Published by Carl Fischer Music (CF.BF147). ISBN 9781491160268. UPC: 680160918850.Castelnuovo-Tedesco’s arrangements of Ravel’s La Vallée des cloches and Rossini’s Figaro originally came to be well-known and beloved in their iterations for violin and piano, before renowned cellist Gregor Piatagorsky requested that Castelnuovo-Tedesco make them available for cello. Both arrangements are sure to become favorite go-tos for the advanced cellist’s recital repertoire. The first is slow, poignant, and sensitive, with all the harmonic lushness and beauty one expects from Ravel, while the second puts a fresh and fun harmonic twist on Figaro from The Barber of Seville, arguably one of the most commonly known and loved opera tunes of all time. With its familiar dashing and virtuosic tune and many show-stopping moments of virtuosity, it will undoubtedly be a favorite of audiences and cellists alike.
