Ce n'est pas seulement en ce qui concerne l'instrumentation que le Sonanzen quintette à cordes (un jeu de 'consonance' les mots et 'dissonance') suit l'exemple célèbre de Schubert, et même Tristan de Wagner est présent sous la forme de citations pour exprimer un classique musique d'amour et d'adieu. La prise de Hölderlin 'Wie der Zwist der Liebenden sind die Welt der Dissonanzen' comme un mot d'ordre, le travail a été composé comme une 'tentative de l'impossible rêve de l'amour - et sa transcendance'. / Quintette A Cordes

Revisiting The Don is a piece of music composed by Michael Nyman for the album 'Mozart 252' a celebration of the 250th anniversary of Mozart's birth. Revisiting The Don is one of the twonewly-composed works on this album and is arranged here as parts for String Quintet. Nyman himself states that 'as the title suggests I revisit the same harmonic material thatmakes 'In Re Don Giovanni' so powerful and come up with more lyrical 'solutions'.' The result is a wonderful piece beginning with a smooth staccato that lays the foundations for wonderful lilting melodies. The piece graduallyprogresses to widen out the warm strings making this piece a real joy to play.
