Rich and personal
contributions to the
quartet tradition from four
contemporary Scottish
composing voices, ranging
from the lyrical profundity
of Kenneth Dempster’s
meditation on a George
Mackay Brown poem
to a characteristically
idiosyncratic and yet songful
work by Judith Weir. Under
their new leader Charles
Mutter, the Edinburgh
Quartet deliver blazing,
committed performances
celebrating the immense
variety and vitality of
work on offer.
‘a bright sound with a ring of steel around
it that is ideal for modern music’
