Composed
for Steven Isserlis in
2004, Carl Vine's
Concerto for Cello is an
exhilarating 20-minute
work that traverses a
vast emotional palette.
The concerto begins
arrestingly, with soloist
pitted against orchestra,
though as it develops the
two factions move towards
union. A slow chorale led
by the cellist frames the
central section, whilst
relentless motor rhythms
drive the work to its
close.
