Judith Bailey
AQUAMARINE WALTZ for cello and piano
Goodmusic GM138
This work was commissioned by Isabel Young in May 1999 and written in June of that year. She had commissioned a piece for 'cello and piano for her 75th birthday.
The composer's first thoughts were to relate the title to her Cornish home, but she did not feel "The Haven" to be an appropriate name for a piece! However, because of its happy associations and spectacular sea view, the word "aquamarine" seemed an apt description of what turned into a light-hearted waltz.
Duration 5 minutes
A CD recording of this work is available on Metier Records (Divine Art) MSVCD92101 which contains a collection of instrumental music by Judith Bailey played by the Davey Chamber Ensemble.
