Downloadable and printable PDF edition. The composer tells: "Waiting to hear was commissioned by my publisher, Fennica Gehrman, as part of a volume of new duos celebrating their 20th anniversary. I got the request shortly before the untimely death of my friend the violinist, composer and conductor Jaakko Kuusisto, and I wanted to write something for him, for his instrument. (Or perhaps for myself.) The violin spins out a slow, blissful, tender melody over a peaceful, unchanging piano accom-paniment. The expression is restrained and expectant, like bracing oneself for news one knows is coming, but not when."

Waiting to hear is included in Fennica Gehrman's 20th-anniversary collection Stringendo - contemporary music for violin and piano (ISMN 9790550117853).
