William Baines' three-movement String Quartet in E was written in York during a two-month period from December 1917 to January 1918. It is the composer's first significant work in the genre and displays some elements of his maturing style. The later quartet works, the Rhapsody in F# MInor (1920) and the Two Fragments (1921) show greater evidence of his youthful promise. The central slow movement of the Quartet in E was later reworked and developed into the Andante in D, premiered by the Sheffield Quartet at a concert by the York branch of the British Music Society in 1922, the year of his early death. The mp3 audio is taken directly from the Sibelius file and strictly adheres to Baines's own metronome markings, some of which may want to be slightly tempered!
