Description
Orientale, by the Russian composer and music critic César Cui (1835-1918), comes from the cycle Kaleidoscope, a collection of 24 miniatures for violin and piano. The piece was arranged for numerous instrumentations, with the arrangement for cello being among the most popular. The miniature exudes melodic andrhythmic charm and is a popular encore, not least due to its shortness.
Estelle Revaz, an experienced concert cellist and teacher, edited the work, adding tips for modern cello lessons which make the first steps into cello playing easier and provide suggestions for the student's own interpretation.
