Description
Sonata for Solo Double Bass op. 83bThis three movement piece of 1999 is an extra pressing from Holloways Concerto for Double Bass and Small Orchestra written three years before. The concertos scoring is very spare; its soloist holds the principal line almost continuously; fashioning a solo sonata was more transcription than composition, though there is some new material too. I con moto non allegro, with stealthy undeviating steadiness is a modal journey based upon all the white notes
This three-movement piece of 1999 is an extra pressing from Holloway’s Concerto for Double Bass and Small Orchestra written three years before. The concerto’s scoring is very spare; its soloist holds the principal line almost continuously; fashioning a solo sonata was more transcription than composition, though there is some new material too. I – con moto non allegro, “with stealthy undeviating steadiness” – is a modal journey based upon all the white notes in turn, in the order A, F, D, G, E, C, B (the climax), and back to A. II is a jazzy pizzicato scherzo, marked “tight/precise/footling”, alternating with a fluid lyrical section played col arco.III is more sectional and fantasia-like; a meditative cadenza introduction, a slowish expressive melody, a pizzicato valse-episode, a vigorous allegro work-out, expanding into a slow eloquent ending that ties the finale’s cadenza-opening into the close of the first movement.
