Company - Borusan Quartet - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

Taking its title from the 2nd String Quartet by Philip Glass, the Borusan Quartet's exciting new album focuses on contemporary repertoire. Embracing the spiritual minimalism of Arvo Pärt's Summa, to the expansive 4th Quartet of Peteris Vasks. The world of theatre is background to the Glass. The source of this Quartet was a 1983 dramatization of Samuel Beckett's prose poem 'Company'. Traditional music from the Borusan Quartet's homeland and in particular Anatolia is to be found in the String Quartet No.2 'The Untold' by Turkish composer Uҫarsu. It draws on Turkish folk music and traditions, especially the festival of 'Hidrelliz' which celebrates the coming of Summer. The songs of Neşet Ertaş were in the composer's mind when writing this quartet especially in the 2nd movement.
