The orchestration has a Straussian depth and complexity, swept along by a Romantic undercurrent that is enthralling but unpredictable. With The Seasons, twenty years on, Musgrave creates an astonishing tapestry of sound – as rich and diverse as the paintings in the Metropolitan Museum of Art that inspired it. It swoops and flutters with dramatic energy, giving the performance a raw excitement, despite the relative austerity of the musical language. The soloist in the Clarinet Concerto physically moves around the orchestra to confront and cajole various concertante groups of instruments (including an accordion). Spanning 25 years of Thea Musgrave’s career as a composer, these three pieces demonstrate a consistently vivid orchestral imagination. ![]() PERFORMER: Victoria Soames (clarinet, bass clarinet)BBC Scottish SO/Thea Musgrave 24 : Pour Piano Et Violoncelle.WORKS: Clarinet Concerto The Seasons Autumn Sonata Worcester Source - 4 pieces for cello and double bass La Suite Dels Ocells: Hommage à Pablo CasalsĬoncert Music for Cello and String Orchestra ![]() Two solo cellists, percussion, and cello choir Mersiye (Concerto For Cello And Orchestra) Bass Clarinet Concerto 'Autumn Sonata': V.

Another thank you to Jing Li and the rest of the CelloBello staff for the hundreds of hours they’ve poured into further research. Thank you to cellist Wendy Velasco for sharing her initial work with CelloBello, and to all of her contributors that built the initial repertoire list. We hope it sparks curiosity and inspires your musical growth. Our dream would be to have such rich representation in our field that such a database would not be needed, but until that time comes we are proud to have this resource available. We hope this resource inspires you in the practice room, in your teaching, and in your artistic programming. We hope that compiling this information and making it free and accessible to the world will help us take steps towards expanding and rethinking the classical music canon. CelloBello’s intention with all of our repertoire databases is to highlight groups whose music is often underrepresented in our field. There is a pressing need for greater representation in the classical music canon - on the stage, in music schools, and in our practice rooms. Welcome to CelloBello’s database of Cello Works by Women Composers! ![]()
