While studying historical styles at Peabody, Martin was asked to write a quartet in Baroque style. Here, he reached back to the music before Bach, and composed a six-movement suite in a Baroque wrapper, beginning with a Praeludium, followed by the four necessary pieces, the Allemande, Courante, Sarabande, and Gigue. A grand Chaconne finishes the set in style. For advanced performers. Duration: 11'30.
