As a homage to Bach and his era, Mozetich composed four pieces for

musical thoughts from Antonio Vivaldi and Anton Bruckner.

For solo viola Duration: 6 minutes
Odd Man Out belongs to a group of pieces by Michael Berkeley all of
which refer to children's games, and in particular the often cruel form

for the 1994 Lionel Tertis International Viola Competition.
David Fanshawe
THE AWAKENING
(356414-9) $17.95
For viola and piano Duration: 8 minutes
"The Awakening, inspired by Solomon Island pan-pipes develops an
extended song for viola or cello, supported by a gentle, yet rhythmical
piano accompaniment. The cadenza reminds me of Frigate birds soaring
in the heavens against a deep blue Pacific sky." Note from the composer
