about

From the Ashes is a Cello Concerto in 4 movements. This powerful, dramatic work instantly grabs attention as the solo cello integrates with the orchestra right from the start, avoiding the common “double exposition”. Virtuosic passages highlight the capabilities of the cello, while intensity gives way to playfulness in the dance-like sections. The second movement features a haunting theme in the cello against a backdrop of major/minor pizzicato arpeggios in the low strings. The third movement is a solo cello cadenza that further develops material from the first movement and demonstrates full on bravura technique. It leads as a direct attacca in to the fourth movement, the first and only one in a major key, symbolizing the hope and optimism as the cello has risen from the ashes of despair in to the light. The piece leads to its climactic conclusion and ends almost abruptly/unexpectedly. It is my hope that this Cello Concerto will one day be performed live in concert. In the meantime, I present to you my most ambitious virtual recording to date, utilizing the Vienna Symphonic Library Orchestra.
