	Malcolm Arnold and the String Quartet (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Arnold and Bartók share another attribute in their quartets, and it constitutes a paradox that would have aroused the suspicions of Hans Keller, who was always at pains to point to the links between quartet playing and quartet composing.
		As a result of the shift, the quartet became a cruder medium, and even a string player like Britten was forced to compromise (until that most private of his works, his third quartet).
		The string quartet does not have to be the most personal and intimate of forms, but it is scarcely surprising nonetheless that it has often acquired something of a confessional character: Arnold is no exception to this rule.

		After Mozart’s famous ‘Dissonance’ Quartet K. 465, with its perplexing introduction, we will hear Shostakovich’s powerful String Quartet No. 8, written in 1960, infused with his musical signature D-S-C-H (D-E flat-C-B) already used in his Symphony No.
		Stravinsky’s Three Pieces are a fascinating instance of his experiments with a variety of techniques of rhythm and pitch, written only a year after the Rite of Spring in 1914 and whose anti-romanticism contrasts markedly with the rich nineteenth-century sentiment of Tchaikovsky’s String Quartet No. 1 of 1871, well known for its ‘Andante cantabile’.
