What are the hardest cello pieces to play?

What are the hardest cello pieces to play? I have played, FLIGHT OF THE BUMBLE-BEE it is mainly 16th notes at beat 144 for the quarter note.

I`ve been playing the cello since I was in the 6th grade and now i am 20. You can find the notes on your own. fingers shifting on all strings; open 1,3,4/1,3,4/1,2,3/1,2,3 and on until you go of the finger bord

NORMAL SHIFTING

0 1 3 4 13 4 12312312312312

A string-- a b c sharp, d shift, e f g sharp abcdefgabcdefgabc

D string- d e f sharp, g shift, a b c sharp
G string- g a b sharp, c shift, d e f sharp
C string- c d e sharp, f shift, g a b sharp

(as the notes and shifting gets higher fingers get closer togeather)

haha...i was wondering

I know

someone please delete this!

If you want a really hard piece to play try one of Bach`s Six Suites for Unaccopmpanied Cello. For example, the Praeludium from suite no.6, personally I think that it is one of the hardest pieces I have ever seen. It goes into tenor clef, thumb position, shifting up and down all strings, you name it. Pieces like these are the hardest to play, at least I think so.

Just try to play the Haydn`s concerto in C major for cello, it is very difficult, the prelude from the Bach`s 6th suite for cello it`s easier, trust me, this concerto is 20 times more difficult than Bach!

well actually the hardest piece for the cello and any instrument is Paganinis 24th caprice.

Have you actually seen the music for it and do you have the music of it? I`ve heard it but never have seen the music for it, I only have the violin sheet music version of that.
