Prokofiev completed part of the first movement of this sonata, leaving behind sketches for the rest. Vladimir Blok took up these sketches and ultimately completed the first movement
#854 Beyond what many people consider to be the “intermediate” player. Extensive use of thumb position in arpeggios, complex rhythms, bowing, double stops and chords. Solo cello
A suite for solo cello includes 8 short movements: Intrada, Cantabile, Minuetto I and II, Siciliano, Pizzicato, Toccatina, and Finale Giocoso. Movements are of uneven difficulty, some staying in first position while others require fluence through 4th. Another good grow-witih-me selection.
This is not a Casals edition, but rather one edited by students and disciplies of Casals. Marie Roemaet Rosanoff and Lieff Rosanoff feel they offer a representation of Casals’ teachings, and his tradition of performance as they remained in personal and artistic contact with Casals. Suite 5 does not use the original tuning (scordatura) but normal tuning.
