Suite cello solo - Gaspar Cassado
Manuel Santapau, cello
Performed: November 27, 2024
Conservatori Porfessional de Cullera, Valencia
Cassado may have been influenced by the Bach Cello Suites when composing the solo suite in 1926. Cassado's teacher was Pablo Casals, credited for rediscovering the Bach cello suites in the early 20th century. Cassado is Barcelonian, and his family moved to Paris when he was 10 where he started his studies with Casals. Many of Cassado's compositions draw from elements of Spanish folk music and French nationalism. Cassado's Catalonian background contributed to the Catlan Cello School and is evident of the virtuoso movement of the 19th century.
There may be connections between the Bach Cello Suites and the Cassado Solo Suite.[3] The three dance movements reflect elements present in the Baroque dance movements, such as adding embellisments as a common practice in baroque performance.
Movements
I. Preludio-Fantasia
II. Sardana (Danza)
III. Intermezzo e Danza Finale
