Discovering the Viola

The list author says:
	"Contains clarinet too, but the result is lovely.  Melodic and tuneful and ending with my favourite soulful viola piece of all time - Bruch's romance, full orchestral version"

The list author says:
	"Chamber album with viola and piano.  A collection of lovely music including the piano version of Bruch's romance"

The list author says:
	"Sets the viola in context and allows the listener to really hear how different it is from both violin and cello.  I'm not too keen on the first and last pieces, but the rest are pleasant and tuneful."

The list author says:
	"Some even say that Bach wrote the cello suites for viola and, given that he, like may other composers, was a violist himself, this is plausible.  Enjoyable solos."

The list author says:
	"Only one viola piece on here, but one of the most famous - the Telemann concerto in G."

The list author says:
	"Orchestral music fetauring viola.  This contains my favourite 'jolly' viola piece - Hummel's Fantasie."

The list author says:
	"The Brahms sonatas were originally written for clarinet, but the composer himself authorised the transcription.  The result of lovely.  I prefer the Märchenbilder on 'Romanze' as these seem a bit fast"

The list author says:
	"Beethoven (who was also a violist himself!) wrote this lovely nocturne for viola.  The Arpeggione sonata is great too."

The list author says:
	"Both his viola concertos here and a series of solo studies which anyone who loves the cello suites will enjoy"

The list author says:
	"The nearest to 'dramatic' chamber music I go.  Some are a bit more chaotic, some are very gentle."

The list author says:
	"Contains the famous 'Hebrew Melodies' and Kiel's 3 Romances."
