For violin and mezzosoprano
Solo piece for “one man duo”
(Commissioned by Virpi Räisänen-Midth, premiered Aug 13 2006 in Kiiminki)

This is a piece dedicated to its commissioner, Virpi Räisänen-Midth. She contacted me about having a piece composed for her special “one man duo” performance as violinist-vocalist. After our meeting I wrote a poem which would be the text for this piece.
