Description
Inspired by J.S. Bach’s Sonatas & Partitas for Solo Violin and the 6 Suites for Unaccompanied Cello as well as Max Reger’s 3 Suites for Solo Viola and several of Paganini’s 24 Caprices, this virtuosic, multi-faceted, five-movement work by young Australian composer Jamie Miles focuses on a range of technical elements including double stops and chords, varied and difficult hand positions, fast string crossings, position shifts, rapid scale and arpeggio passages, and more. The five movements are: 1) Prelude, 2) Bourée, 3) Sarabande, 4) Courante – Theme and Variations, and 5) Gigue. Jamie commenced writing this work in 2017, at the age of 12 and completed it in mid-2019 at age 14. The premiere of the work was broadcast live on FM radio in December of 2019, performed by the composer.
The length is approximately 14 minutes.
