Quartetto PrometeoAbout
The three quartets recorded here were written over a time span of forty one years, but despite this long range of time, Sciarrino’s idiosyncratic musicality is recognizable in every piece. However, each of the three pieces included in this collection is starkly individual, an ‘interruption’ within the ‘continuity’ of Sciarrino’s oeuvre.
In Quartetto No.7, we are confronted with the composer’s attempt to transfer techniques he developed for voice writing to strings, and in Sei quartette brevi with the enduring legacy of both Beethoven and the post-war avant-garde. This concept of a conscious historical dialog through a personal filter is also present in the Quartetto No.8.
