Description:
String Quartet No.2 was written for the New Zealand String Quartet in 1998. The work was inspired by the virtuosity and energy of the quartet’s performances. Subtitled Ghost Dances, the piece evolves through a web of dance-like sections exploring a wide range of string techniques. Fragments of melody and harmony are transformed into ghost-like noises as part of the expressive character of the piece. It was first performed at the Victoria University School of Music in 1999.
