Noc­turne

Nocturne accompanies a piece of music, Night-turn for strings, from its birth in the composer’s head, via the arrangement of the interpretations and through rehearsals to its premiere, in this case the first reading of the notes by the musicians of the renowned Kairos Quartet. Featuring also the intellectual, sensory and emotional factors involved, this is a portrait of Dmitri Kourliandski’s inventive compositional methods as well as the working dynamics of a contemporary quartet.
