Par . String duets tend to be somewhat upstaged by other instrumentations for string chamber music?especially string quartets, yet the string duet is an ideal introduction to the world of chamber music for anyone who is learning an instrument. Fabian Payr and Ruth Bamberger have selected 15 suitable harpsichord works from the Baroque period and have arranged them for two string instruments. These easily playable duet pieces are especially appropriate as material for instrumental lessons but also as repertoire for student performances. They encourage the study of Baroque performance practice and promote the somewhat overlooked subject of chamber music ensemble playing. / Date parution : 2022-07-20/ Recueil / Violon et Violoncelle

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.

This is not just another book of Irish session tunes. It represents the relatively unknown repertoire of a single Irish traditional musician Packie Manus Byrne of Donegal. There has been considerable interest in the music ofDonegal over the past 10 years or so especially with the rise of groups such as Altan.

Suitable for fiddle tin whistle flute and other traditional instruments. The CD includes 33 of the tunes performed by Jean Duval Stephen Jones Johanne St. Laurent Lynda Dowker and Reinhard Görner on a variety of instruments.
