"Tchaikovsky's Variations on a Rococo Theme for cello and orchestra is another cornerstone of the cellos repertoire. Tchaikovsky demonstrates his skills as a composer by taking the simple line of the theme and spinning it into soaring romantic lines and show-stopping technical feats. The notorious seventh variation is a true test of a cellists musicianship! This particular edition is edited by renowned pedagogue and performer Leonard Rose. While Rose passed away some time ago, his legacy lives on through his pupils like Yo-Yo Ma and Lynn Harrell."
