SUMMARY:Restless Melodies
DESCRIPTION:This HSQ concert features two pillars of the 20th century 
 quartet literature, as well as a wonderfully evocative composition by 
 American composer Erica Ball. After Germany broke their non-aggression
  pact and invaded the Soviet Union in 1941, Prokofiev and many other a
 rtists were evacuated to the Caucasus, where they came across a rich w
 orld of folk music native to the region. Encouraged to write something
  using these novel folk melodies, Prokofiev gives us a quartet that is
  equally defiant, sweet, whimsical, and forceful. Bartók’s hauntin
 g sixth quartet comes from a time of extreme stress and anxiety for th
 e composer; as Europe churned towards conflict in the late 1930s and w
 ith his mother extremely ill, Bartók chose to stay in Budapest with h
 er through the end of her life even though he was frequently in confli
 ct with the pro-Nazi leanings of his native Hungary. Much of his anxie
 ty and deep sadness at the loss of his mother permeates the sixth quar
 tet - one of the last works of Bartók - including a twisted, limping 
 military march, a sneering, sarcastic burlesque, and a profoundly mour
 nful final movement. \n\nErica Ball, “w(e)aving” for String Quart
