Following the birth of her first child, violinist Rachel Barton Pine went looking for a collection of lullabies written for violin and piano. After finding nothing in existence, she set about gathering sheet music and recording her own versions with pianist Matthew Hagle. This new collection celebrates the beauty of new life and parenthood with familiar tunes and new discoveries by composers such as Brahms, Ravel, Fauré, and Gershwin. Meticulously edited, these are short and elegant while remaining compositionally sophisticated, perfect for intermediate or advanced violinists. As an additional resource, the collection contains downloadable piano accompaniments and tracks performed by Matthew Hagle. / Violon Et Piano

This unique collection with 42 of the most beautiful German lullabies and cradle songs reflects the richness of our musical culture: from folk songs to simple art songs, with music, texts and guitar chords, set in vocal ranges suitable for children. The singalong CD includes recordings of the songs with piano and violin, ideal for anyone who wants to sing the songs with their children. Frank Walka has illustrated the book with imagination and creativity, perfectly matching the content of the songs. His large-format illustrations are like the songs themselves - sometimes dreamy, sometimes funny, sometimes serious, sometimes realistic. And so the book is a stunning picture book at the same time.
