VIOLET

Inspired by the luscious Prelude, Allegro, and Pastorale (1941) by Rebecca Clarke, and the near lack of repertoire for clarinet and viola alone, Violet committed itself to expanding the literature for this sorely under-represented genre of classical chamber music. Since its inception in 2015, Violet’s efforts have cascaded to produce upwards of 100 new compositions for the ensemble. By producing recordings and making these contemporary works accessible to others, Violet is quickly becoming the go-to source for duos of this unique instrumental combination.
