Product description
Concert music for violoncello was written on an impulse of Czech cellist, gambist and artist Petr Hejný. Three short movements emphasise beauty of the instrumental sound in expressive motifs.
In such a transparent structure that utilizes tonal centers the author draws on the colour of violoncello that reminds him, as he says, of a solo voice. The piece builds upon a very pleasant melodic line. It may be performed even by an advanced amateur and it is very amiable for a professional.
Eduard Douša (* August 31, 1951, Prague) is a Czech composer and pedagogue. In 1971 he completed his studies in musicology at Charles University in Prague and continued his education at music theory and composition at the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague. He is a professor at the Prague Conservatory and lectures at the Institute of Musicology, Faculty of Arts, Charles University. In addition to orchestral music, chamber compositions and music for solo instruments, Douša composed music for Czech Radio for more than a hundred radio fairy tales, mini-operas and children's songs.
