String Quartet Nº 1 : in E minor / Maarten ter Horst

Description:
String Quartet No. 1 consists of four movements and describes four phases in a personal crisis, a journey from frustration to courage. The movements successively represent anger, sadness, a growing sense of perspective and finally, the strength to steer one’s own life. This work forms a cycle with String Quartet No. 2.
