Concertino, for solo viola and string quintet/orchestra

Originally composed on three poems by Georgian-era English poet and soldier William Kerr, this work is a three-part concertino for viola solo and string quintet (or string ensemble). It was originally sketched as a set of art songs for tenor and piano.

Throughout, the music is inspired by the folk music that was contemporaneous to the time of Kerr (the early Twentieth century in the UK).

I. Nocturne, on "The Trees at Night"
II. Eclogue, on "The Apple Tree"
III. Coronach, on "In Memoriam D. O. M."
