Moonset and After Moonset: two new tunes for viola

time1 mo agoview4 views

Here are two of my own compositions, "Moonset" and "After Moonset". Both appear in my latest tune book, Round the Back of Dandelion Street. The sheet music is available from: https://www.petrichordia.com/round-the-back-of-dandelion-street.php

The first tune has also been arranged as a viola duet, and appears in my collection of viola duets, Tendrils (available at: https://www.petrichordia.com/tendrils-viola-duets.php )

I can confirm that when composing the first one, I was simultaneously watching the moon set out of my window.

I don't remember now whether the second one was written at a time of day occurring after the moon had set (it was written several years later), but it was intentionally written to follow the first one, so I think that counts, on a different axis.
