Crawford, Robert (b.1925)
Elder statesman of the Scottish music scene, Robert Crawford [b.1925] has throughout his life lavished intense care upon each one of his comparatively few compositions. He agonises over every note in his output of outstanding chamber music. He studied with Benjamin Frankel and also Hans Gál, which perhaps explains his expert contrapuntal technique.
The Edinburgh Quartet and pianist Nicholas Ashton are intimately acquainted with Crawford's music and mirror the composer's attention to detail in a long overdue all-première survey of this lovingly-crafted music.The EQ was one of the first university-based quartets in the UK. Although still busily involved in the musical life of Edinburgh University, the Edinburgh Quartet is now resident at Napier University, Edinburgh, and fulfils a busy series of commitments with the university's Ian Tomlin School of Music.Their recent recording of the complete Hans Gál string quartets was named one of the Best Recordings of the Year in Gramophone's Awards’ Issue.
