The considerable and important musical production by Nicolò Paganini for violin and guitar is now increased to a small but significant degree with the publication of the Sei piccoli Valtz (the title is not the composer’s). They are brief but very pleasing pieces, in which it is easy to perceive the spirit with which the great Genoese musician wrote his short compositions.These are autograph compositions, where the instrumental indication (violin) is present only at the sixth. They could be considered almost ‘musical jottings’ found in two manuscript collections of music for guitar, the Ghiribizzi and the 37 Sonate, but which have never been transcribed and completed before now. Their musical structure is simple, as is found in this kind of composition, and is organised mostly in bipartite form, except for the Valtz n. 6 which it is tripartite (with the Minore and the Da Capo al Fine).It is most likely to be the violin part of compositions for violin and guitar, given the musical characteristics of the six pieces, similar to other music by Paganini such as the Sei Cantabili e Valtz dedicated to Camillo Sivori. It must not then be ruled out, given the numbering allocated by the composer to the first five Valtz, that they might even be the evidence of a ‘project’ which was perhaps never completed, or else finished and lost, of which in fact only these few pages remain.

Contemporary Harmony: Romanticism Through the Twelve-Tone Row is by Ludmila Ulehla. The understanding of the musical techniques of composition cannot be reduced to a handbook of simplified rules. Music is complex and ever changing. It is the purpose of this book to trace the path of musical growth from the late Romantic period to the serial techniques of the contemporary composer. Through the detailed analysis of the musical characteristics that dominate a specific style of writing, a graduated plan is organized and presented here in the form of explanations and exercises. A new analytical method substitutes for the diatonic figured bass and makes exercises and the analysis of non-diatonic literature more manageable. The explanations describing each technique are thorough. They are designed to help the teacher and the student see the many extenuating circumstances that affect a particular analytical decision. More important than a dogmatic decision on a particular key center or a root tone, for example, is the understanding of why such an underdeterminate condition may exist.
