In Greek mythology, the Furies were terrifying creatures responsible for taking the dead to the dark corners of the Underworld. Their frightening presence was felt in the legend of Orpheus as well. The piece of music that August Nolck composed was initially intended for the cello, and it is an excellent choice for string players who want to improve their timing precision. The work is a perpetual motion in quavers, which promotes refined right-hand movements and helps players develop their technical skills. Its rondo form also provides a platform for each instrument to shine in a solo performance.
