With his 'Concerto classico' composed in 1999, Bertold Hummel enables violin pupils with only limited technical skills to play an entire little violin concerto. The second movement, Elegy, is now also available as a separate edition for viola and piano. The melody of the Finnish folk song forming the thematic foundation of the movement is melancholy and gentle: a short simple theme which is introduced and then varied several times. To master this piece, it is sufficient for the violist to command the first position, and the piano part is easy to play as well. An ideal piece for pupils, competitions and for music-making at home.

Elegie, Op. 44 was composed in 1893 originally for Viola and Piano. It is thought to be a memorial for either Anton Rubinstein and/or Tchaikovsky, both of whom died the year before.
The 6-minute work very nicely arranged by Dr. Cory Mixdorf is an Allegretto in 9/8 meter, poignantly lyrical, of somber mood and appropriate for advanced performers.

In seinen spaten Zwanzigern entdeckte Atar Arad seine Liebe fur die Viola und entschied, sich diesem Instrument zu widmen. Zoltan Kodalys Bearbeitung der Fantasia Cromatica (BWV 903) war ein wichtiger Bestandteil in seiner Entwicklung. Die Viola, eine Meisterin der Melancholie, Wehmut, Elegie und Dunkelheit, sollte auch in der Lage sein zu schillern und zu reizen. Vorliegende Bearbeitung der Fantasia Cromatica mochte so nah wie moglich an Bachs Original zu bleiben. Sie ist eine wahre Bereicherung fur das Solorepertoire der Viola im gehobenden Schwierigkeitsgrad.
