Abstract
"Abstracts for the Mind" is a three-movement work for viola and orchestra and was written between the fall semester of 2007 and the spring semester of 2008. Following the piece is my analysis of the work. fn it I will cover the different forms of each movement, how the movements were constructed, and different aspects that pertain to each movement separately. tt is my goal that anyone with a basic knowledge of music will have a more thorough understanding of my piece when they finish reading the analysis.
