NotesFor Seamus O'Grady.
Programme NoteIn writing this piece, I took as a starting point a short passage from the concerto for viola and orchestra I wrote in memory of Charlie Maguire. It is my way of saying thank you to Seamus O'Grady for invaluable help he gave me in relation to certain aspects of that concerto.
