
The Sixteenth Quartet was composed
between 1 January and 15 February 1981. It
carries a dedication to Weinbergâ??s sister,
Ester, who had perished following the Nazi
invasion of Poland and would have been sixty
that year. Typical of his later compositional
style, the writing is more muscular,
harmonically complex, and intense. - ..
