The Old Rugged Cross
$5.00
This cello solo begins with a flowing-like accompaniment and is then joined with a somewhat straight forward rendition of the traditional tune in the solo line. As it progresses it becomes more and more embellished. After a brief interlude by the accompaniment the solos continues in a highly embellished manner. While the piece is obviously technical it gives the skilled player an opportunity to display a lot of expression and add to the meaning of the hymn.

I Wonder As I Wander
$4.50This solo is plaintive throughout as it begins with a simple melodic motive. The first verse is simply stated in the solo while supported with broken chords in the piano. The second verse is much like the first but the piano not supports the tune with gentle punctuations. The third verse is in the piano while the solo line produces a ebb and repose obbligato- the two line join together in a dramatic cadence and then settles down to a quite repose where the piano continues in a solemn flavor. The final statement in the solo is much like the first where it is joined with moving scale patterns in the piano. The two players sweep upward one last time to then settle down into solemnity.
