Historical context
Our Ten String Festival features three works by Boccherini, Schubert, and de Falla originally written for cello and piano, but exquisitely represented in the combination with guitar. Piazzolla's famous History of the Tango Cafe 1930 was scored for flute and guitar, but the rendering on the cello gives it a new richness not often heard.
