Barbara
Heller's duet
'Herbstmusik' [Autumnal
Music] for cello and
piano is a short piece of
5-6 minutes' duration
which is as vibrant and
colourful as the season
itself and a welcome
addition to the
repertoire for this
combination of
instruments. Graded at
intermediate level, it is
also a suitable extension
to the contemporary
repertoire for advanced
young cellists and for
playing in youth music
competitions (age range
11-16).This piece only
requires players to use
the first four positions
plus harmonics.
Fingerings and bowings
were added in
collaboration with the
cellist Katharina Deserno
from Cologne. An
improvised solo cello
cadenza may be added,
starting from the Bb with
fermata in bar 88. This
might draw on the musical
material in the preceding
bars 85-88, possibly
making use of motifs and
playing techniques
already featured in the
piece, such as 'col
legno' or 'pizzicato' -
but no limits should be
placed upon the
performer's
imagination.
