Letters To A Young Poet, composer Mark Zanter’s debut Navona release, presents recently commissioned chamber works for strings. + The inspiration for the title track comes from the content of Rainer Maria Rilke’s letters of encouragement to poet Franz X. Kappus. + Themes are continued and developed in both Lament and dream (2013) for string orchestra, piano, and percussion, and Three Movements for Cello Quintet (2007). + The single-movement String Quartet (2011) is described by cellist Şölen Dikener as “...a monumental work…that carries the listener into Zanter’s adventurous world.”
