Description:
Eostre is about the joy of being a woman in the spring; that feeling of walking in the sunshine with a slight breeze teasing the hem of my skirt. But it is also the raw, wild femininity of spring: Mother Nature in her fundamental, unexpurgated, paradoxical, bud-spurting, blood-guzzling guise.
The piece is not so much written for two cellos, as for one big and gorgeous instrument consisting of two cellos and two cellists.
Wilma Pistorius
