Jarecki was awarded the Coolidge Prize in 1918 for this string quartet. This is probably the first of his three string quartets but I cannot verify that.

(PDF from August 28 1918 reporting this though not reporting much additional detail - some biography.-Schissel See also Review by Daniel Gregory Mason (rather negative!) of the premiere and the festival of which it was part of the closing concert.
