Thank you, Minimal effort, for including that description about the basis for this quartet. The "Unchained Melody" quote is a sweet touch on Nyman's part. ;)
This piece is a different one in quite a few respects from the String Quarter no.1 recorded by the Balanescu Qt on ARGO in the 1990s. SO wonderful to hear the Arditti play this. Love both versions now. One of Nyman's indisputable masterpieces (either version). Thank you so much for sharing. This is going to make mine a very happy end to 2020.
@@finosuilleabhain7781 No, I do not mean that the interpretation is different. I mean that the score is different in many ways. E.g. the first 25 seconds of music is not in the Balanescu recording.

Never heard this version of it before. It's wonderful!
El Michael Nyman de los inicios, con el gran Alexander Balanescu al violín, gracias por compartir!
Hauntingly beautiful, I'm totally blown away.

Do you mean the interpretation is different, or was there an actual revision?
