Beschreibung
Miniatures is a book of four exquisite, evocative and beautifully written
works for unaccompanied double bass. Each combines a wealth of musical and
technical challenges, exploring a range of colours and textures throughout
the solo tessitura of the double bass. 1. Vor dem Abend (Before Evening)has
a free rhapsodic feel, interspersed with lyrical and cantabile episodes, and
offers much to the adventurous advanced solo bassist. There are many
technical challenges, but which are always worth the effort, and this is
successful in performance and certainly does not outstay its welcome. 2. Zur
den ersten Bluten (The first flowers) explores a number of playing techniques
to create texture and effect. Lyricism is always to the fore, and the musical
and technical challenges offer repertoire which is useful as a recital work
or also as study repertoire. Much can be gained from studying these short and
accessible miniatures. 3. Der Regen am Morgen (Rain in the Morning) is
simple and straightforward, but with a serious musical intent and message. It
begins and ends gently, with ethereal and ringing harmonics contrasting a
more lively and energetic middle section which is full of running and
repeated semiquavers. 4. Fantasie in E minor (dedicated to Ludwig Streicher)
is a beautiful and lyrical rhapsody and dedicated to the great Austrian
virtuoso Ludwig Streicher. There is drama and pathos, lyricism and energy,
and everything needed for a successful performance work. Only one page in
length, this is a work of great quality and beauty and deserves a place in
the solo repertoire. Dario Cebic was born in Zagreb (Croatia) and learned
