Written in 2001, this work was conceived by the need to enlarge the repertoire of works for solo cello, an important goal since the repertoire of such works is limited. Most cellists are limited to performances of such well-known solo works as the Suites of Bach, written almost 300 years ago, as well as other classics of the genre by Max Reger, Zoltan Kodaly, Benjamin Britten, Gaspar Cassado, Enric Casals, etc.The intention of the Suite Exotique is to revolutionize the concept of the Baroque suite by transforming the suite into a collection of modern dances, which are both contemporary and widely recognized today. Thus, the dances of the Baroque suite, such as Allemande, Courante, Sarabande are substituted for the Tango, Milonga, Blues in such a way that the traditional formal structure of six movements of Baroque dances is modernized by rhythms and contemporary styles which coexist in the Modern world, but are separate from and do not pertain to those works which are normally considered to belong to the realm of cultured music.Apart from the fusion represented by the mixture of a Baroque genre with modern, urban musical language found in this work, the subtitle exotica is appropriate due to the originality of writing such a work for cello solo. This work allows the interpreter to explore and take full advantage of their technical, artistic and expressive abilities.This work establishes a total symbiosis between the instrument and the evolutionary transformation of its musical language which in turn creates a style adapted to the expressive requirements of the work itself. The specific techniques and qualities of the cello are placed in service of the required style and concept of each movement of the Suite. At the same time those stylistic characteristics are transformed and adapted to the particular characteristics of the cello and taking full advantage of the instruments polyphonic, sonic, aesthetic qualities as well as its timbre.The Suite Exotique was premiered in August, 2003 during the International Music Festival of Ibiza by the Russian cellist Svetlana Tovstukha.

Die Form der Komposition ist dem Weg eines Gedankens vergleichbar, der unvermittelt Neues ebenso enthalten kann wie Ruckbezuge und Erinnerungen und dessen zeitlicher Verlauf keiner ausseren Logik folgt. Dennoch gibt es ein Netz von inneren Beziehungen zwischen einer Vielzahl von Elementen, die permanent erscheinen, verschwinden, sich verwandeln und verschmelzen; ein Prozess, der sich in der Vielschichtigkeit von Klangereignissen des Instruments widerspiegelt. Gleichzeitig tendiert die Form der internen Zersplitterung gelegentlich zur Selbstauflosung. Zwei eingeschobene Spiegelkanons lassen die Klange zu Linien werden und die Zeit zum richtungslosen Raum. Doch auch sie bleiben fluchtig und werden gebunden an die Form, die aus dem Spiel von Gedanken besteht, wie auch aus ihrem Vergessen.
