cc squareViscous Summer Days. Aleksander Pusz, 2000. Score for solo violin and vibraphone. From the composer: “Viscous Summer Days was written about the feeling of lethargy towards the end of a heatwave, and was an unpaid commission requested by Bogdan Kazmierczek (violin) and my father, Ryszard Pusz (percussion). Live performances tend to be around six minutes because the super slow tempo is very difficult to hold onto!”.[purchase_link id=”2173″ style=”button” color=”red” text=”Add to Cart”]
