Premieres & dedicated works

Duo Ditirambo is committed with the expansion of new originally written repertoire for viola and guitar. Thus, a significant aspect of our work focuses on commissioning and premiering new works that contribute to the consolidation of a new canon in the chamber music tradition; the viola and guitar ensemble.
