‘High in the sky singing‘ and ‘Dark, Heavy and Earthy’ are among the descriptions applied to the four movements of Quartet No. 4 by Hans Abrahamsen, Oliver Knussen’s Professor of Composition at London’s Royal Academy of Music. JACK Quartet places the Danish composer’s vibrant score in company with Wolfgang Rihm’s impassioned ‘Im Innersten’, composed 50 years ago yet utterly compelling in its contemporary relevance.
