Quiet Music

Quiet Music (2007) is a three movement work for solo violoncello. Its title refers to the work’s singular sonority, dominated by the use of natural harmonics and the exclusive use of the practice mute (a large mute radically affecting the instrument’s voice). Quiet Music was commissioned by cellists David Russell, Craig Hultgren, Jonathan Golove, and Madeleine Shapiro with assistance from the Birmingham Art Music Alliance.
