Georg Goltermann : Concerto No. 1 in A minor, Op. 14

Cello and Piano – Romantic Period

Description:

This edition, published by the International Music Company (IMC1438), presents Georg Goltermann’s Concerto No. 1 in A minor, Op. 14. As one of Goltermann’s most celebrated works, this concerto is a staple in the cello repertoire and is widely performed by cellists worldwide.

The work is a three-movement concerto composed in 1852. The first and third movements, both marked Allegro moderato, showcase the cello's rich tone and technical dexterity, while the second movement, "Cantilena: Andante," is particularly beloved for its lyrical and beautiful melody.

Performance Tips:

This concerto, edited by the legendary cellist and pedagogue Leonard Rose, is known for its elegant and melodic writing. Performers should focus on producing a warm, singing tone, especially in the lyrical second movement. While technically demanding, the passages are well-structured to showcase the cello's capabilities. Pay close attention to the dynamic contrasts between the vibrant, energetic outer movements and the tender, expressive inner movement. A strong partnership with the pianist is key to a balanced and cohesive performance.

About the Composer:

Georg Goltermann (1824–1898) was a German cellist and composer of the Romantic period. A student of the great cellist Josef Menter and composer Ignaz Moscheles, he held prominent positions as a cellist and conductor, most notably as music director in Frankfurt. His compositions, especially his cello concertos and pedagogical works, are highly regarded for their melodic beauty and idiomatic writing for the instrument.

About the Editor:

Leonard Rose (1918–1984) was an American cellist and one of the most influential pedagogues of his time. He was a student of Felix Salmond at the Curtis Institute of Music and went on to hold principal cellist positions with the NBC Symphony and New York Philharmonic. Rose taught at the Juilliard School for most of his life, where he mentored generations of prominent cellists, including Yo-Yo Ma. His edited editions of various cello works are highly valued for their clarity and musical insight.
