| This movement has a repetitive pattern in the viola throughout the entire piece. This pattern serves as a pedal for the other voices, which have very complex themes and meters. The viola serves as a metronome as well, giving a fixed meter against which the other voices can play. |

| Again, the viola plays a repetitive figure throughout the movement. The other voices play very complex passages against the viola's simple background. |

| This four-movement quartet is the most "romantic" piece I have written, but it is not in the traditional 19th century romantic style. The first movement is an allegretto. |

| The romantic feeling is abandoned in this last movement, and the music returns to a more modern style. This short allegro is a little over a minute long. |

| This allegro begins with an ascending passage in the first violin that reaches the instrument's highest register. After some development, this ascending passage returns near the end. |

| This is the first movement of the third quartet of a series of string quartets I have written over the past few years. It is a lyrical adagio in a rather free form with a continuous interplay between dissonance and consonance. |

| This movement is a largo in ABA' form with a contrasting andante middle section. When the largo returns in the A' section the melodic and rhythmic structures are similar to those in the A section, but the harmony changes to a much darker mood. |

|
| This fifth and last movement is in the form of a canon, with each instrument, beginning with the cello, entering in turn. The theme is treated at first in strick imitation, but later there is some development. The canon theme returns near the end. This movement features the cello and viola. |
