Concrete Cello

The "Concrete Cello" pack is a collection of scraping, scratchy and droning improvisations on the cello focussing on the creation of sounds to be used as base materials for future compositions.
They were originally recorded in 2019 to be used in as sound design elements for the documentary "Hotel Regina" by director Matthias Berger for which I composed the music. Part of the impetus of this sampling session was to create cello sounds that would be remiscent of construction machines.

You can listen to the score here :

These are the close-micced mono raw studio recordings.
