Colin Matthews

Composer

He has … brought musical architectronics to a personal pitch of mastery.

— Paul Driver, The Sunday Times

Omaggio (1990-3). Violin & piano

Cover of the score for capriccioletto & omaggio

Omaggio is one of a sequence of four short pieces for violin and piano which are all birthday presents for friends and colleagues. It was written for Bayan Northcott’s 50th birthday (the dates of the composition show that it arrived rather late).

See also Capriccioletto, Chaconne with Chorale and Moto Perpetuo.
