about

The composer of Julietta left seven string quartets that do not, by any means, form a cycle but rather a succession of testimonies stretching from 1920 to 1947. This second volume juxtaposed the French Quartet (No. 1), a lengthy and luxurious, homage to Debussy and Dvořák, the shortest (No. 3) “Pocket”-Quartet and the Sixth written in the post-war utopia, a fantastic counterpoint of madrigals for strings with astonishing polymelodicism, introduction da camera to last Symphony No. 6 (Symphonic Fantasies, 1951-1953), with his earnest, struggling character and high symphonic spirit.
