Cello Counterpoint Version for Cello Octet Study Score

Más información sobre el libro

Scored for eight cellos, this composition can be performed by either a soloist with pre-recorded parts or by a Cello Octet, featuring variations in part distribution. The work consists of three movements: fast, slow, and fast, with the outer movements based on a four-chord cycle that oscillates between C minor and E-flat major. The slow movement presents a canon in E-flat minor, culminating with seven distinct voices. Co-commissioned by prominent institutions, it lasts just over 11 minutes and was created for cellist Maya Beiser.
