Ten Cello Etudes from the 4th Dimension by Aaron Minsky. Sheet music and downloads available here: https://www.jwpepper.com/Ten-Cello-Et... Cello Etudes from the 4th dimension? They are cello pieces in which you play the same pattern on all four strings! It is a unique way to organize sound untethered from the standard scales, creating new challenges and opportunities. In fact, it creates sounds never heard before! It also creates unusual patterns that can prove useful for technique building and improvisation. Plus the very notion of cello etudes from another dimension is fun! Welcome to the 4th dimension. Find out about Aaron Minsky at http://www.voncello.com.

This etude is inspired by Vaughan Williams' "The Lark Ascending", however where Minsky lives there are hawks. Hawks love to flap a little and then glide. This is reflected in the music. Technically it uses the same pattern on all 4 strings which brings it into the 4th dimension. It also uses harmonics at the highest register (above the fingerboard) to portray the hawk as it drifts away into the heavens.
