In the entire history of pop and rock, no band has so dominated the music scene as original brit-poppers the Beatles did in the 1960s. For this medley for string quartet, four songs were selected that show the musical range of the Fab Four: from the powerful Help! through the romantic evergreen Yesterday and the rock classic A Hard Dayâ??s Night to the passionate anthem All You Need Is Love. In de Pop and Rock geschiedenis heeft geen enkele ander band de muziekscene zo gedomineerd als The Beatles tijdens de jaren zestig. In deze medley voor strijkkwartet zijn vier songs geselecteerd die de muzikale verscheidenheid van de Fab Four goed weerspiegelen: van het krachtige Help! via de romantische evergreen Yesterday en de rockklassieker A Hard Dayâ??s Night tot het hartstochtelijke All You Need Is Love. In der gesamten Geschichte der Pop- und Rockmusik gab es keine andere Band, die die Musikszene so beherrscht hat, wie es bei der britischen Popband The Beatlesâ?? in den 1960er Jahren der Fall war. Für dieses Medley für Streichquartett wurden vier Stücke ausgewählt, welche die musikalische Bandbreite der Fab Fourâ?? (berühmten Vierâ??) zeigen: vom mitreiÃ?enden Help! über den klassischen Evergreen Yesterday und den Rock-Klassiker A Hard Dayâ??s Night bis hin zu der leidenschaftlichen Hymne All You Need Is Love.Dans lâ??histoire du pop et du rock, aucun groupe nâ??a autant marqué les esprits que le groupe de Britpop The Beatles dans les années 1960. Ce medley pour quatuor cordes regroupe quatre chansons représentant lâ??individualité de ces quatre musiciens : du puissant Help ! en passant par le romantique Yesterday et le classique du rock A Hard Dayâ??s Night jusquâ?? lâ??hymne All You Need Is Love.

Traditionally a string quartet will not readily take on pop music. But times are changing and the classic quartet line-up proves suitable for beautiful arrangements of contemporary songs as well. This book features three hits from past decades, The Rose (Bette Midler) with its simple, pure sounds and underlying harmonies, La Solitudine (Laura Pausini) - compelling and with a hidden energy and finally Wonderwall (Oasis), an unexpected choice, with its persistent rhythmic background. To allow the string quartet to play together with optional guitar or keyboard, chord symbols have been added in the score. These songs - which certainly have a passionate andromantic ring to them - are ideal for receptions, weddings and other festive occasions. (Position 1-5) Drie bekende songs in geslaagde bewerkingen voor strijkkwartet: Pop Ballads for String Quartet bewijst dat het kan. Om het strijkkwartet de mogelijkheid te bieden samen te spelen met gitaar of keyboards zijn akkoordsymbolentoegevoegd in de partituur. Deze songs vol passie en romantiek zijn ideaal voor het opluisteren van recepties, bruiloften en andere feestelijke gelegenheden. (Position 1-5)Ein Buch für alle Streicher, die anstatt der klassischen Literatur für Streichquartett auch einmal etwas ganz Modernes, Unterhaltsames spielen wollen. Hans Aerts und Gunter Van Rompaey bearbeiteten für diese Ausgabe drei bekannte Pop- Titel für zwei Violinen, Viola und Cello. Akkordsymbole für eine Begleitung von Keyboard oder Gitarre sind ebenfalls enthalten.(Position 1-5) Ce recueil contient trois succès des dernières décennies : The Rose, avec ses sonorités simples et épurées et ses harmonies demi cachées ; La Solitudine, l‘énergie dissimulée et enfin Wonderwall, un choix inattendu dont le tapis sonore est continuellement rythmé. Des symboles d’accords ont été ajoutés sur la partition afin de permettre au quatuor cordes de se faire accompagner d’une guitare ou clavier (partie optionnelle). (Position 1-5)Questa pubblicazione permetter ai giovani musicisti di cominciare a suonare in gruppo.

Richard Reed Parry 's Quartet For Heart And Breath is an innovative and original piece based on the performers' own bodily rhythms. This sheet music is for String Quartet (Violin/Violin/Viola/Cello). Richard Reed Parry is familiarto millions as the lead singer of rock band Arcade Fire, yet his foray into classical music is equally worthy of attention. Quartet For Heart And Breath is an experiment into using the performers' heartbeats and breathing to dictate the tempo. The performers are instructed to wear stethoscopes in order to listen to their heartbeats closely, while one complete breath corresponds to one bar and two heartbeats equal two crotchets. The result is a quiet and subtle piece, as each instrument has to play softly so as to be able to keep in time. The piece also has a naturally occurring dynamism in that the players' heart rates constantly change as the performance goes on, with each instrument falling in and out of sync sometimes culminating in a beautiful moment of all heartbeats matching each other. Interestingly, this unique aspect means that no performance will ever be the same, meaning to hear or play this composition will be a truly once in a lifetime experience. Quartet For Heart And Breath is a superbly one-of-a-kind composition by Richard Reed Parry . Commissioned by the Kronos Quartet, this piece makes for a wonderfully distinctive performance, with fascinating implications for the connection between the music and the body.

Holmboe's last quartet work, which is unofficially also String Quartet No. 21, was the last work he ever composed, and was unfinished on his death in 1996. His pupil Per Nørgård has finished the quartet, and himself characterizes his contribution by saying that the score existed “in an only partly completed form, which could however be written out with only a few cases of doubt”. With only two movements and a playing time of about nine minutes it is at its existing length the shortest of Holmboe's string quartets. The first movement takes the form of one long arch in a rocking triple time which constantly shiftsamong different tempo and pulse sensations. At the same time the rhythmic energy increases until the movement, in a faster Con moto tempo accelerates to a more flowing 12/8 time, coloured both rhythmically by cross-rhythms in duple time and timbrally by harmonics in the viola. In its middle section, Con fuoco, the movement culminates in both tempo and expression until it falls calm in brief recapitulations in reverse order of the first two sections. The rocking feeling continues in the second movement, but now at a more extroverted level from the outset, Allegro and pizzicato. The energy builds up further as the mood intensifies to Con fuoco, while all instruments go over to bowed playing, but like the first movement, this movement ends Adagio here however not as a gradual attenuation but through a sudden shift in tempo to a calm, imitative passage before the movement slowly thins out to the almost inaudible through a last, dense, open sounding chord with a brief violin solo above it.
The quartet is dedicated to Holmboe's wife MeLa May Holmboe, and was given its first performance by the Kontra Quartet on 22nd March 1997 at the Carl Nielsen Academy of Music in Odense, Denmark.
