The
one-movement, yet
multiple time structured,
sonata uses a gently
modern tonal language and
has been influenced by
the French tradition.
Emile Naoumoff likes to
give his movements
unusual headings that
perfectly describe the
character of the
respective section. The
piece for the combination
of viola and piano, which
is quite rare in concert
life, is a valuable and
fascinating addition to
the repertoire in which
both instruments conduct
a dialogue on an equal
basis.Naoumoff was born
in Sofia in 1962. At the
age of 8, he began his
career as a pianist and
composer; for ten years,
he was a pupil of Nadia
Boulanger until her
death. At the age of 10,
Naoumoff composed and
performed his own piano
concerto under the
direction of Yehudi
Menuhin. Many prizes,
awards and appearances as
a celebrated pianist
followed. Today Naoumoff
lives and works as an
associate professor at
the School of Music of
the Indiana University in
Bloomington. He holds
master classes in the
USA, Europe and Japan and
is director of a music
academy.
