John Woolrich A Single Sound of Strings
Newly Commissioned by Ian Gordon (World Premiere)
I was delighted when John accepted my commission for a piece for string quartet for the 2026 Sacconi Festival to celebrate my 80th birthday, to be performed in the place where, as a chorister I learned so much about music and performance and, with the Sacconi Festival, so much more about the wide world of music.
