Misc. Notes Arranged for violin and cello. I transposed the viola part down an octave and put it in bass clef, the cellist made some minor adjustments. Here we hear David Wang on violin and Amar Basu on cello. This comes from the Music of Engineering concert at Wayne State University held on October 22, 2010. David Wang is a recently graduated student in electrical engineering, Amar Basu teaches electrical engineering. (This piece closed the program, which opened with a new composition by Keith Buckner).
