The Arneis Quartet explores how musical ideas evolve across time on MOVING SHAPES from Albany Records, with a program pairing Classical clarity with Romantic expression and modern experimentation.
Works by Joseph Haydn and Fanny Hensel reflect the quartet tradition’s early foundations and lyrical expansion, while Ruth Crawford Seeger reimagines structure through bold modernist counterpoint. The title work by Elena Ruehr, written for the ensemble, adds a contemporary perspective. Throughout, the Arneis Quartet emphasizes precision and balance, drawing clear connections between tradition and innovation.
