Published: MPB 37, 112-118
NOTES: Unless otherwise stated, the "Reduced Magnitudes" in the plots are Cousins R, based on 2MASS to BVRI conversions (Warner, MPB 34, 113-119)

Worked as 1999 CZ1.

The period was originally reported as 3.98 (Warner, B.D. (2005) Minor Planet Bul. 32, 54-58). The images were remeasured using 2MASS to BVRI conversions and near solar-color stars for comparisons, which lead to the revised period of 4.35 h.

The asteroid is named after the my wife, who is an accomplished violist as well as music teacher (viola, violin).
