Rautavaara made early sketches for his Cello Sonata in 1974, but did not complete it until 1991. The opening movement is a dramatic dialogue between the two instruments, created around symmetrical melodic and harmonic figures. The second movement opens with a cello solo in which a twelve-note row is subjected to abundant note-repetitions. The finale starts from peaceful beginnings, gathers tempo but recedes into the original shades of the opening dialogue.

It pains me to do this. Its an incredible piece and the cello part is perfectly fine. But I literally cannot ask a pianist to perform this with me considering the score is a scan of a handwritten copy. Its neat and Im assuming in the composers hand- which makes it a nice thing to look at or refer to- but seeing as it did not include an actual printed copy, this is effectively worthless for performance.
