LIGETI SONATA FOR CELLO SOLO

Very original and innovative composition (1953), artistically influenced by Bartok's musical mentality. The 1st movement, the Dialogo, renders a dialogue between two persons, using the bow for one, and Pizzicato for the other, and combining a wide variety of techniques. The 2nd movement (Capriccio) is a very demanding and virtuoso. Professor: Denis Zhdanov Student: Dmitry Silvian.
