Three Pieces for Violin Solo

Par HOLLIGER HEINZ. Here's proof, if you ever needed it, that contemporary music can be humourous. Want to hear Mendelssohn's Wedding March beefed up with Wagner's Tristan? And enjoy listening out for the well-known melody of 'Tea for two' in the escapades of 'Three for two'? The entertaining collection were composed individually, and for a variety of purpose - some were congratulatory messages for well-known fellow musicians such as Elliott Carter or Thomas Demenga, but some were just composed while waiting at a bus stop! Hence, the pieces can be played either as effective encore pieces./ Répertoire / Violon et Violoncelle

Fantasia for Violin and Piano-Born in Erfurt the composer Edward Mollenhauer (1827 1914) achieved success in America as a soloist and teacher. His best-known pieces for young violinists are The Infant Paganini and The Boy Paganini.The Mollenhauer fantasia The Infant Paganini is a charming introduction to early virtuoso techniques. It calls for bowing techniques such as detaché legato spiccato and arpeggios over three strings. Players are also expected to play harmonics and pizzicato.This showpiece (BA 10691) can be accomplished by young violinists who can play in first to third position and who are nearing completion of theSassmannshaus Early Start on the Violin volume 4.The Boy Paganini is an impressive concert piece which is more demanding. Its two movements call for changes of metre harmonics and pizzicato. Other challenges include chords on all four strings and simple passages in octaves.On the Violin (BA 10692) the technical requirements call for first to fifth position. Violinists should have completed volume 4 of Early Start on the Violin in order to master this work.- Popular recital pieces for young violinists and cellists.- Both works form an ideal continuation of the Sassmannshaus Early Start methods.

Arranged For Mandolin. This book contains the first three of J. S. Bach's solo violin Sonatas and Partitas arranged for mandolin. The goal of the material is to make learning these challenging pieces easier. Mandolin tablature is included throughout the book. Mandolinists who have little or no experience reading standard notation will find this to be an essential learning tool. For good reason, there has been widespread interest in learning these pieces in the mandolin community. The pieces were originally written for violin. As a result, Bach's use of string crossing patterns and open-string pedals work brilliantly on the mandolin. Also, as solo works they are a useful addition to anyone's performingrepertoire. Lastly, even if never performed, learning all or some of these is wonderful for building mandolin technique. Violinists often say that if you can play the Bach Solo Sonatas and Partitas you can play anything-the same is certainly true for mandolinists. This book contains the first three of J. S.

Three characterful lyrical and enjoyable solos written in the salon style of the late 19th-century and allowing the solo double bass to sing throughout the range of the instrument. Tulacek studied composition with Dvorak and his music echoes the Czech nationalist style always melodic tuneful and graceful. Newly typeset in 2009 this edition also includes piano accompaniments for both solo and orchestral tunings. 'This music displays the old-fashioned sentimental romanticism typical of the salon music of the early 20th-century. All three deliciously lyrical pieces are in simple ABA song form.' (ISB) Grade 8 - Trinity-Guildhall /ABRSM Rudolf Tulacek was one of the leading Czech double bassists of his generation and was a respected and influential teacher at the Janacek Academy of Music in Brno. He was born in Jicin Bohemia on 25 August 1885 and began to study the double bass at the age of eleven having already studied flute and violin. So rapid was his progress that he soon became a member of the Jicin Municipal Orchestra and in 1901 entered the Prague Academy of Music to study with Frantisek Cerny one of the Czech capital's leading bassists and teachers. Tulacek graduated in 1907 with the highest commendations from his professors performing the Geissel Concerto at his public graduation concert and in 1909 was offered the post of Solo Bassist in the Zagreb Opera Orchestra. From 1920 he was also a Professor at the Zagreb State Academy of Music and subsequently became Concert-Master of the Zagreb Philharmonic. His many recitals attest to his perfect technique supreme musicality and complete command of the instrument and concerts included music by Cerny Dvorak Geissel Kukla Láska Misek Simandl Stein and Tenaglia alongside his own compositions. In 1937 Tulacek became Professor of Double Bass at the Brno Academy of Music and in 1948 became the first Double Bass Professor at the newly founded

Arrangement for Piano-Aside from the Violin Chaconne (HN 557) and the ten Chorale Preludes for Organ (HN 1293) the Prelude and Fugue in D major ranks among the best-known Piano transcriptions Busoni fashioned from J. S. Bach?s works. Considerable evidence suggests that he viewed these three pieces as paradigmatic examples of his transcription technique. Busoni?s explicit labelling of the Prelude and Fugue ?for concert performance? in the title already serves as an indication of the heightened virtuosic requirements. And indeed here Busoni demands that the pianist have perfectly mastered the keyboard always with the aim of delegating to the Piano effectively but still in the spirit of Bach the mighty sound-world of the Organ work. This Urtext edition is heartily recommended to all those pianists who have ever wanted finally to pull out all the stops on the Piano.

Works for two Pianos-Whose ears are not instantly filled with the dreamy flute solo when Debussy?s 'Prélude l?après-midi d?un faune' is mentioned? Very few people know that before he wrote the orchestral score Debussy made a version for two pianos.Both versions should be seen as being independent and they differ in some details. The differences are revealed in our edition as are Debussy?s entries concerning the work in his copy of the score. The volume also contains theSpanish impression 'Lindaraja' and the three pieces 'En blanc et noir' in which Debussy addresses the horrors of World War I. Andreas Groethuysen one half of the famous piano duo Tal & Groethuysen provided the fingerings.
