Soliloquy Sonata for Solo Cello (2022)   18 minutes duration

As 2022 winds down, I'd like to present one of my last works of 2022, this piece for solo cello was beautifully performed and recorded recently by Laszlo Mezo, a cellist with a local symphony who did a wonderful job and was an absolute joy to work with! 

The title refers to the inner dialog a character has revealing the inner turmoil and conflicts that the character is experiencing and provides insight into their motivations and thoughts.  Though I had a specific narrative in mind that guided the music structurally, I leave it to the listener to imagine their own internal dialog.  I would be curious to know what you think the inner dialog is should you wish to share it.

I hope you enjoy it.

Very nice - a great way to start Christmas. Keep up the good work.
