Product details
Greening is one of my 'collaborations' with the visionary Hildegard von Bingen (1098-1179), based on two of her original chants: Ave Generosa, and O Viridissima Virga. If I think back to my time studying composition at the Elder Conservatorium (2013-2018), I remember continually wishing that we learned more about historical women (and living women and gender diverse people for that matter). I don't remember when I first heard about Hildegard, but I'm pretty sure it was in my own research on women composers rather than in a class. I hope things have changed since then, because everyone should know that the melodic lines of Hildegard are absolute perfection.
This cello and bassoon duet is based on a double concerto I originally composed for Samantha Webber (clarinet), Daniel Webber (alto sax), and the Adelaide Wind Orchestra - the Hildegard Concerto - in 2017. I am continually inspired by Hildegard and I am so glad that more people seem to know of her name and her music year after year.
Note: I have also arranged this piece in a version for cello and violin, and am very open to arranging it for other combinations of instruments, as it is quite flexible. Please contact me if you are interested in different duo combinations.
