Visions of the Anointed

Description

• Composer: Daniel McCarthy
• Publisher: C. Alan Publications

The first movement, "New Vision," is a dense conversation among the quartet. In a complete musical turn-around from the first movement, the next movement, "Isadora: Dance!" comes bounding on the listener with lively strumming (complete with guitar-style picking) and open string strumming, giving the feelings of body movement, gyrations, jumping, and leaping. On a more personal level, I wrote the next movement after Edgar Allan Poe, with whom I closely identify. The fourth movement is a virtuosic blast.
