Imagine the thrill of flying among the stars. Solaris, by Cooper Ford, paints this exciting musical picture through its variety of rhythmic motion and surprising harmonic textures. Centered in D minor, each part employs different bowing techniques and some shifting in the 1st violin, cello, and bass parts. This piece will be lots of fun for both performers and audiences alike!

“Solaris is a great attention-catcher for both players and audience! Using different syncopation patterns – though not overly complex – Cooper Ford keeps momentum going the whole way for the listener. There is enough interest and balance in each part for all involved. Contrasting timbres within this piece is achieved through a counter melody as well as a pizzicato section, rather than simply relying on dynamics.” – Jacqui (Education Manager)
