Description:

Britten's "Music for String Quartet" performed by the British Emperor Quartet is now available as a set! !SACD Hybrid Edition. Britten's "Music for String Quartet" performed by the Emperor Quartet is now available in a bargain priced set. Britten, who studied composition with John Eyland (1879-1962) at the Royal College of Music, was the greatest British composer of the 20th century, with fresh and contemporary works. He worked in various genres, including film music, opera, and choral music, but the chamber music he composed from his early years to his later years is also an essential product of Britten's music. In addition to the three string quartets listed above, Britten also composed a string quartet composed in 1931, revised in 1974, and premiered at the Snape Maltings and the Oldborough Music Festival, and left works in this performance form from his early to late years. Simple Symphony, Op. 4, was composed when Britten was 20 years old and consists of four movements for string orchestra or string quartet (I. "Noisy Bray," II. "Merry Pizzicato," III. "Sentimental Sarabande," and IV.Each of the 15-minute pieces has its own character, and the second piece, "Merry Pizzicato," is particularly impressive. The Small String Quartet is so accomplished that it is hard to believe that it was composed when the quartet was only 16 years old, and it is a powerful work that eschews familiarity. The Emperors Quartet, the pride of England, performs Britten's world in a lively, dynamic, and detailed ensemble in a fascinating performance. King International
