Online premiere for Viner’s ‘Chase’

15 July 2021

We were very pleased to see Frederick Viner’s new work ‘Chase’ performed on Paul Barton's YouTube channel this week. A Feurich artist, Paul has amassed more than half a million subscribers on YouTube, and many of his performances have been viewed over a million times. 

On his own YouTube channel, Viner describes ‘Chase’ as ‘a short, fun work pitched at the upper-intermediate level.’ He adds: ‘I didn't set out to write an earworm, but the jazzy tune and driving 3-3-2 rhythm combined to make what is probably my catchiest piece yet!’

You can watch the performance via this link:

Fred’s work ‘Something she’d like’ was premiered on the channel some seven months ago, and we hope this new performance is the start of a sustained relationship!
