„Mit dem Royal Stringquartet Warsaw waren spürsinnige Interpreten zu erleben, die jeder Note, jedem geräuschhaften Element ihre konzentrierte Aufmerksamkeit widmeten –Tüftler am Werk, die Schwieriges heraus zu modellieren vermochten.Das Dritte Streichquartettvon Andreas Staffel lebt vor allem vom klanglichen Spektrum der Instrumente. Es erzählt intensiv in atmosphärischer Dichte von der Auseinandersetzung des Komponisten mit der abstrakten Malerei Gerhard Richters.“

Abput Mitte-Schnitte for sextet
The composition was written between 2017 and 2020.The title is ambiguous and refers to twelve episodes that immediately merge into each other, separated only by short cuts. The individual fragments of the movement resemble short film clips that transform in, sometimes abrupt, contrasts. Here, the different groupings of the ensemble alternate with soloistic sections. The composition concludes in a calm mood, with the musicians speaking and singing into their instruments the poem "Ehemals und jetzt" by the German poet Friedrich Hölderlin (1770-1843).

From: 8 Songs after Love Poems by Bertolt Brecht (2012)
Sieben Rosen hat der Strauch / Sechs gehörn dem Wind / Aber eine bleibt, dass auch / Ich noch eine find.
Sieben Male ruf ich dich / Sechsmal bleibe fort / Doch beim siebten Mal, versprich / Komme auf mein Wort

The piece was created in spring 2014 and is dedicated to a Persian artist. Besides the allusion to the parlor game Monopoly hidden in the title, the core of the composition refers to the constant change between monophony and polyphony.
