It is an augmented chord that they play. I suppose that the moment in the soundtrack you are referring to also uses that harmony. Very effective for creating a somewhat jarring sound in music.
@@TheodoreServin I thought it was the same chord when I wrote this, but I went back to listen to the Star Wars main titles and it turns out it's not exactly. In Star Wars there's a moment that's similar to 0:37, with descending string patterns, but the chord here is Ebaug whereas in Star Wars it's an Abmaj7#5, which contains an Eaug, i.e. a half-step up from Ebaug. By the way, a similar moment happens in 0:46 with a Daug.

Gliere is a master of scoring, sonorities are spaced beautifully, lots of color and shading in the string sound. Attractive melodic writing, too.
Спасибо за публикацию, очень качественно.
А Рейнгольд Глиэр очень талантливый композитор!

Glière was a champion when it came to composing chamber music! Apparently this particular string sextet was his most successful.
Dynamic movements make pretty enjoyable this composition......
I've been listening to the Octet. A pretty amazing piece.
Thank you very much kind man!

Would someone please tell me which instruments are used for this sextet? It's a glorious piece!
2 violins, 2 violas and 2 cellos
