Sophistication

Taken from the late-classical/early-romantic tradition, this album is a beautifully crafted series of sonatinas for cello and piano, ranging from meditative and stately to fiery tango-esque works evoking a sultry elegance and high culture. Performed by highly talented players and recorded using real instruments.

  • 1. DANCE OF THE SERPENT AND THE EARTH 00:02:39 PASSIONATE, GRIPPING AND DRAMATIC. A RHYTHMIC PIANO KICKS THINGS OFF, THE EARTH, UNTIL THE CELLO, THE SERPENT, JOINS IN AND THEY MOVE IN A PASSIONATE EMBRACE, SYNCHRONIZED AND MATCHING EACH OTHER'S MOVEMENTS PERFECTLY. AFTER THE MAIN THEME IS STATED, A CHANGE OF MOOD AT 0:56 WITH A LONG MELODY TAKES OVER UNTIL WE RETURN TO A LIGHTER VERSION OF THE MAIN THEME AT 1:48.

  • 2. FALLING 00:02:16 STATELY, SERIOUS AND EMOTIONAL. A PULSATING, MINOR PIANO CHORD INVITES THE CELLO TO JOIN WITH AN ASCENDING MELANCHOLIC MELODY. THE BRIDGE, BEGINNING AT 0:58, BECOMES MORE UPLIFTING UNTIL FINALLY BRINGING US BACK TO THE VARIATION ON THE MAIN THEME AT 1:28.

  • 3. RED AND WHITE 00:02:29 PLAYFUL, DYNAMIC AND GRITTY. A STRIKING, GRITTY CELLO STARTS US OFF WITH A PLAYFUL, RHYTHMIC MELODY TEASING THE PIANO TO JOIN THE FUN. THEY BEGIN THEIR DANCE AT 0:29 THEN BRIEFLY RETURNING TO THE OPENING RHYTHMIC FIGURE. THE BRIDGE BEGINS AT 1:12 AS THE CELLO DEPARTS WITH ITS OWN SWEEPING, MELODIC LINE FULL OF LONGING, AND FINALLY RETURNING TO THE OPENING FIGURE, NOW WITH A CONTRAPUNTAL TWIST.

  • 4. THE TORN LUDWIG 00:02:44 WITH ITS IRREGULAR METER, THIS PIECE LEAVES YOU FEELING UNEASY AS IF THE GROUND COULD OPEN UP AND TAKE YOU DOWN TO THE LAP OF THE UNDERWORLD.

  • 5. THE NEXT DAY 00:02:07 CONTEMPLATIVE, LULLING AND BRIGHT. A SWEET AND GENTLE BREEZE OF A MELODY EMBRACES US AND EVOKES AN IDYLLIC, PASTORAL SCENE UNTIL 0:47 WHEN A STORM MOVES IN AND DISRUPTS THE MOOD.

  • 6. THE FLIRTATION 00:01:36 PLAYFUL, SEDUCTIVE AND DYNAMIC. THE PIANO AND CELLO LAUNCH THE TRACK WITH A FIERY RHYTHM THAT QUICKLY TRANSFORMS INTO A SULTRY MELODY. AT 0:40 A BRIEF BRIDGE GIVES US A RESPITE FROM THE PASSIONATE INTENSITY UNTIL RETURNING TO THE OPENING THEME AT 0:55. AT 1:23 A GENTLE AND SOMEWHAT MISLEADING CODA BRINGS US TO THE FINAL STING.

  • 8. THE CONSIDERATION 00:01:48 MELANCHOLIC, SERIOUS AND TENDER. THE PIANO DECEPTIVELY LEADS US IN WITH A JAUNTY LULL, BUT THE CELLO SOON DISRUPTS THE BOUNCE WITH A MELANCHOLIC MELODY. AT 0:48 THERE'S A BRIEF ESCALATION OF HOPE AS THE CELLO CLIMBS TO A SOMEWHAT VICTORIOUS CLIMAX, BUT QUICKLY LEVELS BACK TO A RESTATEMENT OF THE ORIGINAL THEME AT 1:08.
