John Hawkins
Six violas
Three linked pieces all based on the number 3: triads, tritones, triplets and so on. The first piece was written in 2007 for the Spanish Academia Internacional di Musica di Solsona at the suggestion of the violist Paul Silverthorne. The composer 'so liked the sound of six violas' that he added two more pieces.
