He is a pioneer of internationally recognized Indian composers in the field of classical music. He has adopted a flexible approach to form, incorporating atonal and twelve-tone techniques, and his works incorporate Indian poetry, philosophical ideas, and texts. The album contains four string pieces. The album includes four string quartets.Chiaroscuro II\" from 1976 is practically the first, beginning with the violin and viola each playing their own rhythms, and the cello playing a melody with quartets and col legno, embodying the \"Chiaroscuro (light and shadow)\" of the title. Sohal did not compose another quartet for nearly 30 years, but in 2005 he wrote his second (not included on this album), followed by a succession of works. All of the pieces are worth listening to: No. 3 with its introspective expression and complex counterpoint, No. 4 with its intense composition reminiscent of Shostakovich, and No. 5 with its oriental sound and sharp rhythms.\n\n\n\n(Naxos Japan)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Toccata Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51265078034721,"sku":"4589538821135","price":17.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4589538821135.jpg?v=1747037589","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-fr\/products\/4589538821135","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
