Comments welcome. The work explores the possibilities of a 4 note motif -that is transformed throughout the entire work.

Transition into 41 was nice, and I could have used a lot more of that smoothness throughout the rest of it, like the first transition; it felt a bit off to me. A little more rhythmic ambiguity ambiguity might be nice a la Bartok, since the syncopations there now I don't think quite get that effect.

Typesetting: Add rehearsal marks to your scores and have the bar lines go through the entire quartet. Also bracket the systems.

 

Music:  once again, very bartokian.   Some great moments in here.   Repeat meas. 120-121, then try inserting that at 127 up a Maj 3rd to really bring it together. Also, maybe at 130, the violoncello could go octavobasso to give it more range. 

 

My $0.02.  BRAVO.
