Almost there: the 2013 Klein International String Competition

We’re almost there: 3 weeks until the Klein Competition!  The participants have my  three new commissioned solo string pieces.  Three very different, but technically comparable works: Uncle Hokum’s Fiddle (violin), When The World Disintegrates Before Your Eyes (viola), and Triptych: Dark Waters, Parting, and Arriving Home (cello).   Each contestant is required to perform the pieces for the semi-final round.  The finalists have a choice to include my work on their finals program the next day.  The semi-finals are Saturday, June 8th and the finals Sunday, June 9th at San Francisco State.  For more details see: Klein Competition Timeline
