Product Description

"Abrahams Walk" is a reflection, for viola and piano, of the dramatic biblical story of God calling on Abraham to demonstrate his faith by sacrificing his son, Isaac. The beginning sets a peaceful mood with a quiet modal tune, first in piano and then viola, but somber chords intervene.  Then God calls to Abraham three times, each time louder, the last time thunderously.  After a pause, the viola captures Abrahams stunned and then agitated response, as he processes what hes being asked to do.  Tragically resolved, he begins the trudging walk to his sons doom, which builds to a climax in both instruments, culminating in Gods calling again to Abraham, this time to stay his knife hand.
