A cello concert consisting of solo works and premiere of “Soliloquy” for Five Cellos.
About this event
A program about loss and humanity, the culmination of a grant from Arts Council Napa Valley, the world-premiere of Eric Moore’s eight-movement “Soliloquy” for Five Cellos, a piece written about the loss of his mother, also a musician, after years of battling multiple cancers. The first half of the program includes a rarely-performed version of Bach’s monumental Ciaccona for Violin, transcribed for cello.
