Für Violine und Orchester Op. 64-Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto op. 64 is a key work of the 19th century adhering to the classical style of Beethoven while pointing the way to the romantic ethos of Brahms. It has long been known that Mendelssohn performed the work with three soloists in succession: Ferdinand David who worked closely with the composer during its composition and played it at the premi?re; the ‘child prodigy’ Joseph Joachim; and Hubert L?onard a young Belgian virtuoso about whom little is known.As proof sheets for the Violin Concerto in E minor were long considered lost it could be described as somewhat of a sensation when proofs for the soloviolin part resurfaced together with a letter from Mendelssohn to L?onard.The letter informs us that the composer invited L?onard to his home in Frankfurt in order to make his acquaintance. It was already known that Mendelssohn had given proof sheets to David; now we know that he also gave some to L?onard.The recently discovered proofs reveal how L?onard played the concerto with Mendelssohn on that memorable evening in February 1845. Besides containing bowing marks and fingering they also show how L?onard executed shifts of position and where he employed open strings. Furthermore modifications made to dynamic markings and additional legato bowing are shown.It is safe to assume that all of this was done with Mendelssohn’s approval. That the young violinist made a positive impression on the composer is confirmed in the latter’s correspondence following their joint performance. Mendelssohn is full of praise for L?onard’s playing and offers to lend his support in finding employment in Germany.This revised edition of the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto (only the orchestral parts remain unchanged) includes a separate booklet on performance practice.The editor Clive Brown is an acknowledged expert on Romantic performance practice.- New source situation owing to recently rediscovered proofs- Revised Urtext edition- With a separate booklet on performance practice (BA9060) (Eng/Ger)- Full score in the revised early and late (popular) versions (BA9099)

Friedrich Seitz (1848 1918) was one of the best-known and most sought-after violinists of his day. The Student Concerto Op.12 starts with a resolute allegro in G minor followed by a gentle adagio in E-flat major and flows into a cheerful dance-like final move-ment in G major. In order to play this violinists must be able to master 1st to 3rd positions.The series forms an ideal continuation of the Sassmannshaus 'Early Start' string methods but can also be used to supplement any other string tutor.

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 ofexperimenting with all the new compositional techniques acquired during his third trip to Italy and his stay of several months in Vienna from July to September 1773.New straightforward Piano reduction (BA4863-90) with:- Violin solo part with the Urtext of the New Mozart Edition- Additional violin solo part with fingerings bowings and performance comments- Additional booklet with cadenzas and transitions by L. Auer J. Joachim S. Franko E. Ysaÿe M. WulfhorstThis collection offers players a spectrum of styles available in no other publication.

It made its creator world-famous and added a towering masterpiece to the standard repertoire: Max Bruch’s First Violin Concerto In G Minor. Now it’s appearing at last in an urtext edition from Henle.Bruch himself was not always overjoyed at his work’s popularity: 'I can’t listen to this concerto anymore ' he once complained to his publisher Simrock 'do you suppose I’ve only written one concerto?' By now theBruch Concerto has found a permanent place in the world’s concert halls. Henle’s edition provides not only a razor-sharp urtext for the solo part but a preface that alone is worth the price of the volume: who could haveguessed that the concerto went through a convoluted genesis with multi-layered revisions and that some of the changes go back to the famous violinist Joseph Joachim?

With marked and unmarked string parts.The genesis of Berg's Violin Concerto in 1935 is shrouded in tragedy. He had only just finished making the first sketches when Manon Gropius - the daughter of Walter Gropius and AlmaMahler with whom Berg was friends - died of polio.He dedicated the concerto 'To the memory of an angel' in her memory. Then Alban Berg died in 1935 so he no didn't live to see it printed or performed. Henle's edition -Violin part and Piano reduction - follows the score edited by Michael Kube which is being published simultaneously by Breitkopf & Härtel together with the orchestral parts and pocket score.The illustrious violinist FrankPeter Zimmermann has provided fingerings and bowings for the violin part.

Violin Concerto In G major is considered to be the earliest of Joseph Haydn?s Violin concertos and was apparently written before he was taken into the service of the Esterházy family. It was firstpublished a century after the Austrian composer?s death in 1909 and was little known before. The concerto is lovely and ingratiating to the ear consisting of 3 movements (Allegro moderato Adagio andAllegro) with a total performance time of under 20 minutes. The unmatched intimacy and loveliness of the uniquely beautiful Adagio and the high spirited final movement with its charming Bagpipe imitation will putplayers and audiences alike in the best of moods from the outset. This Urtext edition provides you with a clear and accurate representation of the composer's original intentions. The Orchestra part is reduced to a Pianoaccompaniment and two copies of the Violin score which is identical to that of the Haydn-Gesamtausgabe are enclosed as separate inserts. A preface in German English and French by editor Günter Thomas is included as well.

Bohuslav Martinu wrote his first Violin Concerto in Paris in 1932 33 this work having been commissioned by the Violin virtuoso Samuel Dushkin. However it was never performed during the composer?s lifetime and was even considered lost after his death.

Moldenhauer approached Czech violinist Josef Suk who gave the world premiere of the work with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra under Georg Solti in October 1973.This Piano reduction is based on the musical text of the first edition.
