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. I know that it has something to do with love.\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":45068586713167,"sku":"ED14235","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Score \u0026 Set of Parts - Digital Download","offer_id":45106697994319,"sku":"Q795139","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/520f0493ac1af3e9967169b714cc22f1.jpg?v=1775512903","url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/products\/finnis-string-quartet-no-2-schott","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
