Synopsis

Album Description
"Most enjoyable performances of engaging works that have absorbed a wide range of influences whilst remaining true to their own logic and direction." -- Musicweb-International Recorded in 2006, this album contains the complete string quartets of American composer and Pulitzer Prize winner Wayne Peterson. Fellow San Francisco residents and SF State University faculty colleagues the Alexander String Quartet championed their octogenarian colleague's quartets, commissioning two of them and adding the earlier 1983 "First" Quartet to complete this collection.
