BOHUSLAV MARTINŮ : String Quartet No. 6, H.312
Thursday 1 May, 1947 – Harvard University
The Walden String Quartet
Edition Bärenreiter Praha, 2006 (H 7968)
"String Quartet No. 6 differs considerably from Martinů's previous Quartets. It represents a major step on a road which the composer characterised as the development from “geometry to fantasy”; it is music dislodged from all certainty. Typical for the whole work, which is constructed around three movements, is his most constant use of the principle of progressive variation, uneasy harmonic development, pulsating yet fine rhythmical values, and inventive treatment of sound.” – Aleš Březina
