String Quartets

Access Core

Access Core is a group of young composers from the regular programs Technical
Composition and Arrangement with an Emphasis on Soundtrack and Technical
Production, coordinated by João Marcondes. The students engage in creative music
production with an open-ended approach, allowing each new author to bring their own
influences into the musical works under the artistic guidance and overall direction of
composer and educator João Marcondes. The productions take place at ARSIS Studio, led
by renowned sound engineer Adonias Júnior, who has been widely acclaimed for his
initiative and the development of his work.

In the album String Quartets, the group Access Core authentically expresses its musicality through the rich sound of a string quartet. Exploring a wide range of rhythms and melodic lines, their interpretation stands out for its refined use of techniques such as staccato, combined with meticulously crafted instrumentation.

The result is a sensory immersion that guides the listener through a vast and multifaceted sonic landscape, evoking emotions and creating a captivating and unforgettable musical experience.
