Program note: “Echo Dash”, is a mad race through a land of echoing shadows….a tight run through a close maze of notes, with the lead shifting quickly between the violin and the piano, racing forward and always on the verge of crashing.

This work was designed so that it can be played in a myriad of combinations…solo violin, solo piano, violin with each hand of the piano, as well as tutti… dashing along in chaotic fun.

Dedicated to Hilary…in honor of her vision, courage, skill, and musicianship.
