gnarwhallaby Los Angeles gnarwhallaby was formed in 2011 to revive and perform the repertoire composed for the unique instrumentation of clarinet, trombone, violoncello, and piano. as their starting point, the quartet used the missions and repertoires of the now defunct, avant-garde polish ensemble warsztat muzyczny (1967-88) as well as the later german outfit quartett avance (ca. 1990s). as the third generation "grandchild" quartet – the first in the united states and the only currently active quartet of its kind in the world – gnarwhallaby continues to expand this largely unknown and fascinating body of repertoire with active composer commissions and original compositions by its members. gnarwhallaby’s popular tracks michelle lou :: heart/lung [2016] by gnarwhallaby published on 2017-09-22T06:50:21Z klaus lang :: rote asche [2009/2012] by gnarwhallaby published on 2014-11-16T00:05:11Z adriana hölzsky :: avance | impulsions mécaniques [1997] by gnarwhallaby published on 2015-06-17T21:48:25Z włodzimierz kotoński :: pour quatre [1968] by gnarwhallaby published on 2014-11-17T22:53:37Z colin wambsgans :: 2.(for a wedge resection) from quartet [2014] by gnarwhallaby published on 2015-09-30T16:48:46Z andrew greenwald :: a thing made whole (iii) [2017] (excerpt) by gnarwhallaby published on 2017-07-27T17:52:04Z Richard Barrett- Tkiva by gnarwhallaby published on 2019-01-21T06:11:53Z
