KEVIN VOLANS Reviews. A selection of quotes from reviews of the work of kevin volans kevinvolans sixth quartet is an altogether different animal. http://kevinvolans.com/kv_revi.shtml
Extractions: "It is a piece for double quartet, or for one quartet with a prerecorded tape. Volans describes it as an attempt at “emptiness”, the musical equivalent of a blank canvas – a work without gesture or historical reference. What he has achieved is very striking, a piece of slowly meshing, slowly changing chords, absolutely lacking in rhetoric, and that draws the listener into its 26 minutes with total assurance."

Extractions: Up VOLANS, Kevin b Pietermaritzburg 26 July 1949 Kevin Volans was born in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa in 1949. After completing a B Mus at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg in 1972, he furthered his studies at the University of Aberdeen. From 1973 until 1981 he lived in Cologne, studying with Karlheinz Stockhausen, later becoming his teaching assistant (1975-76). During this time he also studied music theatre (with Maurizio Kagel), piano (with Aloys Kontarsky) and electronic music (with Johannes Fritsch). In the mid-70s, his work became associated with the Neue Einfachheit movement (New Simplicity). From 1976 to 1979 Volans made 4 field recording trips to Africa, after which he composed a series of pieces based on African compositional techniques, which quickly established him as a distinctive voice on the European music circuit. In 1981 he returned to South Africa where he taught composition at the University of Natal. He was awarded the DMus in composition from the same institution in 1985. In the same year he returned to Europe, where he lived as a freelance teacher and composer in Paris and Cork. In 1986 he accepted a post as composer-in-residence at the Queens University (Belfast) where he remained until 1989. He was also composer-in-residene at Princeton University in 1992. In 1995 Volans became an Irish citizen, resides today in Dublin. In 1986 Kevin Volans began a productive collaboration with the Kronos Quartet.

Extractions: BUY NOW Crotchet AmazonUK AmazonUS The South African born composer Kevin Volans came to string quartet writing relatively late, completing his Quartet No. 1 in 1982. The title, 'White Man Sleeps', reveals his African origins, as does the title 'Hunting Gathering' of the Quartet No 2, composed five years later. By 2000 he had moved on to his Sixth Quartet. These three pieces comprise the repertoire collected here, and an entertaining and satisfying disc it makes. First of all, the Black Box recordings are excellent, made at the Winterbrook Studios in London. Perspectives are accurate, ensembles are crisp, sonorities are rich. The Duke Quartet play with discipline and commitment. But what of the music, which to most listeners will be an unknown quantity.
