String Quartet #1, by Edwin Sheard

String Quartet #1

by Edwin Sheard

supported by

Bob Spector Delicious harmonies worthy of Debussy, and at least one tune worthy of Dvorak. The work is complex enough to please the mind; the performance (by an ad-hoc ensemble, it seems) is far better than merely workmanlike. I listen to this again and again with pleasure -- and hope for more from the composer. Can't really pick a "favorite track", since it's a coherent whole. Favorite track: II. Largo.
