about
"Stand Still for solo violin (2011) is a monologue of brooding nostalgia with flashes of virtuosic impudence. Over four short movements, the violin’s open strings resonate with a harmonic image that acts as a focal point around which the musical ideas pivot and play ... there are hints of the Baroque, Folkloric, and Romantic traditions, snippets of diverse expressions which are all about my love for the instrument.
I had a close look at Westhoff, Guillemain and Bjarne Brustad solo violin scores, and I listened to recordings of my favourite violinist playing Bach. All of this set a context for my new piece, and writing the notes on the page wasn't difficult – it all came together very quickly." – Michael Oesterle

Muto Infinitas
by Catherine Lambsupported by 8 fans who also own “Stand Still - Mvt. 3”
Mostly slow, mysterious, strange, two simple musical lines cross and uncross in an apparently infinite variety of combinations, creating all sorts of illusions and confusions. Beautiful, engaging, and leaves me wanting more.
