About

Chapter Six of the collection that Stradivarius, in collaboration with RAI Radio 3, dedicates to the prestigious Milano Musica Festival, one of the most important Contemporary Classical Music festivals in Italy.

While Ligeti asserted, in presenting the 'Kammerkonzert', that the work could be regarded as a “lighter treatment” of the Quartet No.2, written two years previously, this could not be said of the virtuoso quality of the instrumental action.

In the wide-ranging works of Kurtág, the string quartet occupies a pre-eminent position. The 6 'Moments musicaux' for string quartet, dedicated to his son György, were written for the Bordeaux International String Quartet Competition (June 2005).

Bartók finished composing 'Szabadban' in 1926. More than a suite in a traditional sense, it is a collection with a common esoteric spirit of particular motives.
