Consort for True Violins
For piccolo violin, soprano violin, mezzo violin, contra-alto violin, tenor violin, baritone violin, bass violin & contra-bass violin. First Edition, custom print. This unique work was written specifically for violinmaker Carleen Maley Hutchins' Violin Octet, a modern consort of eight finely-matched violins ranging in size from an 11" violin to a seven foot contrabass, extending tonally across the range of written music and consisting of a treble, soprano, mezzo, alto, tenor, baritone, bass, and contrabass violin. Henry Brant was an early proponent of her groundbreaking creations and wrote this piece in 1965, causing a sensation when it was premiered in New York. Full score. Set of parts available separately.
