Michael McClary
String Quartets
for Stargazing & Sleep
March 27, 2026
Twelve string quartets that trace the arc of an evening — from the last warm light of dusk, through moonlit stillness, to the deep quiet where sleep and stars converge.
Written for the space between waking and dreaming, these compositions unfold with restraint and patience. The warmth of violin, viola, and cello creates an intimate acoustic landscape — music that invites you to pause, breathe, and let the world grow quiet.
