The work opens with a swirl of restless, intersecting ideas before transitioning into a haunting middle section characterized by shimmering tremolos and an ethereal melody played in the cello's high natural harmonics. A ferocious fugue drives the final movement to a dramatic breaking point, eventually collapsing into a brief, intricate coda where fragments from throughout the piece fold back in on themselves for a tightly unified conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Qualified Noise","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45166332411983,"sku":"QN1042","price":87.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/438ff2131bfe009fb9c3792ea60683d3.webp?v=1777916288","url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/fr\/products\/ippolito-string-quartet-no-4-qualified-noise","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
