for solo cello. Par LARCHER THOMAS. I do not compose my pieces for a certain voice range or orchestration, but for musicians, for people. It is almost impossible for me to produce a piece without having a particular person in mind or to hear him/her inwardly. No matter how standardized the interpretation of classical music is, and no matter how many coordinates have been fixed and defined, I do not want to have them seen (and therewith the notation) as determining and limiting signs, but rather as guideposts towards the creation of vital, organic music. In differentiated music, two participants are necessary in order for a piece to evolve-- the composer and the musician. Just as there is no one way for a composer to express himself or to notate music, etc., neither is there one way for a musician to read the notation, to interpret, or to live. We find ourselves, for this reason, in a network of meanings, gestures, and signs which have to be fathomed and expanded together. The tone, the breath, the gestures, the dedication, and the potentialities of a musician were also ultimately decisive for the form of this piece. It is music which pushes the expressive and technical possibilities of the instrument to its very limits. It is music in which the musician has to transport the contexts and expression over and above the notation. It was not necessary for me to find a new form for this piece; it is a work which can and should be performed in a ‘normal’ concert situation. I deliberately wanted to integrate the perhaps new and unusual content into a familiar form (thus the title ‘Sonata’) And I also wanted to embed the aforementioned extreme situations (in which the technical extremes are synonyms for tension, isolation, loss or tenderness) in an organic process in order for the listener to be able to empathize with and comprehend what is expressed in the piece. I would like to thank Natalie Clein, to whom the Sonata is dedicated, for inspiring this piece and for the path that led to the realization of the music. Thomas Larcher/ Répertoire / Violoncelle

À la fin du XVIIIe siècle , le violoncelliste et compositeur Jean-Baptiste Bréval n’a pas seulement créé des concertos virtuoses pour son instrument, mais aussi des sonates plus faciles ainsi que des duos qui, de nos jours, font toujours partie du noyau dur du répertoire pédagogique du violoncelle. La Sonate en Ut majeur op. 40 n° 1, qui s’ouvre sur des accords très prenants, offre déjà aux violoncellistes débutants la possibilité de se laisser emporter dans de superbes mélodies, et de maîtriser de petits changements de position.
La première édition parue à Paris en 1799 n’est pas très précise concernant le choix de l’instrument d’accompagnement. C’est pourquoi plusieurs alternatives sont proposées dans cette édition Urtext: une partition à deux parties, permettant à un second violoncelle, pendant le cours, d’accompagner commodément, de même qu’un discret soutien pour piano, pouvant être utilisé lors d’auditions. Ce ticket d’entrée dans le répertoire de violoncelle est en outre parachevé par une partie de soliste discrètement annotée. / Partitions classique / Cordes / Violoncelle / HENLE VERLAG

Vier Seiten for violoncello is an attempt to present an event that in reality takes about two seconds in extreme slow motion, thus making even the micromovements visible or audible beyond the straight line of motion.When I composed the piece, the fatal accident of Ayrton Senna came to my mind again and again - an accident which was shown on TV in slow motion again and again until it became unbearable. The fast motion of the car immediately before the crash into a concrete wall, a motion which was no longer purposeful but out of control and which had the car pulled to and fro and from side to side, was followed by that crash. In this extreme slow motion, it is no longer shown as a crash but as the fast telescoping of carbon fibre, metal and human body parts.After this crash, as a postlude so to speak, everything suddenly slowed down, tyres and automotive particles floating in the air, the torso of the vehicle swinging until the motion stopped. It was not until this moment that I realized that the whole presentation of the incident had been accompanied by paralyzing silence. / Violoncelle
