I Own a Rocking Horse This suite was designed
to introduce the student to the various and aurally interesting modalities
of music. Throughout the suite the aspiring 'cello student will encounter
both new time signatures and extended techniques. Each of the seven pieces
is in a different mode - Locrian, Mixolydian, Aeolian, Ionian, Phrygian,
Lydian and Dorian - and together they present the student with the seven
diatonic modes.
