Digital Download: Jewellery Box for 'cello and harp
Jewellery Box is an 8 minute composition for advanced pedal harp and ‘cello. Featuring four movements: Ruby, Moonstone, Sapphire and Diamond, Jewellery Box is an intriging original composition designed to draw audiences into the rich sonorities of the harp and ‘cello.
Ruby is bold and dramatic, very much a dialogue between the two instruments.
Moonstone is gentle, calm and with a certain Scottish flavour to the music.
Sapphire is mysterious and intense, again using the two instruments in dialogue.
Diamond is fast-paced, full of energy and iridescent sparkle, providing a rousing finish to this varied work.
N.B The second movement, Moonstone is also available for pedal harp and oboe.
