Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy created a standard work with his final violin concerto in E minor op. 64 MWV O 14 that is now firmly established in today's concert repertoire. When in 1838 the composer indicated that he had in mind a violin concerto [...] in E minor [...], it was not only his friend Ferdinand David, the Gewandhaus concertmaster for whom it was intended, who was euphoric. The whole civilized violin world was awaiting this concerto - and yet it was another seven years before the much-anticipated composition was ultimately published by the Leipzig publishing house Breitkopf & Hartel in June 1845, as well as simultaneously in London and Milan. The concerto particularly appeals through its innovative treatment of the solo part, not only because the solo violin strikingly opens the first movement without a preceding orchestral tutti, but also because of its musical dialogue with the orchestra. The Leipzig Gewandhaus premiere on 13 March 1845 with Ferdinand David as soloist under the direction of Nils Wilhelm Gade served - as so frequently with Mendelssohn - virtually as a proofreading process. After the composer subsequently made extensive changes that also involved David, the work first appeared just short of nine months later. The first edition documents the composer's valid final revision, which is reproduced as the work's main version in the present Urtext edition.The matching piano reduction includes not only an unmarked string part, but also a part with the established markings by Igor Oistrach.

Now the first printed edition of this beautifully sounding psalm setting is available. The five-movement composition is suited both for concert as well as liturgical purposes. Even today this composition of the St. Thomas Cantor and founder of the Leipziger Gewandhaus concert series will not fail to miss its mark. Score and part available separately - see item CA.4094300.

The Tower of Pisa is beyond doubt the most famous and legendary tower in the world. The main motif symbolizes the three bells of the tower. The motif is transformed throughout the piece in which the spectacular effect of a downward motive playedagainst sustained chords, symbolizing the leaning tower, is used. The finale portrays a parade of all bands from around Pisa coming to town to celebrate, accompanied by the bells of the tower!

De Toren van Pisa is zonder twijfel de beroemdste en meest legendarische toren van de wereld. In dit werk symboliseert het hoofdmotief de drie klokken van de toren. Dit hoofdthema wordt gaandeweg getransformeerd, terwijl halverwege de compositieeen spectaculair neerwaarts motief tegenover aangehouden akkoorden staat voor het scheef hellen van de toren. De finale weerspiegelt een optocht van blaasorkesten uit de omgeving, op weg naar Pisa om er feest te vieren, begeleid door hetklokkenmotief!

Der Schiefe Turm von Pisa gehört zweifellos zu den berühmtesten und legendärsten Türmen der Welt. Das Hauptmotiv des Stückes symbolisiert die drei Glocken des Turms. Das Thema mit dem großartigen Effekt eines abwärtsgehenden Motivs, welches denschiefen Turm symbolisiert, im Kontrast zu den gehaltenen Akkorden, kehrt im gesamten Stück in verschiedenen Versionen wieder. Das Finale stellt eine Parade aller Orchester aus der Umgebung von Pisa dar, die zum Feiern in die Stadt kommen und von denGlocken des Turms begleitet werden!

La tour de Pise est sans doute la tour la plus célèbre et légendaire du monde. Le motif principal symbolise les trois cloches de la tour et est transformé tout au long du morceau. En contraste aux accords soutenus, une impression descendante estcréée par un autre motif qui symbolise la tour inclinée. Le final dépeint une parade de tous les orchestres des alentours de Pise qui se rassemblent en ville pour célébrer, accompagnées par les cloches de la tour !

Quella di Pisa è, con ogni probabilit , la più famosa torre al mondo. Il leitmotif del brano di de Haan simbolizza le tre campane della torre, mentre tutta l’opera mantiene un andamento fluttuante capace di rendere pienamente il senso di pendenza della torre. Il finale illustra una grande parata alla quale partecipano tutte le bande dei dintorni della citt , festanti e accompagnate dal suono gioioso delle campane.
