About the composition
Salbanello is a virtuosic piece for accomplished cellists. A middle voice has been added to the version for four cellos, making the rhythmic structure of the entire piece even more compact than in the original version.
Salbanello for five cellos was written for the premiere project "frisch verfugt" in 2005.
