Grass Roots for Cello and Piano #Cello, Piano #INTERMEDIATE/ADVANCED #Contemporary #Sy Brandon #Grass Roots for Cello and Pian #Sy Brandon #SheetMusicPlus

Cello,Piano - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.755018 Composed by Sy Brandon. 20th Century,Contemporary. Score and part. 36 pages. Sy Brandon #3243597. Published by Sy Brandon (A0.755018). Grass Roots was composed during 2009-2010 for tuba and piano and adapted for cello and piano by the composer in 2016. The inspiration for this composition was Ken Burnâ€™s series on Americaâ€™s National Parks. The composer was not only inspired by the beauty and grandeur of the parks, but also by the vision of a few people that turned into the reality, therefore the title of this composition. The first movement is called A Voice in the Wilderness and represents the voice of John Muir, who recognized the beauty of Yosemite and made an effort to preserve it for future generations. The lyrical sections reflect the beauty of the area and the chromaticism reflects the uncertainty of his efforts. Conflicts is the title of the second movement as it represents the opposing forces in the debate to create a national park system. Lively rhythm and counterpoint are used throughout the movement to express the opposing points of view and the heated arguments. The last movement, Manifestations is the realization of the dream of a national park system. The movement is lyrical and flowing and is designed to be both serene and awe-inspiring.
