Jokinen Erkki: String quartet N:o 2, parts.

The String Quartet nr 2 (1976) was well received by public and critics alike when it was included in the programme of the 1978 ISCM Festival in Helsinki.J okinen's harmonic thinking can be seen in his predilection for dense, almost clusterlike, chords and for polyfonic textures derived from a small fund of notes in which the individual voices, devoid of melodioc signifigance, blend into rippling soundfields.
