A gifted violinist, Nathaniel Stookey has acquired the necessary technical knowledge and ensemble experience to write idiomatically for strings and to bring off his musical ideas through the most effective means. Yet as a composer, Stookey shows a fanciful, inventive side that exceeds mere technique and reveals him to be a highly imaginative and original talent, particularly as a writer of string quartets. The two presented here -- the String Quartet No. 1 (1998) and the String Quartet No. 2, "Musée Mécanique" (2002) -- are decidedly the cleverest pieces on this 2005 CD, displaying not merely Stookey's extensive catalog of string tricks, but also his knack for lively repartee, communicative voicings, and formal clarity. The Ciompi Quartet is exciting and sharply defined in these recordings, and its bracing playing makes these pieces linger in the memory for a long time. As distinctive as Stookey's quartets are, though, some may find the succinctly named Double (1999), his concerto for two violins and string orchestra, to be the most deeply satisfying work for its soaring duets, rich harmonic language, and thoughtful moods. Violinists Brian Reagin and Rebekah Benford produce clean, shimmering lines against the full-bodied sonorities of the North Carolina Symphony, conducted by William Henry Curry, and Albany's recording has depth and natural resonance.
