The superb cellist Miranda Wilson contrasts the three suites by Bloch with two new works by Daniel Bukvich.
A native of New Zealand, cellist Miranda Wilson has performed on five continents as a soloist and chamber musician.
Educated in New Zealand, England and the U.S., she is on the faculty of the University of Idaho and is artistic co-director of the Idaho Bach Festival.
Wilson has chosen to combine Ernest Bloch’s three suites for solo cello with two new works by Daniel Bukvich.
One of the connecting features between these two composers is their association with the Pacific Northwest.
Bloch spent his last years in Oregon, while Bukvich has spent his career on the faculty at the University of Idaho.
Bukvich studied Bloch’s manuscripts as a student and names Bloch as one of his influences.
