Orchestration for the String Quartet: research-creation with the ACTOR Project 

Robert Hasegawa, coordinator 

Quatuor Bozzini
Clemens Merkel, Alissa Cheung, violin; Stéphanie Bozzini, viola; Isabelle Bozzini, cello 

New works by MARILOU BURON, CHELSEA KOMSCHLIES, MIKO SABATINO, SHOWAN TAVAKOL with researchers Robert Hasegawa, Jimmie LeBlanc, Emmanuelle Majeau-Bettez, Jade Roth 

Childhood daydreams, shimmering textures, meteorological phenomena, and traditional Persian music were inspirations for four new string quartets written for Quatuor Bozzini. These were workshopped over a multi-phase research collaboration with four composers— Chelsea Komschlies and Marilou Buron from º«¹úÂãÎè, plus Miko Sabatino and Showan Tavokol from Université de Montréal—and four researchers (Robert Hasegawa, Jimmie LeBlanc, Jade Roth, and Emanuelle Majeau-Bettez) who tested and developed strategies for timbre-based approaches to string quartet composition. Four unique and colourful approaches to string quartet writing. A co-production of (Analysis, Creation and Teaching of Orchestration) and Quatuor Bozzini.
