Cello Concerto in E Major (Cassado-Tchaikovsky)
- Cello Concerto in E Major (Cassado-Tchaikovsky)
The Cello Concerto in E major was not written by Tchaikovsky. It was created by the cellist Gaspar Cassadó, who took about nine of Tchaikovsky's piano pieces (from "Piano Pieces, Op.72"), and orchestrated them as, collectively, a concerto.
The pieces Cassadó used were: "Scene dansante (Invitation au trepak)", "Tendres Reproches", and "Chant Elegiaque" in the first movement; "Meditation" and "Dialogue" in the second; and "Danse Caracteristique", "Berceuse", "Passe Lointain", and "Impromptu" in the third.
This concerto was a favorite of Cassadó's, but he never recorded it. No other recording of the work exists.
