Notes on this piece
Arquesting
Arquesting explores a traditional instrumental configuration, the string quartet, from a new perspective. The typical predominant role of the first violin is negated by the equal treatment of the four integrants of the quartet. In Arquesting, no instrument is more important than the other and each one participates in the structural discourse of the piece. Arquesting explores the relation of two different modes of articulation, the bowed and plucked string, by integrating both in the driving force of the piece. Arquesting was premiered by the Contemporary Music Ensemble of Northwestern University on October, 2002 at the Regenstein Concert Hall in Evanston, Illinois, USA. The Chilean premiere took place with occasion of the VII International Contemporary Music Festival of the University of Chile, in January 2007.
