A Highwire Act, for violin, cello and piano, Score and parts

The piano, the violin and the cello share an essential feature: their sound is generated by vibrating strings, or - to draw from the title of this piece - vibrating ?wires?. As if stealthily climbing over each other, the instruments in A Highwire Act run the gauntlet of crossing and exploring the extreme regions of their strings. Nirmali Fenn?s music reminds us of the beauty and thrill of being on the edge.
