Yearning from String Quartet No 16
The San Francisco based Del Sol String Quartet has included Yearning, the third movement from Sculthorpe’s STRING QUARTET NO 16 on its newly released disc entitled Ring of Fire, on Other Minds CDs. In his illuminating liner essay Charles Amirkhanian introduces the Del Sol String Quartet:

In Gramophone magazine’s US Edition (December 2008), Donald Rosenberg praised this “fascinating amalgam of recent works” played by the Del Sol “with a combination of ferocious attack, riveting interplay and silken splendour [ ...] All of the composers hail from — or have worked extensively in ­countries around the Pacific Rim. Although they represent different cultures and musical vantage-points, their identification with specific regional elements binds them here as an artistic community.”

In addition to works by Kui Dong (China), Chinary Ung (Cambodia), Jack Body (New Zealand), Gabriela Lena Frank (USA), Hyo-shin Na (South Korea), Zhou Long (China), John Adams (USA), Rosenberg admired “the despairing beauty of Peter Sculthorpe's Yearning (the third movement of his String Quartet No 16), with roots in a central Afghanistan love song.”
