“The piece was commissioned by Chris Alexander. It is dedicated to Waldo Alexander, in admiration of his playing.” In order to gain greater rhythmic flexibility, Volans decided to write the piano and the violin at different tempi – the violin at 90bpm and the piano at 100. This means that the players do not need to stand close together, as they are not synchronized.
