Par GERSHWIN GEORGE. Jascha Heifetz (1901-1987) and George Gershwin (1898-1937), two of the best known figures in American music, were good friends and often played together. Heifetz had urged Gershwin to write a violin concerto for him, but unfortunately Gershwin died before the project got off the ground. These transcriptions by Heifetz are the next best thing. The five excerpts from Porgy and Bess'« and the Three Preludes are well known and Heifetz often played them as encores, but the substantial concert excerpt from An American in ParisTM has never been published before and may not have been performed by Heifetz in public at all. The infectious rhythms and gorgeous tunes of thisAmerican classic are brilliantly served by Heifetz as transcriber, and the Porgy excerpts (which include 'Bess, You Is My Woman Now,' 'Summertime' and 'My Man's Gone Now') sizzle with virtuoso pizzazz in these wonderful arrangements. This edition is a must-have for lovers of the violin and the music of Gershwin! / Date parution : 2022-11-04/ Recueil / Violon et Piano

This work comprises arrangements of two classic songs by Gershwin: 'Somebody Loves Me' and 'The Man I Love' arranged by Peter Sculthorpe for String Quartet. Full Score.

16 Wonderful Songs From Classic To Rock. Par GARRETT DAVID. Sa manière d'allier le classique à la pop et au rock a rendu David Garrett célèbre dans le monde entier. Pour la première fois, il donne sa version personnelle écrite de succès planétaires. Il en résulte un volume inspirant mais aussi exigeant pour violon et piano. Parmi les 16 transcriptions, on compte aussi bien des chef-d'oeuvres classiques de Beethoven et Paganini que des chansons pop et rock de Justin Timberlake, Metallica ou Led Zeppelin. Grâce à sa collaboration avec Franck van der Heijden et John Haywood, David a pu créer une partie de piano qui retranscrit l'essence d'un arrangement pour orchestre./ Recueil / Violon et Piano

Variationen über die Caprice Nr. 24 im Stil des Modern Jazz. Par SAY FAZIL. The concert piece Paganini Jazz by Fazil Say, which was inspired by classical, modern and jazz styles, is reminiscent of the music of such greats as Scott Joplin, Art Tatum, Gershwin and Bernstein, and was originally designed as a charming encore work (1988); following the appreciative response of music lovers and, in particular, that of music critics, it was transformed over a perion of time into a more substantial work for piano. Briefly, the piece was rewritten and expanded a number of times between 1988 and 1995. We can evaluate the work as having taken its inspiration from Paganini's renowned '24th Capriccio', transforming it into 'variations on jazz' requiring virtuoso rendition as well as being a creation open to the addition of improvisations and a variety of arrangements. Throughout music history a number of composers have written various works inspired by the '24th Capriccio'. We can count among them Liszt, Brahms, Rachmaninov and Lutoslavski. In Say's work, however, a different aspect must be noted: the composer is prepared to add various 'developmental passages' and 'transitional improvisations' while interpreting this work in concert. Furthermore, when the work is considered as a short encore piece, it is abbreviated in a manner deemed suitable by Say. / Niveau : 5 / Répertoire / Violon, Piano, Guitare Basse et Percussion
