Violin Concerto in Bb Major

Written in the year 1775, Mozart's lively violin concerti manifest the young composer's astonishing maturity and command of his craft. An incredible fluency of musical speech ? richness of texture and sheer beauty of melodic line pervade this music (Veims, The Concertos). Indeed, the concerti are the composer's earliest compositions that have maintained a secure position in the world's repertoire. Also a staple of the concert hall is the Sinfonia Concertante, K.364, composed in 1779, and scored for violin, viola, and orchestra. Undoubtedly the most significant work Mozart composed that year, the piece is distinguished by its symphonic sweep, advanced harmonies, and the beautiful slow movement, among Mozart's most moving creations. Now all six masterpieces are available in this convenient, inexpensive edition.

for Violin and Orchestra-Mozart composed the majority of his works for solo String Instruments and Orchestra during the years 1773 to 1779. Especially important in this context are the years 1773 and 1775 which witnessed the creation of the five concertos for Violin and Orchestra as well as several single movements for the same scoring. The reasons for this flourish of activity in this domain lie partly in the fact that Mozart who still occupied the post of concertmaster to the Prince-Archbishop was either obliged or inspired to provide such works for special occasions during this long period spent in Salzburg. But another reason was certainly the possibility of experimenting withall the new compositional techniques acquired during his third trip to Italy and his stay of several months in Vienna from July to September 1773.The Piano reduction of Mozart?s G Major Violin Concerto is easier to play uncluttered and practical with page turns where you need them and where necessary fold-out pages.The solo part gives players the critical Urtext of the New Mozart Edition.

Arrangeur: Cho-Liang Lin. Over the wonderfully enjoyably years of conducting, there have been so many fine encounters with the Mozart Violin Concertos - mostly with very gifted players like Menuhin, Oistrakh, Stern and, more recently, Cho-Liang (Jimmy) Lin. There have, however, been instances (only a few, I'm pleased to say) when I've come, in the performances, to dread the onslaught of those cadenzas, which sound like a send up of Paganini, or belong to the wrong century with a plethora of double-stopping lasting too long, venturing into tonalities Mozart would not have recognized. After several performances with Jimmy came a request from him for suitable cadenzas that showed off the solo violin while commenting on Mozart's music he had just played. They worked, and Sony asked us to record them all and, with the welcome inclusion of Jaime Laredo, all the rest of Mozart's violin and orchestra repertoire. This led to in an invitation from Schott to have the cadenzas published, and this is the result. / Classique / Recueil / Violon

Considered one of the most technically difficult works for the Violin Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto in D major Op. 35 is one of the best known Violin concertos constantly performed by the world’s greatest artists. The genius of Tchaikovsky translates beautifully in the expressive second movement of the concerto. Canzonetta is a lyrical andante in G minor which should be played with a lot of sentiment for best results. This edition is arranged for Violin solo with a Piano accompaniment replacing the ensemble part.Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s works included symphonies concertos operas ballets chambermusic and a choral setting of the Russian Orthodox Divine Liturgy. He was the first Russian composer whose music made a lasting impression internationally some of his compositions are among the most popular theatrical music in the classical repertoire.

Music Minus One Violin-Little need be said for what may be the most beautiful violin concerto ever put to paper. With its soaring melodies broad lyricism beyond compare this masterwork is pure magic. An essential for every serious violinist. Brahms dedicated this piece to Joseph Joachim the famous violinist who contributed much to its solo part. An often technically difficult masterwork but well worth the effort to learn it it is a magnificently rewarding concerto. Contains a printed score and a compact disc featuring the concerto in split-channel stereo with the violinist on the right channel then again in a stereo accompaniment version minus the solo violin part.
