Cello Solo - Digital Download SKU: A0.1015929 Composed by Joshua MalavÃ©. Contemporary. Individual part. 4 pages. Joshua Malave #5887317. Published by Joshua Malave (A0.1015929). This is a Sonata for Solo Cello in one movement. The idea for this piece was first shown to me in a dream. When I woke up I played the passage with the long chordal slurs and crescendo and had a feeling of sadness that turned into into the rest of the piece. It is in a modified sonata allegro form because that is what I was most familiar with in my student days. I have revised it once since then and it has become one of my most popular pieces.

Cello Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1113882 Composed by Nicholas Yandell. 20th Century,Chamber,Classical,Contemporary,Romantic Period. Individual part. 5 pages. Nicholas Yandell Music #715783. Published by Nicholas Yandell Music (A0.1113882). Written in 2013. Commissioned by cellist Micah Claffey and premiered by him in 2014. Studio recorded (also by Micah Claffey) in 2015. Has also been performed by Marilyn de Oliveira (Assistant Principal Cello of the Oregon Symphony) and Diane Chaplin. Duration: Around 8 minutes; one movement. Level: Great for a student recital piece; popular with college students. A rich, expressive, melodic piece written idiomatically for the cello's voice; easy for a performer to personalize. Appropriate for intermediate students, but certainly challenging enough to be of interest to professionals as well. Program Notes: This work is the third of three solo cello pieces written for Micah Claffey on pastoral/nature themes. The title refers to the surface of a body of water as oneâ€™s head breaks through after a long and strenuous swim beneath it. The core of this work is about defining the character of peace through the odyssey of a single celloâ€™s musical voice. The peace theme starts as just a seed in the beginning; incomplete; represented by the first four notes (a pitch class: 0,4,6,7 or inverted as 0,1,3,7). The cello then plunges into tempestuous waters, but the seed is never lost throughout all the metamorphoses it goes through and all the commotion that surrounds it and this middle section becomes a time of catharsis and refinement. Finally, in the latter third of the work, the theme of peace breaks the surface in its complete form, starting out timidly, but soon climaxing to a powerful and penetrating statement and ending with a sense of relief, clarity, and renewal that exist not in spite of the tumultuous journey, but because of it.
