Program Note

Three Bagatelles for Viola and Piano begins with a terse Toccata that contains the seeds for much of happens in the latter pieces. Arioso exploits the singing nature of the viola, while the finale, Ballata, turns the thematic materials of the earlier movements into an extended bravura dance.
