FOR SOLO VIOLIN(IST) (2018)

For solo violin(ist) explores and challenges our listening expectations towards the violin and the violinist. The violin is such a strong sounding, historic and symbolic object, and when writing for violin the sounds you explore will (almost) always be somewhat in relation to this. The roles are very set, as are the expectations, and for this piece, i chose to compose not only for violin but for the connotations related to the violin as well.
