Extra Information A piece which shows many of Jora's distinct compositional features - the melodic and harmonic journey of the first movement, with the 'song without words' that is the second movement, and the rhythmical energy and melodic invention of the third movement. One of the first (if not the first) Romanian viola sonatas that are deeply rooted in the ethos of the Romanian folk music - all through the musical language of one of the most unique voices of the 20th century.
