Roberts Nonextraneous Sounds CD

Mariel Roberts has emerged as one of the most electrifying cellists on the New York scene. Her debut CD, no extraneous sounds, is an audacious statement from a fearless musician. Where others might play it safe, Mariel tests the limits of contemporary cello technique in a group of five exhilarating solo works by young, up and coming NY composers, all commissioned especially for Mariel.
