Gardens of Stone (cello)

By Amanda Handel

Regular price $25.00 Sale

Cello and piano, c.10'00.  Advanced to professional grade

The Gardens of Stone National Park is in the Blue Mountains World Heritage area (NSW).  This toccata-like piece is written in recognition of the threat to this pristine environment by the encroachment of coal mining enterprises on its borders, gradually degrading the rock formations. 

Originally composed for piano and didjeridu this version for piano and cello was created in 2021. Other versions of the piece include bass clarinet, and  string orchestra. An arrangement for full symphony orchestra has been made by Dr. Steven Stanke for performance by Symphony Central Coast (NSW) in 2022.

Composed 2009
