program
Composed for the Danish violinist Vera Panitch, who premiered it in Copenhagen, 2014, this concerto starts with a simple melodic line in the solo violin that sets off gently following waves in the surrounding strings. Consisting of two lively outer movements that frame a tranquil inner section, the music takes a single musical fragment and carries it through many dramatic contrasts to find its swift and determined ending.
