Add Viola and Stir by Katrina Wreede Katrina Wreede : Add Viola and Stir.
 From fun and jazzy to moody and melancholic.

Stir up a tasteful mixture of humor, wit, drama, and passion from one acoustic viola with a few good friends. Katrina Wreede, a former Turtle Island String Quartet violist and composer, creates unique and compelling jazz, blues, tango, classical, and swampy, swingy, pulsing sound collages in her trademark "California Eclectic" style.

Flow from a "martini and melancholy" cool jazz blues into a jazz waltz blend of Bill Evans and Dave Brubeck, including an eastern European "Take Five" section. There's a Latin jazz melody inspired by French Impressionist composer, d'Indy, an ebullient tango with accordion, the elegant and introspective "Scenes" for harp and viola, a blindingly fast, Baroque-flavored groove called "Romp", and the powerfully intense cry to the heavens, "Invocation #3", accompanied by giant chimes.
