Tippett QuartetAbout
On this first disc of the complete Quartets, the tuneful String Quartet No.1 is followed by the String Quartet No.2, notable for its abundant lyricism and lithe, dancing rhythms.
In sharp contrast to both these works stands the more dissonant String Quartet No.4, an unbroken sequence of numbered movements, which reflect the String Quartet Op.131 of Tippett’s compositional hero, Beethoven.
The Tippett Quartet is one of Britain’s most exciting young string quartets, founded in 1998. They are committed to combining mainstream repertoire with contemporary works and have been described as “bold and innovative” by The Times.
The Tippett Quartet:
- John Mills (violin I)
- Jeremy Isaac (violin II)
- Maxine Moore (viola)
- Bozidar Vukotic (cello)
