The Brodsky Quartet joins the 2014 Andrzej Panufnik centenary year of reminiscence and celebration with Messages, recordings of works by both Andrzej and his daughter Roxanna. + In ‘Modlitwa’, originally a vocal work, both father and daughter composed sections, with Roxanna subsequently making this string sextet arrangement. + ‘Song to the Virgin Mary’, dedicated to his wife, also began as an a cappella work. + His three string quartets reveal his innovative and expressive musical language. + The Brodsky Quartet commissioned ‘Memories of My Father’ especially for the centenary.
