The ’Cello Concertino by Peter Thompson was written at the beginning of 2000, the short score being completed in February and the full score in April of 2001. The work is in three linked movements and the Concertino runs continuously. The second movement references music Thompson wrote at Cambridge Arts College in the early 1970s, specifically the Two Sonnets for Small Orchestra, which were prefaced by words of James Joyce: “Welladay! Welladay! For the winds of May! Love is unhappy when love is away.”
