The ritual

Arianna Pittino

Cello6 min2024Available for world premiere

Technical level 5 of 7extended techniques

I wrote this piece to explore different playing techniques, alternating between thematic motifs and more noise-based sections. It could be interesting if you're looking to explore the instrument's sonic and technical possibilities, as well as the interaction between the voice of the performer and the sound of the instrument.
