Reinventing the Invention Op 76 for String Quartet

Reinventing the Invention, Op. 76 is a contemporary re-imagining of J. S. Bach’s Two-Part Inventions. Expanding the contrapuntal dialogue into four independent voices, Neil Crossland adapts these iconic keyboard studies for string quartet, enriching them with modern harmonic language, rhythmic nuance, and expressive depth. The work bridges Baroque precision with present-day invention, transforming pedagogical masterpieces into concert works of renewed vitality.
