I heard Stephen perform this with his trio "Volatinsky" a few weeks ago and fell in love with the piece. I bought the arrangement for string quartet but I don't have a mandocello so I ended up transposing the cello part up a fifth, playing it on the mandola (GDAE) and then pitch shifting it down in post. The viola part only needed some minor changes to fit on the mandolin. The first and second mandolin parts have some pretty intense cross picking passages which are almost like tongue twisters for your fingers.

Has an air of Piazzolla about it. Enjoyed that!
