Tippett, a visionary in the neoclassical genre, presents a masterful collection of his String Quartet No. 3 and String Quartet No. 5, each movement a testament to his compositional brilliance. The album opens with the profound "Grave e sostenuto" and traverses through a spectrum of moods and tempos, from the introspective "Andante" to the lively "Allegro molto e con brio."
