Music from the Motion Picture Soundtrack for Violin Solo. Par BOLOGNE JOSEPH. Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges, was born Christmas Day, 1745, on the island of Guadeloupe, then a French colony, in the Caribbean Sea. The son of a wealthy plantation owner and a slave, he rose to unimaginable heights in French society thanks to his excellence in many things including math, literature, and fencing, but most of all, music. He rose to become one of the most popular violinists and composers in France, even hired to provide music lessons for the imperious Marie Antoinette who would become the last queen of France. Bologne's amazing life story came to life in the 2022 film Chevalier. Our matching folio includes original works by Bologne as well as violin solo arrangements of the score by Kris Bowers and featuring Violin Duel by Michael Abels. The book also includes a short biography of Bologne's life story. / Date parution : 2023-10-31/ Recueil / Violon

Dont Kreutzer Rode: three of the most prominent Violin pedagogues of the nineteenth century are united here in one volume. At the outset of the nineteenth century Rodolphe Kreutzer and Pierre Rode each composed epochal collections of studies (see HN 1177 and HN 1186); in 1852 as an introduction to these two standard works Jakob Dont wrote his exceptionally helpful 24 Preparatory Exercises op. 37 which even today no student of the Violin can avoid. Their success is also evident from the fact that numerous revised editions were published in the twentieth century by violinists such as Hans Sitt Carl Flesch or Ivan Galamian. Now for the first time G. Henle Publishers’Urtext edition restores access to the unadulterated original with Dont’s authentic fingering and bowing suggestions in an outstandingly legible musical text. The prominent Violin pedagogue Paul Roczak acted as a consultant for this edition and carefully supplemented Dont’s original marking.

Contemporary Violin Studies. Par KNOX GARTH. 'Often in a humoristic manner and always with musical expression in focus, these eight pieces are perfect for every violinist to practice playing techniques and to enhance the enthusiasm to experiment and the joy of playing.' (Carolin Widmann) 'This collection of concert studies for violin explores what are often referred to as “extended techniques”. These are for the most part techniques which are already present in classical music in a secondary role, but which have now, through continuous development, come to occupy a musical place of primary importance. Each of the studies concentrates on a single technique, investigating how it works technically, and exploring its musical possibilities. They are called “Spaces” because as well as being concert pieces, they are intended to open up spaces for exploration, discussion and improvisation around these techniques. They are also intended to be enjoyable to play, to work on and to listen to. Far from being an esoteric handbook of complex techniques reserved for contemporary music specialists, these “Spaces” are designed to help all violinists to explore, in a playful and imaginative way, the possibilities of their instrument and to discover some sounds and techniques that will have very tangible positive effects on their playing of all styles of music. We can all extend our techniques by opening up the space around them and taking them to their limits. The Violin Spaces are dedicated to Diamanda Dramm, whose talent, enthusiasm, suggestions and feedback were an enormous help to me in the construction of these ”Spaces”.' (Garth Knox) / Niveau : 5 / Etude / Violon

The compositions by Jacques Pierre Joseph Rode (1774-1830) especially his violin concertos and the caprices in this edition have been very popular among violinists to this day. The caprices have taken on a permanent place in the solo violin literature next to those by Kreutzer Dont Wieniawski or Paganini since they are invaluable for a sound technical and musical training. What gives this edition its special value is that the renowned violin teacher Max Rostal wrote preparatory exercises for each of the 24 caprices which are tailor-made to match methodologically exactly the content of the exercise of the respective caprice.

This unaffected but effective piece is a homage to the late Marjorie Linklater a much-loved friend from Orkney and a charming set-piece for violinists of moderate ability. The slow introductory adagio serves the function of afond elegy proving the simple effect of moving between D minor and D major. It serves the songful quality of the violin as does the wistful central episode of the main sequence; but an exuberant love of the dance is the essenceof the allegro with the high bright sonority of the instrument very much to the fore. It was first performed by Julia Robinson Dean at the St Magnus Festival Orkney on 21st June 1998. Arranged for solo violin. Durationc. 4 minutes.

Designed to help people master all 24 major and minor scales. In this book first all the violin scales are re-organized to be more simple practical and easy to learn. Then all the fingerings of the single-stop scales areclassified into only a few basic patterns. When practicing violinists can study these fingering patterns first and then use them to play all 24 scales easily. Finally all the fingerings of the double-stop scales are alsore-edited to make them as simple as possible. With this approach the process of learning violin scales is much easier than before.
