Viola By Choice: Buy and Donate

FLORILEGIUM is Viola By Choice's first CD. It is an emotionally and stylistically eclectic collection of exciting live performances recorded during Viola By Choice's first two seasons. The works on the album epitomize what chamber music is all about: they are  lush, exotic, soulful, poignant, lyrical, passionate, virtuosic, funky, and decadent.

FLORILEGIUM features compositions by Paganini, Brahms, Ravel, Debussy, Turina and others, including world premiere recordings of works by Libby Larsen, Lowell Liebermann, Peter Stopschinski and Michael Haydn.

With your gift, Viola By Choice will be able to:

- bring high caliber musicians, composers and other artists together for fruitful collaborations and memorable performances

- implement residency programs and collaborative ventures in schools to  encourage children and teenagers to find solace, and gratification in their music studies, nurture their creativity and allow their voices to be expressed through music

- assist young, deserving, and talented violists through a VIOLA BY CHOICE  scholarship rewarded to the winners of the VIOLA BY CHOICE competition, in the hopes that it will embolden them to pursue their practice of the viola at the College level, if not at the professional level

- reach out to the community through concerts in concert halls, schools, hospitals, museums, prisons, and other venues

- alleviate its production and administrative costs, which include purchasing/renting/licensing of sheet music, recording fees, rental of performance space, printing of programs and advertising materials, website maintenance, etc.

Thank you very much.
