Our Take

The latest offering from the enigmatic SERKINMARTINBRENTANO STR QRT, Wuorinenchamber Music, is a mind-bending journey through the avant-garde depths of contemporary classical music. With a name like that, you know you’re in for something special – or at the very least, something that defies all conventional norms.

Featuring a collection of chamber music compositions by the legendary Charles Wuorinen, this album is not for the faint of heart. Wuorinen’s complex, dissonant compositions will challenge even the most seasoned classical music aficionados, inviting them to dive headfirst into a swirling sea of intricate harmonies and unpredictable rhythms.

From the frenetic energy of “String Quartet No. 3” to the haunting beauty of “Fortune,” Wuorinen’s compositions are a masterclass in pushing the boundaries of traditional classical music. The SERKINMARTINBRENTANO STR QRT bring these compositions to life with their impeccable musicianship and unwavering commitment to artistic excellence.

Listeners may find themselves simultaneously mesmerised and perplexed by the sheer audacity of Wuorinen’s musical vision. But for those willing to take the plunge, Wuorinenchamber Music offers a thrilling and rewarding sonic experience that is not to be missed. Strap in, hold on tight, and prepare to have your musical boundaries pushed to their breaking point.
