for two Violins and Viola-Dvo ák composed his Terzetto op. 74 in 1887 as the result of a spontaneous desire to write some domestic music. Inspired by neighbourhood violin lessons he wrote these four little movements for two violins with violaaccompaniment in the space of just a few days. This Terzetto is thus not technically difficult to play though with its flowing melodies and spirited rhythms it still offers the best of Dvo ák. It is not surprising that hispublisher Fritz Simrock immediately snatched them up when Dvo ák told him in 1887 that he was working on ?little bagatelles?. The autograph of the score that contained many corrections nevertheless makes evident just how much hardwork went into these ?little bagatelles?. It also served as the engraver?s copy for the first edition. Both these sources were consulted for this Urtext edition that offers today?s players an authentic text of this musical jewel.

Alliage (Alloy) II (2008) for Viola and Classical Accordion. Player's score. Programme note: The two instuments of this duo are very different in appearance and in the way of playing as well as toneproduction. At first glance this might call for a music which brings out these differences in the nature ofthe instruments distributing distinct even contrasting musical roles to the two players such as melodyversus accompaniment. But I refrain from this obvious ‘casting’ of the instruments since I have alwaysbeen fascinated by the less evident by transitions and gradual displacement by the intangibleplacesbetween one and the other. I search for this ‘terrain vague’ of fruitfull incertainty and permanent genesis.To arrive here I have in this piece written a music which makes hidden relations and unexplored sonorous paths come forward between the sound worlds of the two instruments. Bringing together the musical substances I look for something deeper than just common sounds: a fresh musical place. And the lively and bright sound world that emerges form this instrumental and textural ’in-between’ I associate toalloys in particular the silvery amalgamations of mercury. The work was commisioned by Andreas Borregaard and composed with support from The Danish Arts Foundation. It is dedicated to the duo Inviolata. Niels Rosing-Schow

Score Parties. Par BEETHOVEN LUDWIG VAN. When Beethoven wrote these three quartets he was 15 years old and a composition student of Christian Gottlob Neefe in Bonn. They reveal a strong Mozartian influence while the brilliant piano writing already gives a sense of the mature Beethoven. He may conceivably have written the works for the wealthy Mastiaux family in Bonn, as he gave piano lessons to one of the daughters and the other three siblings played violin, viola and violoncello. The sole source for the quartets is the autograph score which contains many overwritings that shed light on the works' original conception and possible alternative readings. Although Beethoven never published the pieces in his lifetime and is not known to have performed them, he reused their melodic and thematic material in later compositions. Beethoven preserved the autograph score to the end of his days ? perhaps an indication that the quartets meant a great deal to him. The first edition was published by Artaria in Vienna one year after his death, albeit with the pieces in a different order and with many errors in the musical text. Bärenreiter's scholarly performing edition of the Piano Quartets WoO 36 is edited by the Italian pianist Leonardo Miucci, a specialist in the performance practice of keyboard music from this period. The edition not only presents the correct readings, it also sheds light on the young Beethoven's expressive notation and provides a plausible explanation for the distinction he made between dots and strokes to indicate staccato./ Répertoire / Quatuor pour Piano, Violon, Alto et Violoncelle

Romances - Six short pieces for Viola and Piano by Poul Ruders. Programme note According to tradition a mid- or late-19th century instrumental Romance - or Romanza - is a shortish composition of predominantly melodic nature with a slight leaning toward the sentimental.In several European languages such as German French and Danish the word for navel i.e. an unfolding drama in writing is Roman and although there's nothing literary about my Six Romances for viola and piano each piece tells its own story open to individual inner interpretation. Portal forms the opening chapter so to speak pavingthe way for the second movement named Even Song. Maybe it's just a simple tune heard at sunset perhaps the melody is carried from far away over the hills from inside the village church...Titles such as Ballad and Dirge (song of mourning) immediately reveal the nature and mood of the music to come where-as the concluding piece Duet is slightly more 'mysterious.'In a classic duet the two instruments in question or more likely voices complement each other benevolently. In the present case however the viola and the piano both stand firm protection their own turf - and - 'the twain shall never meet!'The piece is very short indeed it just stops leaving the listener to finish the 'story' in his or her own imagination. A true open ending. (Poul Ruders)
