CELLISTS OF DEATH!

Posted by radnofskyl on September 21st, 2006

My own friends and cellists who extend the boundaries of conventional cello playing….

Bang on a Can All-Stars cellist Wendy Sutter…Learn more about wendy at www.wendysutter.com.

Ensemble Intercontemporain cellist Pierre Strauch, who I worked with and became friends with at Lucerne Festival. Pierre is a cellist and composer…check out his Xenakis and Lachenmann recordings and learn more by clicking here.

Radical Dutch cellist Frances-Marie Uitti, the inventor of two-bowed cello! Frances-Marie writes her own compositions for two bows, but her two bows have also been written for by composers such as Kurtag and Scelsi. It’s an amazingly different sound. For more information on Frances visit her website.
