Description
New Beginnings for cello ensemble was commissioned by the Länsi-Helsingin musiikkiopisto (West-Helsinki music school) and composed in 2019.
The swinging and lyrical composition has the pedagogical intention to allow players of different levels of advancement to play together: the lower parts (cello 3 & 4) are easier to perform while the higher parts (cello 1 & 2) are more advanced. The piece aims to develop the communication skills of the young musicians within the ensemble and the ending is a charming percussive conversation between the 4 sections.
