This, my Fifth String Quartet, continues my exploration into writing music of a more contrapuntal nature.

This work is about 24 minutes in length and I very much appreciate you taking the time to listen, and hopefully enjoy it. It has been very difficult to compose, and at this point I can’t take it any further, as additional changes only seem to weaken both the piece and myself:)

Its best listened to with headphones, though I did attempt to make it work decently computer speakers. 

Thank you again!
Bob

In the beginning of march just before the pandemic was a fact in Sweden I wrote and recorded this song.

 I have always had the feeling that this one was not finished yet so now I have had some help from the drum magician himself Monkey Blood Lowdown to do the drums. Here's the new mix, remastered and with MBL drums.

Bitter Hope - MBL drums

When in Tasmania, Natt hanged out with his girlfriend Fanny Assingham and a surfer dude called Ginger. We don't know if it was because of his red hair or the fact that he over consumed ginger root beer.
The legend says that Fanny took off with Ginger and a case of root beer but no one knows for sure. The only thing that we do know is that Ginger ended up very sadly in the jaws of a shark when surfing the swells of the Tasmanian shores.
Natt had little to do with it says the Police report.

two chaos children collide 
again as fate provides  

to protect this fish
to raise the flood

slipping into new lakes 
happiest mud 

tuning without knowledge
the rhythmic sapiophone

together known 
in sonic bombast shown

protect this fish
