Richard Wagner, The Ride of the Valkyries
Fausto Solci, 8 Variations on La Follia
Transcribing Richard Wagner’s Ride of the Valkyries for two cellos was quite a challenge.The idea came to me while I was performing it in an orchestra. I wondered if such a massive orchestral force could be arranged for just two cellos. I tried to maintain the essence of thepiece, and the enthusiasm I felt both while writing it and performing it in public has led me to believe I succeeded. Before sending it to print, I had the opportunity to perform it publicly several times, and the positive feedback led to this current publication.
In a cello duo concert a few years ago, I was asked to play variations on the theme La Follia. Having found no original piece for this instrumentation, I decided to write them myself. There are clear references to Corelli, Vivaldi, and Paganini, though without any pretense of placing myself on their level. The desire here is not to be philologically accurate, but rather to demonstrate the technical and expressive possibilities of the cello duo.
I hope that those who play these pieces feel the same enthusiasm that my colleagues and I experienced while performing them.
