Timothy Baxter String Quintet (1959, rev. 2012) for two violins, viola & two cellos Dur. 20’
NOTE My string quintet was the first piece I wrote whilst studying with Priaulx Rainier at The Royal Academy of Music, London. Since the first movement won a prize, it was decided that composition should be my principal study. The work was duly performed at the Academy in June 1958 by a group led by Carmel Kaine. For the first performance in Denmark (September 2012) the work has been revised with a reshaped 2nd movement. TB
