Al-Ahmad, Lora: Mutual

MUTUAL is a dreamy single-movement work for violin and piano that navigates numerous moods and textures in its seven-minute span with elegance and poise. At times, it is a showpiece for the violin; at others, a rich “song without words,” with both instruments engaged as equal partners. The real magic of the music is in its ability to shift freely between these distant worlds and bring them near to one another. For advanced performers.
