Allegro from the Cello Sonata [Alf:81-SQ224116]

This arrangement by David Marlatt is a movement from the Cello Sonata in G by Bendetto Marcello. It has been set for an alto solo with the remainder of the quartet in a supporting role. Flashy sounding scales (in an easy key) make this solo sound harder than it is. Allegro from the Cello Sonata is a perfect feature for the soprano in the group while essentially giving the remainder of the ensemble a break with very light playing and lots of rest. (2:30)
