IVS Silver Alto Clef 2020 - Garth Knox

The 2020 Silver Alto Clef of The International Viola Society has been awarded to violist-composer Garth Knox. As a performer, Garth Knox has contributed to the interpretation of contemporary music, combined with a strong footing in early music and traditional folk music. As a composer, Garth Knox has given us valuable new additions to the viola literature. With his popular “Viola Spaces” series, Knox has defined a wide range of “extended techniques” for viola playing, and made these ideas directly accessible through a series of YouTube videos. He also shows great creativity by making the most out of minimal settings, such as in his "Pocket concerto" for viola and cello, and his "Quartet for One". Garth Knox received the award during a ceremony in Rotterdam on November 19th 2021, a full year late because of the COVID pandemic. We will now listen to his latest work, the "Lockdown blues", written for the Dutch Ragazze string quartet.
