AGP121 is the
second of two featuring works by the influential American composer
Lukas Foss. These works from the late 1970s show even clearer
minimalist tendencies than those in AGP120, again with more complex
harmonies than in the works of the leading minimalists of that time.
The String Quartet No. 3 sounds like something Steve Reich might have
written if he had been a serial killer. In places, it reminds me of
George Crumb's Black Angels for amplified string quartet. The
transcription was generally successful, but not surprisingly had some
tracking distortion during the dense, loud conclusion at the end of the
LP side. To download
