I am really interested to see that you have been playing the viola d'amore.
You've championed some great but somewhat overlooked stuff in some of your work and I certainly think the viola d'amore is great!
I was absolutely entranced by it the first time I heard it in a recording (on violadamore.com about 3 years ago). There is also one in the Yale Collection of Musical Instruments but it is in a glass case.
Looking forward to hearing it in live performance some day!
(BTW you've gotten quite a bit of air time on WMNR in Connecticut this past year or so and you sound just great.)
