Opis

These three terrific short pieces are substantial enough for concert and recital use and make superb encores. Composed by one of today's finest viola players, the Three Pieces have an unabashed romantic tunefulness and old-fashioned flash that will make them favourites of performers and students. Although not for the beginner, this collection will be accessible to many viola players.

Recenzje

Paul Coletti's Three Pieces for viola and piano contrast strikingly different moods within a jazz-influenced style, the first two giving the viola the silky soft expressive line of a saxophone solo, the third, Circus, being that rare phenomenon, a truly idiomatic viola show-piece, in which the viola plays the role of clown, combining humour, excitement and chaos. Ideal either as a finisher or an encore to a recital, Circus may also be useful to A-level students seeking unconventional repertoire for performance assessment.
