Thomas Schuttenhelm provides a detailed account of the events
leading up to and throughout the compositional process associated
with Michael Tippett's Fifth String Quartet and a comprehensive
analysis of the entire quartet. The commentary discusses this work
in the context of Tippett's creative development and places it
within the historical context of the genre of the string quartet.
The commentary includes interviews with the members of the Lindsay
String Quartet, who premiered the work, as well as previously
unpublished letters from the composer and interviews with Tippett
in which he discusses the quartet in detail. Special attention is
given to Tippett's preliminary attempts, which were only recently
discovered (2011) and to the evidence that suggests he altered the
original ending. Included are images from the composer's
sketchbooks and manuscripts, as well as the original beginning and
the altered ending.
