Sonata for Two Solo Violas

Duration: 12'
Movements: Allegro con spirito / Andante / Presto
Instrumentation: 2 vla
Composed in: 1976

Initially composed for two violins as Sonatina for Two Solo Violins in 1955. This viola version is no different than the original but performed by the perfect fifth lower. The idea of performing the original sonatina on two violas was suggested by Artur Paciorkiewicz, composer’s son and it was recorded in Polish Radio in duo with Stefan Kamasa.
