Boris Papandopulo - Papandopulo: The Complete String Quartets; Guitar Quartet; Clarinet Quartet - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

The Croatian composer Boris Papandopulo (1906-1991) has had a home in our catalog for a number of years. Until now, it was mainly concertante works and chamber music involving the piano that allowed us to hear an astonishingly idiosyncratic personality, even in his (relatively rare) use of modern compositional techniques. Now cpo is enriching the multifaceted profile of this striking artist with the of the string quartets, which reflect practically the entire creative life span of the man from Zagreb Folkloristic influences, the inevitabilities of the socialist-realist doctrine, the experiments with the compositional achievements of the West - all this combines to form a great musical Inchdocumentary filmInch, in which the extremely expressive Clarinet Quintet, composed during wartime, and the concise, playful Guitar Quartet also play no insignificant role.
