Borrowing its title from the writings of John Stuart Mill, \u003ci\u003eExperiments in Living\u003c\/i\u003e leads the performers through a series of idiosyncratic episodes featuring extremes of gesture and extended technique over the course of a single, 16-minute movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCommissioned by the Fromm Foundation, \u003ci\u003eString Quartet 1.5: Experiments in Living\u003c\/i\u003e was composed for Spektral Quartet, who gave the premiere performance in October 2016 at Chicago's Harris Theater.
