Pittsburgh Based Music Collective Beo String Quartet Release Their New Album "Ghosts Revisited"

Pittsburgh-based music collective Beo String Quartet compose truly original Chamber Alt music with lyrical themes spanning the dark recesses of the human consciousness. Not only do they dig deep in theme; the sound they've created by uniting classical music and progressive rock/metal is rousing and intense. Another aspect of Chamber Alt music is that the music is composed. Everything is written out first. Beo String Quartet stay true to their bold musical vision on the abstract, compelling new album "Ghosts Revisited", which was just unveiled last week.

Speaking about "Ghosts Revisited", Beo String Quartet says,

“Blending classical lyricism with progressive rock, Ghosts Revisited is inspired by personal transformation—the things that cause someone to basically break out of their old skin. The highly poetic, fragmentary lyrics take us right to the edge of our consciousness. Half-awake, shifting impressions float through our minds where a single moment can explode into years and years can pass by unnoticed.

"We've flipped the roles of string quartet vs rock combo normally found in popular styles," says producer Sean Neukom. "In Ghosts Revisited, it's the strings giving us the substance of the sound. The drums, guitar, bass, and vocals drop in for added definition and texture."

The string quartet runs through the core of “Ghosts Revisited”. The album opens with an expansive and virtuosic introduction for string quartet before launching the full band into the first song. The string quartet also seamlessly transitions the mood between each song played by the full band.
