Beschreibung:
A beautifully lyrical and dramatic one-movement work for string orchestra or sextet (2 Vln, Vla, 2 Vc, Db).
Giovanni Bottesini's background in Italian opera is echoed in every bar of this exquisite work, demonstrating his abilities as a wonderful melodist and extremely talented composer. The piece is dedicated to Giulio Ricordi, Bottesini's publisher in Rome.
Giovanni Bottesini (1821-1889) was the greatest double bass soloist of the 19th-century and was also a prolific composer. His works for double bass are at the heart of the solo bass repertoire into the 21st-century but his non-bass music is less well known. Andante Sostenuto is the work to change this.
