L IONEL TERTIS, the British viola vir-
JJ tuoso with an international reputation has had a number of works for viola solo in combination with other instruments written specially for him by his numerous friends among contemporary composers.
This sonata is one such work. It was written ten years ago, and had much success in this country before it was selected for performance at the Festival of the International Society for Contemporary Music at Salzbnrg in 1924. The scnata is in three movements; the first is of great virility, the second has been variously described as satanic',' and as ' Pandora's Box,' and the third is quiet and almost wistful after the turbulent music which has preceded it.
