Zaimont: Astral for Viola Solo

Code: JP9003
ISMN: 979-0-3019-0551-7

The emotional trajectory of this eight-minute, contemplative movement is roughly equivalent to one very long phrase. It is largely unmetered, and its varying segments call upon high degrees of both technical and expressive prowess from the performer. The viola's registers and color resorces are explored slowly one by one during the phrase's upcurve (ultimately covering a range of three-and-one-half octaves), but blend together in the final stages.
