Song of Backyards : for violin / Marijn Simons
Description:
Originally, Song of Backyards was a violin improvisation I did to a choreography by Joost Vrouenraets in his production with Gotra Ballet. The performance took place on 18th September 2009 at the “Musica Sacra Festival” in Maastricht (The Netherlands). I made an archival recording of this event and a month later I wrote down the music from the recording. With a few small alterations it became this concert piece for violin solo. - Marijn Simons
