FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Dec. 2003: Chanukah

On the heels of his acceptance into the International Who’s Who, Von Cello has just received more good news. Oxford Univerisity Press has just released his Judaic Concert Suite! Under his given name, Aaron Minsky, this is his seventh title and thirteenth book published by Oxford. (Some titles were pubished in multi book form for several instruments.)

With his previous releases, Aaron has become known around the world as the creator of a new popular style of cello playing. The following was recently written by David Johnstone, a British concert cellist, living in Spain, who regularly performs and records Minsky’s music:

“There are a number of works for the cello which, although not apparent in their time, have changed the course of cello writing or at the least have had a telling influence on the next generation of cello literature. We all know about the Bach Six Suites, a great and singular work of about 1720...the concerto of Dvorak in the 1890's...the Kodaly Solo Sonata of 1915...and too it's worth mentioning the Prokofiev Sinfonia Concertante which came to its finished state in the post World War II days. And now we come to AARON MINSKY. Maybe at the moment less known than his renowned predecessors, I predict that his work for cello may well assume a similar importance.“

With the release of Judaic Concert Suite, Aaron has expanded his composing beyond the trends of modern popular music, expressing ideas of an eternal nature. In fact, this music expresses in sound, traditional Jewish beliefs about the unification of man and God, and is a call to all people to open their minds to higher thoughts. The written notes that are included with the music go into this in detail. Minsky has also written an article describing the long and winding spiritual road that led to the writing and publishing of this music. You can read that article here:

This publication is just the latest example of how Von Cello is blazing a new path in the history of rock music. How many rock stars have written music dealing with spiritual concepts? How many have expressed those ideas in sound, without lyrics? And how many have written music that is acceptable for publication by a leading classical music publisher? Von Cello is unique. As he has broken the musical barrier between classical music and rock, he has now broken the spiritual barrier: a barrier that has often kept Jewish spirituality out of both classical and rock music.

Von Cello is making history! And time is on his side. In the words of David Johnstone: “ I...predict a growing importance for his music in the historical perspective”. Stay tuned!
