Wendy Sutter, David Cossin, Philip Glass - Glass: Songs And Poems For Solo Cello (2008) / AvaxHome

Two world premiere recordings of pieces for cello by Philip Glass are paired on this debut solo recording by the American Wendy Sutter. The first, Songs and Poems for solo cello, composed for her last year, emphasises the singing quality of the instrument (here she plays on the renowned “ex Vatican Stradivarius”) while Tissues, written originally for Godfrey Reggio’s celebrated film Naqoyqatsi but not used in the final cut, also features percussionist David Cossin and Glass himself on piano.

Composer: Philip Glass
Performer: Wendy Sutter, David Cossin, Philip Glass

Reviews: Songs and Poems for Solo Cello represents the solo recording debut of cellist Wendy Sutter featuring two world premieres. Premiered in 2007, Songs and Poems for Solo Cello is a seven-movement work by American composer Philip Glass. Known for large-scale theater works, film scores, concertos and symphonies, Songs and Poems for Solo Cello shows the composer at his most intimate. Also featured on the disc, Tissues, composed for the film Naqoyqatsi, are works written for cello, percussion and piano.

'…the solo debut disc of cellist Wendy Sutter in the gorgeous and far-from-familiar solo cello music of Philip Glass, including the newly composed title piece on the disc. It's a brilliant disc.' – The Buffalo News

'Wendy Sutter's disc is exceptional. … these solo cello pieces are downright impassioned, aided by performances that have the dramatic specificity of a great rhetorical monologue.' – David Patrick Stearns, The Philadelphia Inquirer
