Mountain Song, for Viola and Piano

In March of 2007, after giving a presentation at a professional conference in the Denver area, I had the chance to spend one day in the Rocky Mountains west of town before heading back to El Paso. With its crisp air, its brilliant sun shining on a snow-covered landscape, the majestic 14,000-foot peaks in the surrounding areas, and the broad views of the Great Plains to the east, this setting provided the inspiration for Mountain Song. On that quiet, relaxed afternoon, I leisurely hiked some trails in the area, stopping along the way just to sit and admire the vistas, listen to the sounds of nature, and ponder the beauty around me and the wonder of life itself. In Mountain Song, I hope to convey some of the moods of that spring day in the mountains. Dominic Dousa
