Concerto für Violoncello und Kammerorchester - Noten für Thérèse Brenet

This concerto is a stormy work: dry and violent in the first movement, full of rich harmonies in the third movement. Only the second movement, in contrast, resounds with an infinite softness.

There are very few metronomic indications or other indications of tempo. Therese Brenet wanted to write a music which breathes and which gives the conductor the possibility to make choices to create an interpretation in the true sense of the word.
