Cello Piano Duo Pieces
on: February 12, 2004, 09:53:30 AM
Hi,

I am in the process of finding a piece for cello and piano piece that is approximately under 6 minutes, which is going to be assessed at the end of the year.
The requirements are that there must be equal piano and cello parts in the piece.
I have been searching, but the pieces I find are mostly cello dominated!
Anyone got any cello piano duo piece suggestions? Thanks, greatly appreciated.

P.S
one of the criteria asks for interaction between instruments, hope that helps

Movements two and three of Rachamaninoff's cello/piano sonata Op.19 in gminor come in at just a bit over 6 minutes and they are beautiful pieces. :).

any part of brahms' sonatas for cello and piano - especially "chalenging" would be the fugue from the (i think) 1st sonata - must read it, at least. also, the second part is wonderful, and is also very "interactive"

Poems of Ecstasy – Scriabin’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street
The great early 20th-century composer Alexander Scriabin left us 74 published opuses, and several unpublished manuscripts, mainly from his teenage years – when he would never go to bed without first putting a copy of Chopin’s music under his pillow. All of these scores (220 pieces in total) can now be found on Piano Street’s Scriabin page. Read more
