Moments Worth Listening For
The frantic, high-register violin runs in the third movement of the Violin Concerto that feel like a physical chase.
The transition into the second movement of the Sonata where the piano takes on a more somber, grounding role against the violin's mourning.
The way 'Morning Passages' uses repetitive piano cycles to create a sense of time dilating and contracting.
