1983, rev.1992
This piece is related to ancient Greek music fragments from Delphi. Scales sometimes use old enharmonic modes with almost quartertones.
The quartet is a kind of "program music", since the movements paint some of my reactions to a play of Heinrich von Kleist, "Penthesilea".
The titles of the movements are:
1st PAIAN (ancient song, related to Apollon)
2nd AULODIA (related to Dionysos)
3rd CACCIA (related to Diana)
After this evocation of the three gods, a scenery on earth follows:
4th PENTHESILEA A THEMISCYRA
5th IL TORMENTO D'ACHILLE
6th EPILOGO D'APOLLO - UN FRAMMENTO
