String Trio No. 2

My second string trio is a more large-scale piece than the compact, single-movement first, written just over a decade ago. It is made up of seven short movements, each one picking up an idea, or a note left hanging from the preceding one, and taking it in quite different directions. This continues until the last two movements revisit much more thoroughly the athletic, fanfare-like material heard right at the beginning of the first. © Huw Watkins Schwierigkeitsgrad: 5
