Key West (Violin Solo)

For Violin Solo. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Monument der solistischen Violinmusik, Prüfstein für jeden Geiger mit Anspruch - diese Superlative werden den „Sei Solo', besser bekannt als „Sonaten und Partiten für Violine solo' von Johann Sebastian Bach, beigegeben. Bach schafft vielerlei Beziehungen auf vielerlei Ebenen, teils klar erkennbar, teils subtil: ein Kosmos der Formenvielfalt und des Violinspiels, von der einstimmigen Linie bis zum kontrapunktischen Satz. Dem nachzuspüren, Zusammenhänge zu erkennen vor dem Hintergrund der biographischen, musikhistorischen und kompositorischen Voraussetzungen, ist Zweck dieses Buches. Zugleich liefert Bernhard Moosbauer Hilfestellungen für eine fundierte, aus dem kompositorischen Verständnis der Soli gespeiste Interpretation für Violinisten gleich welcher Couleur. - Einführung in die Musikgeschichte und Struktur der berühmten Solowerke - Beschreibung und Einordnung aller Sätze in die Gesamtanlage - Für professionelle und nichtprofessionelle Geiger sowie für alle Musikinteressierten Bernhard Moosbauer studierte Schulmusik, Komposition, Musikwissenschaft und Barockvioline in Stuttgart, Tübingen und Straßburg. Er widmet sich hauptsächlich der Kammermusik des Barock und spielt außerdem in diversen Ensembles und Orchestern mit Originalinstrumenten im süddeutschen Raum. Seine Forschungsschwerpunkte sind die Instrumentalmusik des 17. und 18. Jahrhunderts und die Sinfonik der Wiener Klassiker. Er ist mit Editionen von Werken Corellis, Vivaldis, Bibers und Händels sowie mit Fachartikeln und Buchpublikationen hervorgetreten. Bei Bärenreiter erschien seine Monographie zu Vivaldis „Vier Jahreszeiten' (BVK 1583)./ Répertoire / Violon

To see the summer sky for Violin and Viola falls into four movements. The first movement opens with the two instruments sounding almost as one playing very high glassy harmonics. Gradually an expressive viola solo emerges withboth instruments descending to their lower ranges. A livelier quasi scherzando solo for violin accompanied by viola pedal notes leads to a chorale like passage the violin at the top of its range whilst the viola is at itslowest. The movement ends with the two instruments coming together once again on a unison Bb and fades away almost as it has begun but this time in the husky lower registers.The second movement is much faster and openswith a downward flurry for both instruments. A continuous pizzicato line for viola is interrupted by more violent passages in the violin. The two instruments come together in a dance-like passage before the roles are reversed.Finally an ecstatic melody surfaces in the viola and is later continued in the violin before the movement closes with the spiky figures of its opening the two instruments ending in unison.The third movement encompasses isthe most delicate and still music of the piece. After a very tranquil opening an expressive violin melody is accompanied by a gentle rocking figure in the viola. Tentative at first intensity and speed gather until the violinreaches stratospheric heights. Both of the instruments play at the extremes of their registers before moving to common ground for a more lively textural passage. This is followed by a passionate reminder of the movement’s opening gradually fading away to nothing.The piece ends with a Moto Perpetuo. The instruments begin by dovetailing a single line which develops into two strands before a more violent section appears punctuated by strident doublestops. Both instruments have slightly manic solo episodes before the movement quickly dies away in the single line of its opening

Six Duos (op. 48) for two Violins. Par PLEYEL IGNAZ JOSEF. These easy duets were published around 1796/97 by Pleyel's own publishing house both as Six Duos faciles et progressives for two violins and as Six nouvelles Sonatines progressives for piano and violin, though we do not know today which version came first. To this day, the violin duets are favorites for use in violin lessons, but also for making music at home. Though lesser known today, around 1800 Ignaz Pleyel numbered among the most popular composers in Western Europe - which may at first come as a surprise, but which to judge from these very appealing pieces, manageable for advanced beginners, is easily understandable. With an unmarked score and two marked solo parts, the Urtext edition provides optimal material for use in teaching. / Classique / Répertoire / 2 Violons
