Viola Spaces

Part studies in the viola and part concert music, Knox pushes the envelope in the possibilities of his instrument and creates some really interesting music. The later tracks on the album are also fun, especially Jonah and the Whale. What really grabs me about this album is that its fun to listen to regardless of the interesting techniques used. Its simply good music that a non-expert could enjoy. Also on the album: Johannes Eva, Julien Heichelbech, Marie Petit, Cyprien Busolini, Aurelien Grais, Carol Robinson, Nathalie Chabot, Agnès Vesterman, and Gerard Buquet. A really fascinating record.
