Burnished Silver, for string quartet, Score and parts

ISMN: 979-0-2025-3334-5

Originally composed for clarinet quartet, this minimalist habanera swings between two chords in a melancholy way until a rather lively middle section is reminiscent of Astor Piazzolla's bitter-sweet harmony. On the CD Blue Silence (Vexations840 1202) the Acacia Quartet combined this piece with Silver Pearls (979-0-2025-3342-0), Silver Poetry (979-0-2025-3341-3) and Silver Eucalypt (979-0-2025-3331-4) to form Silver Suite. Whether played individually or as a four-movement group - this is a charming new repertoire for both professional and amateur ensembles!
