Historical context

This program showcases how classical through 20th century composers utilized just one violin and one viola to produce a rich spectrum of musical colors. By pairing well-known composers like Mozart with contemporary works such as Handel-Halvorson's Passacaglia and Brustad's Capricci, we aim to highlight the expressive potential of this intimate chamber ensemble.
