The brief pieces variously include performance directions like ‘intimate', ‘spacious', ‘with childlike simplicity', ‘as if improvising'. Each one seems to me now like a specific memory of an image, a sensation of place, a significant encounter, or a moment of vivid perception. I wanted above all to convey each musical image as clearly and directly as possible, and to write for the piano in a focused, uncluttered, personal way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYouth is dedicated to my nieces and nephews.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e© Edmund Finnis\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContents:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Bloom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eII Spin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIII Frankenthaler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIV Stream of Days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eV Serried Ridges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVI Coenties Slip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVII Hammershøi Windows\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVIII Buren\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIX Heath\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eX Helsinki Patterns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Schott","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43204216586319,"sku":"ED14233","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/82c4c07d00c6b24612372c1aa2860da2.jpg?v=1750124075"},{"product_id":"finnis-five-trios-schott","title":"Finnis: Five Trios","description":"\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComposer\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/edmund-finnis\"\u003eEdmund Finnis (1984-)\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong class=\"original-instrumentation-title\"\u003eInstrumentation\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"original-instrumentation\"\u003ePiano Trio (Piano, Violin, Cello)\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWork\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 Trios (2019)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"binding hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBinding\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISMN\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-barcode\"\u003e9790220140082\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-width\"\u003e8.9\u003c\/span\u003e x \u003cspan class=\"book-length\"\u003e12.0\u003c\/span\u003e inches\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"book-pages hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages\u003c\/strong\u003e: None\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"one-half columns\"\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.schott-music.com\/en\/preview\/viewer\/index\/?idx=Nzg4ODg4\u0026amp;idy=788888\u0026amp;dl=0\" class=\"global-button global-button--text\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e \u003csvg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" fill=\"currentColor\" class=\"bi bi-book\" viewbox=\"0 0 16 16\" style=\"margin-right: 5px;\"\u003e\u003cpath d=\"M1 2.828c.885-.37 2.154-.769 3.388-.893 1.33-.134 2.458.063 3.112.752v9.746c-.935-.53-2.12-.603-3.213-.493-1.18.12-2.37.461-3.287.811V2.828zm7.5-.141c.654-.689 1.782-.886 3.112-.752 1.234.124 2.503.523 3.388.893v9.923c-.918-.35-2.107-.692-3.287-.81-1.094-.111-2.278-.039-3.213.492V2.687zM8 1.783C7.015.936 5.587.81 4.287.94c-1.514.153-3.042.672-3.994 1.105A.5.5 0 0 0 0 2.5v11a.5.5 0 0 0 .707.455c.882-.4 2.303-.881 3.68-1.02 1.409-.142 2.59.087 3.223.877a.5.5 0 0 0 .78 0c.633-.79 1.814-1.019 3.222-.877 1.378.139 2.8.62 3.681 1.02A.5.5 0 0 0 16 13.5v-11a.5.5 0 0 0-.293-.455c-.952-.433-2.48-.952-3.994-1.105C10.413.809 8.985.936 8 1.783z\"\u003e\u003c\/path\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e Look Inside!

We hear a network of voices flowing, pulsating, revolving, crying out. The music moves between tranquil, meditative states and those of a more animated, agitated nature. Yearning lines and figures recur, overlapping and intensifying with each iteration. Around them harmonies swell, envelop and recede. Elements of the music resemble\nwordless song, chorale, and the spirit of plainchant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI am motivated by the idea that imagining, sounding out and perceiving this music can be an act of devotion, an expression of solace intertwined with sorrow, a way of reaching outwards, upwards, towards the inexpressible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e© Edmund Finnis\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Schott","offers":[{"title":"Score \u0026 Set of Parts","offer_id":45068559286351,"sku":"ED14236","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Score \u0026 Set of Parts - Digital Download","offer_id":45106697928783,"sku":"Q795081","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/cdeed163ad57f1da02bad24f85adb67b.jpg?v=1775510321"},{"product_id":"finnis-string-quartet-no-2-schott","title":"Finnis: String Quartet No. 2","description":"\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComposer\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/edmund-finnis\"\u003eEdmund Finnis (1984-)\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong class=\"original-instrumentation-title\"\u003eInstrumentation\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"original-instrumentation\"\u003eString Quartet (Violin I, Violin II, Viola, Cello)\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWork\u003c\/strong\u003e: String Quartet No. 2 (2021)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"binding hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBinding\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISMN\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-barcode\"\u003e9790220139871\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-width\"\u003e9.0\u003c\/span\u003e x \u003cspan class=\"book-length\"\u003e12.0\u003c\/span\u003e inches\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"book-pages\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages\u003c\/strong\u003e: 72\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"one-half columns\"\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.schott-music.com\/en\/preview\/viewer\/index\/?idx=Nzk1MTM5\u0026amp;idy=795139\u0026amp;dl=0\" class=\"global-button global-button--text\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e \u003csvg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" fill=\"currentColor\" class=\"bi bi-book\" viewbox=\"0 0 16 16\" style=\"margin-right: 5px;\"\u003e\u003cpath d=\"M1 2.828c.885-.37 2.154-.769 3.388-.893 1.33-.134 2.458.063 3.112.752v9.746c-.935-.53-2.12-.603-3.213-.493-1.18.12-2.37.461-3.287.811V2.828zm7.5-.141c.654-.689 1.782-.886 3.112-.752 1.234.124 2.503.523 3.388.893v9.923c-.918-.35-2.107-.692-3.287-.81-1.094-.111-2.278-.039-3.213.492V2.687zM8 1.783C7.015.936 5.587.81 4.287.94c-1.514.153-3.042.672-3.994 1.105A.5.5 0 0 0 0 2.5v11a.5.5 0 0 0 .707.455c.882-.4 2.303-.881 3.68-1.02 1.409-.142 2.59.087 3.223.877a.5.5 0 0 0 .78 0c.633-.79 1.814-1.019 3.222-.877 1.378.139 2.8.62 3.681 1.02A.5.5 0 0 0 16 13.5v-11a.5.5 0 0 0-.293-.455c-.952-.433-2.48-.952-3.994-1.105C10.413.809 8.985.936 8 1.783z\"\u003e\u003c\/path\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e Look Inside! \u003c\/a\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"one-half columns\"\u003e \u003ch4\u003eDescription\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"feature_divider\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eString Quartet No. 2\u003c\/em\u003e begins and ends with musical ideas that were in the back of my mind in some form or other since my teens. in the process of moving house during 2020 I rediscovered some old minidiscs containing rough demo recordings I'd made nearly two decades before. At that point I didn't yet know how to realise these ideas, but listening back much later I found the seeds of what has now developed into the two outer movements of the piece. Between them come the flowing interwoven patterns of the second movement and the slow third movement, which is a lament.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI think of this quartet as one of the most concentrated, personal and intimate pieces I have written. It is an outcome of my enduring need to communicate something that I'm incapable of fully expressing with words. I would if I could.
