Work introduction
My sixth quartet is a single-movement work bound up with ideas of loss and remembrance, particularly in relation to the 9/11 attacks which took place just before I began writing. The piece is dedicated to the memory of my maternal grandmother, who died just after I completed it.
In fretta, in vento was written for the Callino Quartet.
