DESCRIPTION:
Sample tracks from MOTO PERPETUO, available March 26, 2013 on Navona Records.

Here at Navona, we believe that despite varied influences, styles, and techniques, contemporary works by a variety of carefully selected composers can unite to represent the classical landscape as a whole. On MOTO PERPETUO, a collection of moving works for cello by March, Bartholomew, Beeler, Sherrill, Gottschalk, and Ascioti, the music is bound by the instruments' simultaneous steadfastness and adaptability and the composers' shared ability to seize and control the instrument's expressive timbre and range. Featuring ten pieces intimately performed by cellist Ovidiu Marinescu, this album proves the cello's ability to connect the slow and brooding with the meditative and joyous, and beyond.
