Nocturna is actively seeking works for viola and piano. We are open to parts including alternative instrument preparations (electronics, extended techniques, etc.) and new arrangements of existing melodies.

We have been fortunate to engage four composers
to work on
new pieces for us in the 2008-2009 season.

Check here for updates or email miriamenglish@hotmail.com

We had a blast trekking downtown through the ice and snow to play some awesome viola works. Bach-xing day became Bratsche-xing day (Bratsche= German for viola), which was of course an excellent treat for the Someday Lounge crowd.
