Additional info/contents	This short and ingratiating work for string quartet is challenging enough to be satisfying for professionals to play but approachable enough to be suitable for serious amateur players as well. Commissioned by the Reston Prelude Festival for the Audubon String Quartet, Demeter Prelude has a quicksilver quality that aptly embodies the fanciful retelling of the ancient story of the goddess Demeter's search for her daughter Persephone. A rich vein of characteristically intense lyricism is contrasted with the livelier sections of quartet writing. This is a delightful work by one of the most accomplished composers of the present day.
