"As versatile as the Kronos Quartet, and
smoother than the Brodskys, The Smith Quartet have edged ahead of
their competitors in contemporary chamber music"
The Independent on Sunday
" ... compelling blend of live ensemble and electronics"
Journal for Music in Ireland
Following on from the release of their critically acclaimed recording
of Reich’s Different Trains on Signum, Britain’s leading contemporary
string ensemble, The Smith Quartet, perform the works of five diverse
British composers.
The music is inspired by the ancient English landscape, 9th century
Irish poetry, 20th century human tragedy and the passing of friends.
