NÃ©gysey's Gallery (2001) for two violins is based on computer paintings created by the violin virtuoso JÃ¡nos NÃ©gysey. During a return visit to my Alma Mater, the University of California, San Diego I heard the sounds of a far-off violin and followed them, finding myself in front of the door of JÃ¡nos NÃ©gysey, the violin professor at the university. We hadn't seen each other in over 20 years. While catching up on our lives since my graduation, JÃ¡nos took out several stunning computer paintings he had recently completed. I immediately suggested that I do a new work for two violins based on his art. I asked to see more and soon when I left his office I had a collection of paintings from which to choose. A year later the piece was completed and he programmed it for a recital at the University. They were premiered on April 10, 2001 by JÃ¡nos and PÃ¤ivikki Nykter, also a virtuoso violinist. The images were projected on several screens across the width of the stage. Afterwards, JÃ¡nos and I would meet on Skype to keep up to date and there was always a healthy amount of laughter. When he passed away suddenly in 2013 I was shocked and saddened. I still miss his insights, sense of humor and encyclopedic knowledge. The duration is approximately 33 minutes and there are 12 color paintings included with the score. Many thanks to PÃ¤ivikki for giving me permission to include the paintings.NÃ©gyesy's Gallery was premiered by JÃ¡nos NÃ©gyesy and PÃ¤ivikki Nykter at the University of California, San Diego on April 10, 2001
