Arrangements

Francis Poulenc – Cavatina from Cello Sonata – Michael Peacock Solo Piano Arrangement

A solo arrangement of the in turns sweet, majestic, malevolent, uplifting Cavatina from Poulenc’s Sonata Pour Violincelle, completed in 1948. The arrangement is designed to sound true to the original, just re-organising the parts so the cello can sing through properly.
