String Quartet no. 1 has strong roots in neo-Romanticism, while
pushing the limits of polytonality and extended harmonies. This
four movement work displays the expressive quality and aggressive
side of the string instruments in the ensemble. The composition is
in f minor and uses a harmonic progression of i-vii-V-i, which also
extends to the tonal areas of the 4 movements. Although some
traditional harmonic elements are used, tonality is pushed to its
limits through the use of 2 or more harmonies played
simultaneously. This is a highly rhythmic string quartet based off
the composer's percussion background. Duration: 19 minutes
