Quartetto per archi No. 3 op. 40

'Bozay's new quartet is an imposingly splendid work. Its slow second movement reaches almost Bartókian depths. The final rondeau is of elemental force. Each movement is characterized by lucid structure. The aleatoric sections fit perfectly the ones fixed precisely by notation. The tone is controlled and lucid to an utmost degree throughout. The thematic materials are characteristic, their combination is logical, but not commonplace it is a work written with amazing skill of the craft.' (Porrectus, Muzsika, March 1999). The fourmovement work composed in 1996-1997 was first performed with great success by the String Quartet Somogyi at the 1999 Mini-Festival in Budapest.
