Idealism, humanity, world peace, and altruism, have been recurring themes and inspirations in many compositions by Eric Ewazen. In 2007, the Sejong Soloists commissioned this work for Cello and Strings to feature Paula Zahn as guest soloist – the celebrated telejournalist is an exceptional cellist, and a frequent and distinguished host for the concerts Sejong performs in New York City. The work was written for a gala concert honoring Ban Ki-Moon, Secretary General of the United Nations, and therefore the ultimate leader of international peacekeeping efforts. The resulting work, equally suitable for Cello and Piano, is appropriately titled A POEM OF HOPE.

Another commissioned work has Ewazen borrowing from his own The Eternal Dance of Life for a special new gift for cello and piano. The composer says it best: As a former cellist in my youth, have always loved the instrument, and have enjoyed writing for it. The work contains swirling arpeggiated gestures, a lilting compound meter and a real sense of expressivity, allowing the cello to sing with soaring lines and genuine lyricism. For advanced performers.

A beautiful cantabile song without words, A SONG FROM THE HEART has all of Ewazen’s expressive elegance, and is a perfect recital piece both for students and professionals. Originally composed for Trumpet and Piano, this lyrical work has been transcribed for Cello by the composer.

Written in 1972, while Ewazen was pursuing undergraduate studies at Eastman, the Sonata No. 1 for Cello and Piano is his first foray into the 20th-century American tonal music that he first embraced at that time. Composed for a classmate and proficient cellist, Julie Charland, the Sonata is in three movements, the second of which is quite demanding of virtuosity. (Manuscript).
