    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byZB3yvozB8
    Instrumentation
    Cello solo
    Estimated date of composition or premiere
    The cello version of Pequena suite brasileira was published in 2017, but I found the
    third movement Dança Negra published alone in 2014.
    Paragraph of biographical info about composer
    Dimitri Cervo is a Brazilian composer born on February 19 of 1968, in Santa Maria.
    He was awarded nationally and internationally over time. He created multifaceted
    works such as Toronubá, The Four Brazilian Seasons and Abertura Brasil
    2012, that have been performed in Brazilian and abroad. As a frequent conductor
    and piano performer of his own works, Cervo has collaborated with various
    ensembles and orchestras.His works have been performed by more than 40
    orchestras in Brazil and abroad, and by percussion groups such as John Boudler e
    Grupo PIAP, Ney Rosauro and Miami Percussion Ensemble, and by cello
    ensembles as BoCoCelli and UDI Cello Ensemble.
    ASTA Level
    3 and 4.

    General stylistic characteristics


    Dança Negra is a contemporary composition in regular notation. The piece
    highlights the virtuosity of the cello as a solo instrument. It requires good bow
    handling as it is all the time in spiccato ligero.

    Personal reflection
    I found this piece very interesting. It could be implemented to study the spiccato
    bow stroke. Also, a variation without the bow for developing virtuosic pizzicato
    technique.
