Misc. Notes From the archives of cellist student Paul Coutan who studied the piece with his teacher Paul Bazelaire. The latter would have taken the lead on the principal cello with, on the accompanying cello, his student, whose part bears instructions in pencil such as : "préparer le sol dès le début" and other simplifications in the score.
