Piano Quartet No. 1 Score by Gerald Barry Oxford University Press | Barcode: 9780193553453

Leaving Cert Music Course A for piano, violin, viola, and cello.

The Piano Quartet No.1 was written in 1992 and is in one movement.

The composer writes: While writing it I was reminded of painting where blocks of colour meet or where objects intersect, of the mysteriousness of those moments. The painter Robert Ryman said that whatever is made should delight and have a rightness about it. That was my aim.
