10 Duets. Par DIVERS AUTEURS (ARR.IGUDESMAN ALEKSEY). A violinist and a cellist having fun together! Whoever heard of such a thing? But that is exactly what Alexey Igudesman has provided for in his 'Violin and Violoncello and More”. He has responded to popular demand and arranged - no, recreated! - duets from his previous publications for two violins. These encompass many different styles but always with Alexsey's own individual and quirky touch. The contents list reads like a world tour, passing through Scotland, Ireland, Israel, Khazakhstan and many other countries. Igudesman took great care to 'custom make” the cello part as he wanted these arrangements to be as musically valuable as his original versions. He encourages the players to be creative, adding improvisation or even choreography but, above all, to have fun. These pieces will suit intermediate players who want to be stretched or more advanced students who simply want to let their hair down!/ Répertoire / Violon et Violoncelle

In 1717 Telemann composed his cantata 'Gott der Hoffnung erfülle euch? for the first day of Whitsun based on a text by Erdmann Neumeister. It forms part of the 'Concerten-Jahrgang?, also known as 'Das Harmonische Zion? or 'Italienischer Jahrgang? where all the cantatas are conceived as concertos for vocal and instrumental parts and have been colourfully scored. This particular work includes two oboes, two Corni da Caccia and strings. Vocal soloists, choir and instruments alternate and have equal musical standing in this festive Whitsun cantata which provides a valuable addition to the church service or concert repertoire. - Urtext edition based on 'Georg Philipp Telemann, Musical Works?- Cantata for the first day of Whitsun- Ideal for church services and concerts- An attractive addition to the repertoire with a view to the 250th anniversary of Telemann's death (2017) / Violon Et Violoncelle
