12 Caprices for Solo Cello: No. 1 in B minor, Op. 25 No. 1

by Alfredo Piatti

CelloRomanticCaprice~4 minprofessional

The first of Piatti's twelve caprices, the cello equivalent of Paganini's violin caprices. These works are essential study material for advanced cellists, demanding mastery of double stops, thumb position, rapid passage-work, and expressive phrasing. The first caprice in B minor is dramatic and technically comprehensive.
