I am very happy to announce, that one of the leading Slovenian composers Črt Sojar Voglar has written wonderful little concert pieces for young cellists, entitled “Songs for my Cello”.
As a cello teacher I can say, that there has always been a lack of these kind of compositions and this contribution will certainly be a significant one.
Compositions come with live recordings and short preparatory exercises, so the young cellist can develop proper hearing perception and master the technical difficulties.
The Pieces were originally written for his daughter Eva, who is currently an aspiring young cellist herself.
Interesting Song Titles
Originally, the pieces were titled “Song for Eva no.1 etc.”, and after the authors consent, I added a bit more imaginative titles, so the young cellists could use their imagination and relate to the pieces on a more personal level.
- Song No.13 – Polka dots mantis
- Song No.12 – Harlequin
- Song No.11 – A Walk in the Park
- Song No.10 – Elephant Dance
- Song No.9 – Aunt on a visit
- Song No.8 – By the Pond
- Song No.7 – Garden Elves
- Song No.6 – Magician
- Song No.5 – Falling Leaves
- Song No.4 – Family Holidays
- Song No.3 – Morning Sun
- Song No.2 – Bicycle Trip
- Song No.1 – The Magic Closet
