Chahagir for Viola Solo, Op. 56a

Fantastic piece to play and perform. Mysterious sound!

What a beautiful little piece. It is a nice short slow piece filled with interesting harmonies and emotions. It sounds dark, sad, and mysterious at the beginning with rising tensions, then it starts to turn happy, but it sinks back down to what it was like at the beginning filled...

with despair. Then the tensions start to rise higher and higher surpassing where they rose to the first time and just when the gloom seems to be becoming overwhelming at the very end of the piece it all of a sudden ends on a beautiful C major chord. The happiness that last chord brings, after all that went on before it, is unbelievable.
