During Olivier Messiaen's imprisonment in the Second World War, he conceived the "Quatuor pour la fin du temps" ("Quartet for the end of time"). The premiere took place in January 1941 in the main camp near Görlitz in front of around 300 fellow prisoners and the guards. Inspired by the Revelation of John and the idea of the Apocalypse, Messiaen wrote this musical bow to the divine mystery in a disembodied, spiritual and incredibly expressive tonal language.
