Reviews
The first quartet, which was written shortly after the composer's student days, is rarely played but gives an intriguing early glimpse of his trademark repetitions emerging from behind a darkly expressionist soundworld. The second quartet,
is the Glass quartet everyone knows, but the rest are equslly worthwhile: neo-Bachian purity and idiosyncratic harmonic shifts in abundance.
Philip Clark, Classic Fm Magazine, 01 June 2008
