Commissione
d by the London
Philharmonic Orchestra,
Luzerner
Sinfonieorchester, Bergen
Philharmonic Orchestra
and Adelaide Symphony
Orchestra, and first
performed in 2013 by
Lawrence Power with the
LPO, conducted by
Vladimir Jurowski. Cast
in three contrasting
movements the work is
expressive, energetic and
highly virtuosic,
culminating in a
breathless Allegro
pitting the soloist
against the orchestra. A
major addition to the
canon of concertante
works by this composer,
and to the viola
repertoire in general.
Suitable for advanced
standard performers.
