Stravinsky's Concertino for String Quartet

Performed by the J.A.K.K. Quartet 3/21/10. If you think we are playing wrong notes or something, let me reassure you that we are not. It is just the way the piece is supposed to be played. I encourage you all to listen to some other pieces by Igor Stravinsky, a composer in the early 1900s. Although I am sure most of you will think this piece is completely chaos, I hope you enjoy it, nonetheless. It is extremely difficult to put together as you can imagine, and we only had over a month to learn it. I am the violinist on the far left (1st violin) in case you are wondering. Thanks so much for watching!

@violinsrockdude It's basically a rock rhythm section (electric bass, drum set and electrified mandolin) and string quartet. All my own compositions. Are you all located anywhere near Portland, Oregon, by any chance?
