The purpose of this anthology is to make available to the viola player a substantial body of work which can best emphasise the peculiarly expressive nature of the viola as a solo instrument, and the rich, dark eloquence of the modern style of viola playing. A new conception of this instrument’s place in the world of musical art in general, and of string performance in particular, is making its way among musicians and audiences alike. This edition is aimed to be helpful to students, by introducing them to more valuable and enticing literature, amateurs, by bringing them to solo pieces they may have not known, and to professionals, by giving them some unpublished shorter works, either suitable for encores or as part of a performance. Professionally recorded piano accompaniments are accessed online using the unique code inside the book and can be streamed or downloaded. The audio files include PLAYBACK+, a multi-functional audio player that allows you to slow down audio without changing pitch, set loop points, change keys, and pan left or right.
