Commissioned by the Philadelphia Chamber Music Society for its Thirtieth Anniversary for the Clarosa Quartet. The first movement begins with detached fragments and soon turns into something cohesive and dramatic. The second movement pastorale is a beautiful interlude with glistening piano effects. The fourth movement closes the quartet with a long whirlwind at the end. Overall, Krzywicki left me with the same feeling I get from Beethoven's late quartets -- the sense that you're in direct contact with the composer's state of mind. Krzywicki's feelings aren't as conflicted as Beethoven's but they're just as real. -- Tom Purdom (BroadStreetReview.com).
