Music by Britten, Ton-That Tiet, Bergsma, Davies,Zimmermann andGhent "A dichotomy between old and new in music has never made much sense to me. My ability to understand many kinds of music has been honed by my interest in many kinds of music. Participation in the history of the viola means, quite simply, keeping the instrument alive in one's own era." -John Graham
