Description
Composed in 2014, the Concerto for Viola and Orchestra has two movements and was inspired by a viola solo from Halffter’s opera Schachnovelle (Chess Game), in which the instrument symbolises the loneliness of the imprisoned Dr Berger. Halffter calls the viola a “noble instrument” and maintains that its sound has long fascinated him. Accordingly, Halffter’s concerto sees the viola cover the full range of its expressive power: from virtuoso to very intimate.
