Uriel for violoncello and piano

“Uriel” is the third part of Matthias Pintscher's cycle “Profiles of Light”. As the title suggests: The Archangel Uriel plays his part in Judaism as well as in Christianity. On the one hand he is a symbol of the light and the glory of God, and on the other hand he symbolises the illumination of the soul, the spirit and the intellect. The strong expressive lines of this meditative calm flowing duet portray a moving dreamlike Uriel on a screen of stillness.
