The works of George Gershwin, master of jazz and composition, have undergone countless arrangements, reflections, and variations. Building of his work with The Man I Love, Valter Dešpalj adds his own personal touch with two more Gershwin favorites: Prelude No. 2 and Summertime.
Ensembles
Richard Birchall and Cellophony have produced some exciting arrangements for cello ensemble, many of which have been recorded on their acclaimed album Vibrez. Ovation Press is proud to release another arrangement from the album, Wagner's Prelude from Tristan & Isolde.
Based off of the duet from Mozart's 1787 opera Don Giovanni, Dotzauer's arrangement of Variations on "Là ci darem la mano" have been expertly edited by Valter Dešpalj for two celli.
Valter Dešpalj has arranged Enrique Granados' Intermezzo from the opera Goyescas for cello and guitar. Its Spanish character is enhanced by the variety of tone colors and sound effects they can produce.
The multi-talented Stephen Watkins delivers his first original composition in our catalog with Unheard Serenade for cello octet, inspired by the second verse of the poem "Let Me Enjoy" by Thomas Hardy.
Valter Dešpalj has been very interested in exploring how guitar accompaniment can help to emphasize a character of intimacy in music, helping him discover more refined nuances on the cello. Thanks to him, our catalog of cello and guitar is growing, with Mendelssohn's Song without Words, Op. 109 joining as the newest arrangement.
