Oorspronklik

String Quartet No.3 was written for, and first performed by the Balanescu Quartet, February 1990 at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, London. Duration 16 minutes. A score is available on sale. Quoting composer. In the summer of 1989 I composed a choral work, Out of the Ruins , for Agnieszka Piotrowska’s BBC2 documentary which dealt with the physical and emotional responses of some inhabitants of Leninakhan to the earthquake which devastated Armenia the previous December. When he heard the recording of the work that I made with the Holy Echmiadzin Chorus under the fervent conducting of Khoren Meykhanejian, Alex Balanescu suggested turning Out of the Ruins into a string quartet. There seemed no reason or opportunity to do this until I felt the need to add to the intensity of my experiences in Armenia the no less profound experience of witnessing the images of the Romanian revolution on television during the later part of December 1989. The compositional procedure was as follows. to take Out of the Ruins as a template on which the Romanian vocal or instrumental music would be superimposed, quite often stretched into new intervallic shapes though the demands of the completely performed harmonic structure.

String Quartet No.3 is geskryf vir, en die eerste keer deur die Balanescu Quartet Februarie 1990 by die Queen Elizabeth Hall, Londen. Duur 16 minute. A score is available on sale. Vermelding komponis. In die somer van 1989 het ek 'n koorwerk, uit die ruïnes, vir Agnieszka Piotrowska se BBC2 dokumentêre wat gehandel het oor die fisiese en emosionele reaksies van sommige inwoners van Leninakhan die aardbewing wat verwoes Armenië die vorige Desember saamgestel. Toe hy hoor die opname van die werk wat ek gemaak het met die Heilige Echmiadzin Chorus onder die vurige uitvoering van Khoren Meykhanejian, Alex Balanescu voorgestel draai uit die ruïnes in 'n strykkwartet. Daar was geen rede of geleentheid om dit te doen totdat ek voel die behoefte om by te voeg tot die intensiteit van my ervarings in Armenië die nie minder diepgaande ervaring van die getuie van die beelde van die Roemeense revolusie op televisie gedurende die later deel van Desember 1989. Die komposisionele prosedure was soos volg. uit die ruïnes as 'n sjabloon op wat die Roem vokale of instrumentale musiek sou gesuperponeer word om te neem, dikwels gestrek tot nuwe intervallic vorms al die vereistes van die heeltemal uitgevoer harmoniese struktuur.
