- Gabe Gladstein, Mads Tolling, Emily Onderdonk, and Joe Hebert performing Gabe's piece, Savannah. Gabe composed the piece for jazz string quartet for the Acoustic String Seminar in Savannah, Georgia in April 2012.
If you close your eyes while listening to this, it is easy to picture an overworld theme in a final fantasy game. An epic fantasy jaunt through a wonderful sonic landscape. This is awesome on so many levels.
As a violinist, I particularly love it every time I come across a string quartet playing jazz (whether or not that's their main thing).. It always makes me want to try composing jazz for a string quartet/ensemble (which I keep talking about to my friends but have yet to do that)! This piece is such a delight to listen to!
The harmonies are so fresh and bright- love it!!
Amazing performance and amazing recording.... Thank you, I really listen to the detail...
love this
Beautiful. Could totally put this song to a nice open world adventure rpg. Gets you in the mood to explore imo. Crazy intense and inspiring; thanks.

hey! so beautiful song!
Love it. Really swings.
That was so refreshing for my ears. Very nice!
Totally Loved it!
this made me miss my saxophone & performing jazz with a group :( They all look so in tune with eachother in the heat of the moment
Fantastic!!!!
Beautiful 😍
Awesome piece!
i love this this is so ❤️
wow amazing recording guys
Wowww amazing❤️❤️❤️
Great music!
Wonderful
a very energetic and engaging piece! great stuff.
Hey Gabe, I am composing a multimovement string quartet right now and thinking of doing different styles. First movement is folk, second movement is latin, and third movement is jazz, and fourth (last) movement would be more country/mountain style. Thank you for posting your composition out! It is a good thing to listen and do one's own thing when composing!
Looking forward to hearing you at Rossmoor tomorrow!
Bravo!!!
Great playing!

Awesome sauce!!

Hi Gabe, Nice n beautiful. Can pls u suggest any music books for Jazz String quartet?
YEAH man! nice composition and great solo! totally diggin it :) have you wrote more quartets?
I've written a few arrangements, but haven't yet written another quartet. I'm more focused on singing and songwriting these days. Thanks for the comment!
Bravo
Красавчики!
like it
I love this piece! I wanna compose music like that , but i don't know where it start! It isn't jazz... what kind of music is this?
It definitely is Jazz... but the early stuff... explore ragtime and early swing and you will find grooves reflective of this
its more of a contemporary style of music i would almost be considered contemporary classical if not for the bassline and the slides
I would love to have sheet music as well if you have it available for purchase. Thanks!
Great job!!!!
Where can I find the scores???
Thank you! I own the sheet music. If you're interested, write to hiregabegladstein@icloud.com.
Amazing! Do you do recording sessions? (violin/string quartet?)
Would love to get connected over email for work!
Great!!! do you have the music sheets of this?
This could hardly be any older...but yes! I do have the sheet music. If you're interested, write to hiregabegladstein@icloud.com.
@@gabegladstein hey gabe! Very inspiring, im also very interested in the sheets !
İf you share your lively notes We will wery happy. I want to play it very much
very cool, i guess i jumped the gun, i would love to see the solos go round the group and develope off each other, just adding another level
+huck p Totally get it, I would love to see it too. Reason I didn't do it here was probably two-fold, 1. Mads would have made me look like a kid holding a piece of wood rather than a violinist and 2. this was originally for an audition that I was doing, so the other musicians' purposes really were to play back up. You're right on the money though, other solos and trading 4's would really make this interesting. Check out ua-cam.com/video/xKDwzihp1GI/v-deo.html for a jazz string quartet playing a great standard!
+Gabe Gladstein i never knew, thats awsome, now im more motivated/discouraged to practice with urs and that video fresh in my ears, haha
What's the technique used by the second violin in the third minute?
It's called 'Chopping' or 'The Chop' Originally invented by bluegrass fiddler, Richard Green, developed further by Darol Anger, ( ua-cam.com/video/8Lud1IMpJm4/v-deo.html ) and taken to another level by Casey Driesen (ua-cam.com/video/ZfvVyKiiFGE/v-deo.html ) and Tracy Silverman ( ua-cam.com/video/R6CPH3jsf0g/v-deo.html He calls it 'vertical' Strum bowing'). The technique has gone viral among non-traditional - ie non classical players.
Is it possible to have score ?
hi how can i have this quartet sheet music?
Sounds like some Quarter Chicken Dark.
this is cool, but i would love to see a real jazz string quartet with all the comping improvised and everyone really able to solo, cello does bass line obviously, but maybe some guidelines for other two who arent soloing like one does 1 and 3 and other does 5 and 7 or maybe like one does upper structure and the other lower? idk but it would be a great thing to see (would need some great musicians)
+huck p Appreciate the feedback Huck, but I have to tell you that every single thing you hear between 1:55 and 4:00 in this video is improvised -- the comping, the solo, the interactions, all of it! The four of us had played together a few times before, and that day we had already been playing together for almost two hours, so our chemistry was pretty good at that point, but the improv was real! 4:23 to 5:04 (just before the last note) was another section of pure improvisation.
+huck p You're right that there are folks who do this better, though, and they're called the Turtle Island Quartet. Check them out when you have a chance, if my stuff isn't quite cutting it for you!
+Gabe Gladstein You guys amazing!
eating crow isnt so bad when u learn something, haha, i would love to see some standards, all the things you are would be awsome
it takes more than a little swing and syncopation to be jazz, maybe it should be called jazz "inspired" string quartet do to lack of any improve which really characterizes jazz
Hello do u think can I have the sheet music ?
