Modern solo
cello compositions by women composers
Does anyone know of any good solo cello works written by women
composers? I am loking for something short or multi-movement,
substantive, and on the technical level of the Hindemith solo sonata
or the Kodaly.

Re: Modern solo

I know there is a fairly recent cd out of 20th century pieces for
cello (and probably piano) by British women. I have no idea of the
actual title or label tho I'm afraid! Sofia Gubaidulina wrote some
very challenging (and very modern) preludes for solo cello. Can't
think of anything else off hand I'm afraid. Good luck.
Lee.

You might want to check out www.hildegard.com. They specialize in
music by women composers.

My mom wrote a nice piece that might fill the bill - check out the
mp3 on the link below. I can get the music sent to you if you want.

Re: Modern solo

I have an unpublished piece by Libby Larsen called "Scudding" which
is mezza-mezza. There are also a couple of solo works by Augusta
Read Thomas which are in print. Best bet is to look up solo cello
CD's...there are so many out there, a lot of indie labels who may
record marginally-known composers. Check out the Composers'
Recordings Inc. (CRI)website, which has a separate listing, I
believe....something like http://www.composersrecordings.com,/
if not try a Google search.
