A melodic fragment, which hints at both folk music and the virtuosic classical violin tradition, acts as a sort of structural anchor for Lara Poe's Musings for solo violin (2014). Musings is structured in sections that alternate between more rhythmically free material and rigorously notated material - the duration is approximately 5 minutes but can vary a great deal.
