Aria (cantilena) by Heitor Villa-Lobos Divisi - Digital Sheet Music

By Heitor Villa-Lobos

Bach’s music was always a source of inspiration for Villa-Lobos, and the series of 9 Bachianas Brasileiras reliably illustrate the influence that the German great composer had on his music. From this series, the Bachianas Brasileiras No. 5 for soprano and eight cellos tops Villa-Lobos’ most popular works list. The original form of the Aria (Cantilena) is AABA. For this arrangement I have produced an ABA version of the work, and have added a second solo soprano in the second section A. I have resisted the temptation to do a mere transcription of the original material, and rather have tried to reflect the almost guitar-like texture that the eight cellos produce; other times I have varied the bass line in such a way that it is more cantabile and less acrobatic.
