String Quartet No. 3 (Aspects of Peltoniemi Hintrik's Funeral March
The third string quartet (1969) by Sallinen is the most frequently performed of Sallinen's quartets, and it is also known in a version for string orchestra. The subtitle refers to a Finnish fiddler tune, heard at the beginning of the quartet. In the course of the work, this tune is cast in a variety of settings through modern variation techniques giving the work the character of a modern chaconne. Sallinen spices it with his own wit (an aborted fugue and bastardised baroque cadences for example) as well as skilful handling of violinistic timbral gestures.
Please note that the version for string orchestra is rental material. Contact hire@fennicagehrman.fi for further information.
