Die 12 Cellisten der Berliner Philharmoniker
Notas del compositor
When one thinks of the cello, possibly the first attribute that comes to mind is its lyrical and sensual expressiveness. But it also has another side: an earthy intensity that can be transformed into a rough, charged, and almost manic virtuosity. It is this latter affect that I sought in Spark. With a ceaseless stream of repeated notes and figurations, Spark continually charges forward, the low, earthy tone of the cellos only occasionally interrupted by brief, effervescent flashes of harmonics, which fly by like sparks. The work is written for the 12 Celli of the Berlin Philharmonic.
