Scored for Solo Cello, Viola & Cello (or Double Bass).
This effective and accessible three movement work offers much for the good intermediate trio. A separate double bass part is included, opening up the possibilities of performance, and although much of the melodic material is given to the solo cello, the viola and 2nd cello/double bass provide a suitable accompaniment to create a work of energy and style.
Although more influential as a cellist than as a composer, Romberg's music is full of charm and elegance and successfully combined the style of the late 18th-century with the stirrings of early romanticism. There are few technical challenges with much scope for great music making, and for a rare combination of instruments.
