		The emergence of Lionel Tertis as a champion of the viola in the earliest years of the twentieth century transformed its standing as a solo instrument.

		Lionel Tertis tells how Bowen, ‘a talented boy still in knickerbockers, turned up one day with his first orchestral work’.

		Gordon Jacob’s Suite for Eight Violas was one of the last of many works written in homage to the great English viola virtuoso Lionel Tertis (1876-1975).
		It was composed in 1976 to celebrate the centenary of Tertis’ birth and premiered at the Wigmore Hall, London, on New Year’s Day 1977, by the violas of the BBC Symphony Orchestra – 19 months after his death at the age of 98.
		Gordon Jacob was celebrated as an authority on orchestration and instrumental technique, and doubtless relished the challenge of writing such varied and entetarining music for what would, at first glance, appear a very limited combination of instruments.

		I cannot conjecture as to whether Tertis had any knowledge of, or was at all influenced by, the work of Ritter, but I do feel that the trend towards developing a truly modern viola had been set.
