Robert Saxton: String Quartets No. 3 & 4, Solo Violin Sonata 'Reflections in Time' New Album Preview
This new album brings together three major works by Robert Saxton that redefine the expressive and structural potential of the string quartet and solo violin. Performed by the renowned Kreutzer Quartet and violinist Peter Sheppard Skærved, this album captures Saxton’s unique ability to merge intellectual precision with deeply evocative storytelling. From the intricate modal landscapes of String Quartet No. 3 to the introspective symmetry of Reflections in Time for solo violin and the vast harmonic ascent of String Quartet No. 4, these works chart a course through memory, transformation, and renewal. A vital addition to the contemporary string repertoire, this album is an essential listen for those drawn to the emotional and structural depth of modern chamber music.
