Sonata for Solo Cello

Titre

Sonata for Solo Cello

Description

Black composer Adolphus Cunningham Hailstork III's compositional style blends musical ideas from both the African American and European traditions.

The publisher's website shares the following notes for the "Sonata for Cello": "Hailstork's Sonata for Solo Cello is a 17-minute journey through musical depths. Each of its three movements explores a spectrum of moods and tempi, with thoroughly braided paths of interrelated themes. While the sonata starts with a wink at Bach as a diving-in point, its development and overall profundity are more akin to the monuments of later musical literature."
Duration: 17 minutes
