Description
Structurally, Quarantine Quartet consists of a germ motif heard at the beginning and a short theme that begins with the ascending sixth of the germ motif. This short theme is immediately fragmented and imitated among the four instruments. There are two slower fugato sections; the subject of each is a rhythmic variant of the short theme. In the second fugato, each entry of the subject is varied rhythmically. At the end of the piece each of the three ideas (the first theme and the two fugato subjects) is played successively in stretto. Near the end of the piece, all three ideas are twice played simultaneously. The opening motif is heard at various points in the piece and very prominently at the end.
