Arranged by Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco. With Standard notation. Carl Fischer #B002670. Published by Carl Fischer (CF.B2670). Composer/Artist : Mario Castelnuovo-TedescoInstrumentation : Cello, PianoPublisher : Carl FischerItem Number: CF.B2670 Rossini wrote an opera and named it The Barber of Seville. Featured was a character named Figaro, who sang some pretty catchy tunes, including one with the somewhat clunky title Largo al factotum. So catchy was this tune, in fact, that Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco (who knew catchy tunes, having scored more than 200 films) was taken to writing a set of variations for his good friend Gregor Piatigorsky who knew a thing or two about the cello. But, devious as he was, Castelnuovo-Tedesco's variations were increasingly virtuosic, a challenge for even the best cellists. We are pleased to make the Rossini / Castelnuovo-Tedesco / Piatigorsky Figaro once again available, throwing the gauntlet down for a new generation. Mario Castelnuovo-Tedescosheet music
