    • Quartet No. 6 (Ma) - String Orchestra Arrangement
    Matthew Whiteside

    Description

    This piece was written while I was staying in an Air BnB in Tallinn, Estonia and begin life when I picked up a set of windchimes the owner had left lying around. The piece is an orchestration of those chimes and imagines a great hand jiggling the quartet to initiate each gesture.

    Duration 12 minutes
    Instrumentation Violin 1 (section) [4 players]; Violin 2 (section) [3 players]; Viola (section) [3 players]; Cello [2 players]; Double bass [1 player]
