More music from this acclaimed Greek composer!

Nikos Skalkottas, who died in 1949, is only just beginning to be accorded the attention that his highly original music deserves, thanks in no small measure to the recordings of his music that BIS has issued over the last couple of years. String quartets occupy a special position in his œuvre, and the New Hellenic Quartet brings great skill and commitment to two such works written after the composer had returned from Germany to his native Greece: No.3, written in 1935, and No.4, written in 1940.
