Description
for oboe, violin, viola, cello. 20 minutes.
Composer note
The quartet for oboe and string trio was commissioned by Chamber Music Northwest, the Great Lakes Chamber Music Festival, and Music from Angel Fire. They graciously allowed the World Premiere to take place during the 50th anniversary season of the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival. The piece’s dedication reads: “For Steven Ovitsky with gratitude, respect, and friendship.”
The structure consists of 10 movements, which are short enough that I refer to them as “parts” rather than movements. They are analogous to a web or weaving and present several strands or musical aspects, which evolve and expand. So, for example, parts 1, 5, and 9 are one strand, and parts 3, 6, and 8 are another. Part 10 is a culmination of both those strands.
