Score and parts on special sale from the Hire Library

This short movement for string quartet – a version of my Hyperlude No. 5 for solo violin – was composed for Cuarteto Casals, who also premiered my Concerto Grosso. Commissioned by Cristóbal Soler and the Semana de Música Religiosa de Cuenca, Cantos has a spiritual and introspective character. Structured in a single movement, it is a consecutive series of cadences that in some way (as its title suggests) emulate the inflections of the human voice.
