Repertoire Type: The Sphinx Catalog of Latin American Cello Works
The Sphinx Catalog of Latin American Cello Works is a brand-new comprehensive database, the most extensive source of its kind with more than 2000 entries to date. The featured repertoire focuses on music of Latin America that prominently features the cello: this includes solo repertoire, works with cello soloist and orchestra, duo repertoire with another instrument or electronic media, as well as cello ensemble.
The information contained in the catalog is displayed using the criteria of composers’ name, gender, country of origin, and date of birth, as well as the works’ title, date of composition, duration, instrumentation, and editions. Further information about composers and their works can be found by clicking on the composer’s name (in progress). Although the catalog does not grant specific information about purchasing scores, it facilitates the search of scores, recordings, and other sources by compiling all of this information into one comprehensive resource. When using the database, please be sure to include any non-English symbols in your search (such as í, á, ã, ñ, etc). Also note that the information does not reflect any strict order as it is being continuously updated. We therefore encourage users to carefully review search results until the very end of the list.
CelloBello is delighted to share this catalog, prepared with the generous help of collaborators from all around the world, and using multiple bibliographical sources. If you have relevant information that you want to convey, please email sphinxcellocatalog@gmail.com.
