Description

Purchase includes full orchestral score and solo cello part. All orchestral parts are available upon request.

August Suck (ca. 1830-1921) pronounced “Sook”, came to the U.S. in the 1850s. With cellist Wulf Fries, he published a cello tutor in 1879, reissued in 1901. In 1881 he became a founding member of the Boston Symphony.  See Music by August Suck for a fuller biography of the composer/cellist.

The score for the Introduction, Theme with Variations and Rondo score is both undated and lacking a title. It is a brief but brilliant and virtuosic work, the theme with two variations before transitioning into the Rondo. Orchestration is flute, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets in A, 2 bassoons, 2 horns in F, 2 trumpets in A (B-flat parts included), 3 trombones, timpani and strings.
