Viola Concerto

composer
Gerald Barry (b1952)

 
Gerald Barry’s Viola Concerto was commissioned by Britten Sinfonia and Raidió Teilifís Éireann. Britten Sinfonia was supported by Thea Markus and two anonymous donors to its Musically Gifted crowdfunding campaign. The commission was underwritten by The Viola Commissioning Circle, a new charity formed to broaden the viola repertoire for the public benefit by underwriting the commissioning of new works for the viola while co-commissioners are found.
