As the quartet's cellist and composer of the work Night Bridge, Raphaël Merlin, points out, the darkness of night has a special power to heighten our musical senses. "Is there any other time when we listen more closely? Our hearing becomes exceptionally acute, we find ourselves as alert as an animal … especially receptive to new impressions ... It offers all kinds of possibilities to a composer."
