  Violalia Duo is a collaboration between violinist/violist Laura Thompson and violist/composer Hannah Selin. The duo embraces the limber, conversational nature of their instrumentation, bringing musicality, curiosity, and a sense of humor to audiences in often-intimate concert settings. The group’s name is a both mashup of violin and viola, and a play on the word glossolalia (speaking in tongues). The duo will premiere a new collaborative work based on a haunting field recording, as well as an amplified improvisation with custom-built electronics. Laura will perform Eugène Ysaÿe’s dreamlike Solo Sonata No. 5 “Aurore,” and Hannah will premiere Matthew Greenbaum's Tromba Marina for viola, electronics, and video. Rounding out the program are Masques et Berg by Stefano Gervasoni and topsy-turvy fiddle tunes by Dan Trueman and Brittany Haas.
