| Description |
|---|
| Blues Impromptu is a cello solo work in the Western classical tradition that reflects American music. It displays a rounded progressive form. The musical events stem extended playing techniques such as extreme high registers, extensive use of natural harmonics and multi layering effects with sul ponticello on fast note ostinato passages playing in the high register on top of the tail motive of the opening melody performed with double stops in the lower register. The closing section features the melody played with a left hand pizzicato over a sustained pedal |
