Description:
CHANT DU MÉNESTREL (SONG OF THE MINSTREL) is a short piece for solo cello and orchestra by Alexander Glazunov (1865-1936). Composed in 1901, it is dedicated to the solo cellist to the Tsar Alexander Wierzbilowicz. A version for cello and piano was also published. Despite its characterization as a salon piece, the work displays an emotional depth that outweighs its brevity. Instrumentation: 2+Picc.2.2.2: 2.0.0.0: Str (9.8.7.6.5 in set): Solo Vc in set.
