Description

“The piece was commissioned by the young cellist Theresa who i met at a workshop.It combines both groove and rock elements and challenges the player to sing while playing.” (M. Bartolomey)A young cellist called Theresa inspired Bartolomey to write this composition: from a trill, a motive develops that quickly intensifies and varies. It leads into the main part of the work which is characterised by rhythmically distinct themes and percussive effects. Short repetitive passages create a groove that will immediately make audiences‘ feet tap. There‘s an exciting, interpretative challenge awaiting the player in the middle of the piece that shall not be revealed at this point. A “must have“ for all those who dare to try something new on the cello and want to look beyond the “bow“.
