Two Cadenzas from Cello Concerto C-dur by Joseph Haydn, Arvo Pärt. Cello

Arvo Pärt

2 Kadenzen zum Violoncellokonzert C-Dur von Joseph Haydn (Hob. VIIb:1), for violoncello

Description

In early 1979, Arvo Pärt attended a performance of his cello concerto Pro et Contra in Almaty. The soloist was Ivan Monighetti with the Kazakh State Symphony Orchestra conducted by Tolepbergen Abdrashev. The programme also included Joseph Haydns Cello Concerto No 1 in C major. During rehearsals, Monighetti happened to ask Arvo Pärt if he might compose the cadenzas for the Haydn Concerto. After a few moments to consider the request, the composer jotted down some musical ideas whilst there in the concert hall. These were premiered in public on February the 20th, 1979.

The manuscript was re-discovered during work in the archives at the Arvo Pärt Centre in 2023.
