The Complete String Quartets


À paraître en janvier :

John Zorn: The Complete String Quartets [#9318-2]

The world class JACK Quartet, both individually and as an ensemble, have had a personal relationship with Zorn for well over a decade. Here they deliver passionate and virtuosic recordings of his complete string quartets. Zorn’s writing for strings is legendary, and his eight string quartets, written in a thirty-year period from 1988–2017, are some of the most important and original works of the late 20th–early 21st century. Each piece is a unique world of its own, but all carry a dramatic narrative arc, a connection to tradition, and all push the players technically right to the edge of impossibility. Imaginative, challenging, and filled with color and a wealth of emotions, this is new music at its best. Includes a 36-page booklet with extensive notes, scores, and appreciations by the musicians. 1. Cat O’ Nine Tails 2. Dead Man 3. Memento Mori 4. Kol Nidre 5. Necronomicon 6. The Alchemist 7. The Remedy of Fortune 8. The Unseen
