Antonin Tucapsky
MEDITATION for cello solo
Roberton 95539
The Meditation is remotely based on an old Czech chorale. This chorale is a prayer to the national patron saint, Wenceslas. This ancient hymn has no connection with the well-known English carol "Good King Wenceslas". My Meditation uses only fragments of the old chorale and unfolds them in a varied way, displaying various instrumental effects. Antonin Tucapsky
