Concert for the End of Time
Wave Street Studios Music • 4m 18s
“Quartet for the End of Time” was written in 1941, while Olivier Messiaen was a prisoner of war in a Nazi prison camp. Messiaen, a pianist himself, wrote the piece to play with fellow prisoners, who played clarinet, violin, and cello.

The Trinity Alps Chamber Players was founded by the Trinity Alps Chamber Music Festival, and features pianist Ian Scarfe, clarinetist Sacha Rattle, violinist Edwin Huizinga, and cellist Charles Akert.
