New cello music
The Cello Biennale gives a boost to the production of new cello repertoire every two years, including solo cello, cello ensembles, and cello with orchestra. Since the first Cello Biennale in 2006, a large collection of repertoire has been built of commissioned works by both young and renowned composers from within and outside the Netherlands.
