Turning Point is a bold overture-style original work for strings, designed for festival or contest use. A solemn opening is following by a rhythmic modal theme, contrasted with a expressive middle section. The movement returns to the driving “A” theme and then into an impressive full ensemble coda.

Duration: ca 5:00.

Instrumentation: conductor -- violin 1 -- violin 2 -- violin 3 (viola tc) -- viola -- cello - bass -- piano for rehearsal only.
