At times quick and iridescent, at others spacious and rapt, Gerald Levinson's STRING QUARTET reveals a personal, contemporary language, blending luminous textures and expressive intensity into a work of striking imagination and depth. References to birds in the third and fifth movement titles bring to mind Levinson's teacher, Olivier Messiaen, who was fascinated with birdsong as a source of melody, rhythm, color, and spiritual resonance. Astonishing in construction and affect, Levinson's STRING QUARTET is a major addition to its genre. For advanced performers.
