Improvisations by Hayden Chisholm
Sonata for Solo Cello by Kodály is one of the most exciting compositions ever written for cello solo, described as the essence of Hungarian spirit and simply a masterpiece. Yet, even nowadays, it is still not often heard in a live performance. Combined with Hayden Chisholm's meditative improvisations, this special performance of the work creates an intriguing combination of styles, textures, and emotion.
