Orchestral(/Chamber) Composition of the Day, Installment 9:
"Poem and Lamentations"
Violin Solo & Piano or String Orchestra
(Version With Piano, 1987; Version With String Orchestra, 2009, 12 minutes)
One of the more substantial and poignant pieces in my catalog, "Poem and Lamentations" begins with an extended violin solo that serves as the basis for the chromatic music that follows. The violin solo stands alone well, and is available separately, and is also available transcribed for viola, or violoncello. "Poem and Lamentations" is also available in an intensely moving orchestration for violin solo with string orchestra accompaniment.
