Belgian organist, composer and teacher, Joseph Jongen (1873-1953) was admitted to the Liège Conservatoire at the mere age of seven years old. Published in 1925, Allegro Appassionato is an extraordinary addition to the viola repertoire. Jongen won many awards during his sixteen years of musical education, including the Belgain Prix de Rome in 1897. He began composing at age 13 and therefore, has an exhaustive catalogue of works to his name. Allegro Appassionato is a virtuosic work for the Viola, addressing aspects such as harmonics, exploited tonality, chromaticism, double stops, flourishing semiquavers, complex rhythms, articulation and a significant amount if performance directions and dynamics, among other elements. For all advanced violists, Jongen's Allegro Appassionato is essential to a varied repertoire.

On her 34th birthday, Clara Schumann was not only given a grand piano by her husband, but the latest music material as well. Among them was the one-movement Concert-Allegro with Introduction for Pianoforte and Orchestra Op. 134 in which the dominance of the solo instrument is even stronger than in the previous composition Introduction and Allegro appassionato Op. 92 which also consists of one movement only. With both works, Schumann continued the reformation of the solo concerto genre as intended.

Although an intermezzo may be found between the acts of a play or an opera, it may also be an independent work. These five intermezzi each have a different character: dramatic, energetic, lyrical, expressive, and emphatic. The movements are Allegro con brio, Lento espressivo, Allegro ritmico, Adagio espressivo, and Allegro appassionato. They may be played individually or in smaller groups.

Sonata for cello and piano was written between September and October of 2010. It is made up of three movements, each of which has unique characteristics. The first, Allegro appassionato, is monothematic, although the theme itself is presented in several ways. Following a vigorous start featuring cello cadenza, the movement is developed with a lively feel, alternating lyrical fragments with other energetic ones. Its conclusion is resounding.Meanwhile, the second movement, Quasi un lamento, is introspective and fragile. A long melody is sustained by a delicate and transparent piano accompaniment, evoking once again the theme of the first movement and concluding with a Lento of descending piano harmonies while the cello follows, in octaves, with heartfelt glissando.The third movement, Scherzando-Allegro, is a light-hearted game between the piano and the cello. The main theme is repeated once again, this time with a binary time signature. The cello uses ricochet (the rebounding of notes in a bow stroke), as well as natural and artificial harmonies in quick time. The piano part unfolds completely naturally, excluding any gratuitous artifice.The piece lasts approximately 20 minutes.
