Extraordinary violinist, performance artist, and composer Igudesman has written eleven solo viola works for viola-playing friends. Each individualized piece reflects the dedicatee to an extent, but Igudesman's humor and virtuosity find their way through. These are demanding works, but are excellent program pieces and encore flourishes. Several of the pieces can be heard on YouTube, as performed by the artists for whom they were written. Finally, the viola is getting some respect!
