Said Carter Callison:
"My work on Cello Sonata No. 1: Allusions began in the spring of 2012 when I began collaborating with Duo Isold. My initial intention was to develop a work that imitated the counterpoint of the great baroque masters but stylized with my own harmonic language.
The first movement begins with a hazy texture from the octatonic lines and the significant use of piano pedal. The second movement stands in contrast with its poly-modal melodies that build to an extremely dense climax. The third movement is the most contemplative movement of the piece and seems to embody a variety of emotions from somber to joyous.
The final movement juxtaposes the third with its brisk tempo and chromatic arpeggios throughout. I decided to name the piece Allusions because at times the music seems to allude to composers of the past while never fully revealing its historical context."
Guðný Jónasdóttir studied the cello with Gunnar Kvaran at the Reykjavík College of Music and the Iceland Academy of the Arts.

Currently she is studying at the Royal Academy of Music in London with Josephine Knight. Besides her studies, she has participated in several international master-classes.
Guðný is a very engaged musician who, in recent years, has looked into all aspects of being a professional cellist. She has performed as a soloist with the Iceland Symphony Orchestra and the Icelandic Youth Orchestra. She has freelanced with the Iceland Symphony Orchestra and had an internship with the Lübecker Philharmoniker. She is a member of the Taschenoper Lübeck, a chamber group that performs major operas for children.

Carter Callison enjoys an active life as a composer and freelance double bassist. He began his bass studies at the age of 16 with the Grammy Award winning bassist Eliot Wadopian. A year later, Carter went on to the North Carolina School for the Arts (UNCSA) and received his high school diploma in 2005. While there, he studied bass with Lynn Peters and Counterpoint with Dr. Lawrence Dillion. Following graduation, Carter attended the Manhattan School of Music where he was the first student to double major in both composition and double bass. His teachers included Dr. Reiko Füting, Dr. Robert Sirota and Linda McKnight. In 2007, Carter was selected for an exchange program at the Royal College of Music in London. While there he studied bass with Mini Bass founder Caroline Emery and composition with Michael Zev Gordon. Being aware of his innate teaching abilities, the Royal College faculty appointed Carter Teacher Deputy in the Royal College Junior Department. As an avid orchestral and solo bassist, Carter has participated in many International Music festivals such as Domaine Forget, the International Festival Institute in Round Top Texas, the Brevard Music Festival and Winter Bass Club 2007 in Norfolk, UK. As a participant at these festivals and through school events, Carter has performed in master classes with world renowned musicians such as Francois Rabbath, Paul Ellison, Jeremy McCoy, Ali Yazdandfar, Etienne Lafrance, James VanDermark and Barry Lieberman. Aside from his busy performing schedule, Carter still manages to compose varied chamber and orchestral works that have been performed internationally by ensembles such as the BBC Singers, Spitalfields Winter Festival, and Duo Kadans among others. In September 2011, Carter returned to London to pursue a Master's of Music Degree and PhD in Composition at the Royal Academy of Music. His principle teacher is Christopher Austin.
