Commissioned by Ross Pople.

First performance: 8 October 2017, The Warehouse, London, Mikhail Nemtsov (cello) and Eleana Nemtsova (piano).

Ross Pople commissioned this work as a birthday gift for me. From a friendship which developed when we travelled the world in Menuhin’s orchestra, Ross has been a constant supporter and commissioner of my music. Sonata for Cello and Piano is a musical portrait of him. The imaginative intensity of his playing was a constant spur to the choices made in the composing process, including some quotations from other works commissioned by him.

Edwin Roxburgh.
