In the Realms of the Unreal

String Quartet Score and Parts

Olga Neuwirth's string quartet, written in 2009, is a homage to the American artist Henry Darger and his only posthumously discovered, richly illustrated book manuscript of the same name. Neuwirth associates this overabundance of ideas with short, strikingly contrasting sentences in which fragile textures overlap. Neuwirth's third engagement with the genre string quartet was premiered in 2010 by the Arditti Quartet in Paris.
