Written for Edna Mitchell and Yehudi Menuhin
NOTES:
Echorus (derived from the word echo), was composed in the winter of 1994-95
for Edna Michell and Yehudi Menuhin. The piece is in A-B-A form and appears
as a chaconne. The soloists either play the chaconne or melodic parts suggested
by the harmonic structure. The music is inspired by thoughts of compassion
and is meant to evoke feelings of serenity and peace.
— Philip Glass
