That many cellos? Whoever heard of such a thing? And yet, the repertoire for cello ensembles continues to grow. It is not only about elaborations but also brand new songs because bands are still being formed, and they must have something to play. Where did this come from? If one were to look back in the history of music, an association with viola consorts comes to mind. In the Renaissance and Baroque periods, this was the name given to ensembles of related instruments of different sizes and scales, which evolved into the violins, violas, cellos and double basses we know today so well. However, music for ensembles of violins or violas alone exists today in marginal quantities. At the same time, cello groups are flourishing! In this way, cellists make up for themselves years of existence in the shadow of violinists. Their instrument has an extensive scale, which is very friendly to our ears and similar to the human voice. The sound of the cello has a warm and dark, deep tone. Its singing impresses us. The singing of five, six, or eight cellos is already a real choir, especially when they are NOSPR cellos ... Adam Suprynowicz Concert duration: approximately 90 minutes
