     Chromatic Variations

    (Hendrik Andriessen)

     

    This piece was composed in 1970 for a chamber orchestra with one recording stating that the instruments involved are flute, oboe, violin, cello and orchestra.  Andriessen was a fervent admirer of French music and in his later compositions, he would write in the 12-tone technique without sticking to all the rules that went along with it.
