The Sound of Silence: mediated between these cultures as an essayist. Hosokawa rarely turns to analogies from early Japanese lyric poetry to explain his music. Far more often he refers to the tradition of calligraphy. He ‘paints’ his compositions on the background of stillness, a canvas of silence. The QUATUOR DIOTIMA was founded by graduates of the Paris and Lyon Conservatories. They were awarded First Prize at the FNAPEC Competition, Paris (1999) and the Contemporary Music Prize at the London String Quartet Competition (2000). “Hosokawa likens his music to Japanese calligraphy, and this exquisite anthology of works for string quartet the Quatuor Diotima draw all the lines with exemplary grace and reticence.” BBC Music Magazine, April 2013 ***** |
