Work for Cello Quartet

Ascensions

Contact to Purchase
Score and Parts - $30

Ascensions was commissioned by Holes in the Floor Cello Quartet in the HitF/NEC Composers Commission for their New England Tour 2019. The piece follows a through line of moving from the lowest C on all the cellos through to the C at the top of their range, stopping and resting as a collected unit at different pitches throughout. It is also very microtonal, sounding akin to the music of Ligeti.
