Sing Sing - J. Edgar Hoover : String Quartet and Pre-Recorded Sound

(Boosey & Hawkes Chamber Music). Inspired by J. Edgar Hoover, who directed the F.B.I. from 1924 until his death in 1972. Hoover's grim, threatening, yet darkly comic personality is ever-present in this work. Incorporates pre-recorded sound samples of Hoover's voice, an interesting twist on the director's wiretapping.
