Niccolò Paganini: Capriccio a violino solo 'In cor più non mi sento': Violin

Edizione critica di Italo Vescovo (M.S. 44)-Paganini?s Capriccio ?In cor più non mi sento? M.S. 44 for solo violin is a work that is practically unknown in its original form consisting of two movements respectively Andante and Presto. The first (Andante) is a variation based on Paisello?s theme (notated on two staffs to differentiate the bowed and pizzicato effects): while the second (Presto) is a virtuosic variation. It is much less famous than Carl Guhr?s version entitled Introduction et Variations sur le Thème «Nel cor più non mi sento» pour le violon seul de Nicolo Paganini which he included in his ?treatise?. Guhr?s version for which we have no surviving original source has been published repeatedly. It is much longer and has got many more variations than the original Capriccio the latter often considered a kind of ?first sketch? of the longer work. Guhr?s version has in many ways overshadowed Paganini?s so that the originality of the latter?s composition and its integrity as a self-standing piece have not been sufficiently appreciated. The present critical edition is based upon an autograph manuscript found in the Berlin Staatsbibliothek. It is compared to both the Zimmermann edition (1960) rather unreliable from a philological point of view: and the ?Tema? and ?Settima variazione? (which ?correspond? to the two movements of the Capriccio) from B. Schott?s Söhne (1829) edition.

per violino - Edizione critica di Italo Vescovo-The Caprice d?Adieu (autograph unknown) is appended to Eduard Eliason?s Six Caprices Caractéristiques pour le Violon Op. 12 which was published in Mayence by B. Schott in 1833. This piece which Paganini dedicated to Eliason is part of a series ofcompositions for violin solo that have been widely ignored by both performers and scholars of the great Genoese musician. It is a composition whose size and structure (A-B-A with two refrains) follows the pattern of some of his Capricci Op. 1 but unlike these proper studies the Caprice d?adieu is lighter and more lively in character. Although not as brilliant musically as the Capricci it still contains some original musical ideas mostly articulated in two parts with a few complextechnical passages and a central contrasting section featuring different dynamics and a range of chords and trills.This critical edition is based on the first edition and is collated with the most important nineteenth and twentieth-century editions.

Difficile. Par PAGANINI NICCOLO. Capriccio de Paganini 'In cor più non mi sento” pour violon solo est une oeuvre pratiquement inconnue dans sa forme originale à deux mouvements, respectivement Andante et Presto. La première (Andante) est une variation basée sur le thème de Paisello, tandis que la seconde (Presto) est une variation virtuose. Beaucoup moins célèbre que la version de Carl Guhr intitulée Introduction et Variations sur le thème 'Nel cor più non m sento' pour violon seul de Nicolo Paganini, qu'il a incluse dans son 'traité'. La version de Guhr, pour laquelle nous n'avons pas de source originale, a été publiée à plusieurs reprises. Il est beaucoup plus long et comporte beaucoup plus de variations que le Capriccio original, ce dernier étant souvent considéré comme une sorte de 'premier croquis' de l'oeuvre plus longue. La version de Guhr a, à bien des égards, éclipsé celle de Paganini, de sorte que l'originalité de sa composition et son intégrité en tant que pièce autonome n'ont pas été suffisamment appréciées. La présente édition critique est basée sur un manuscrit trouvé dans la Staatsbibliothek de Berlin. Il est comparé à l'édition de Zimmermann (1960), assez peu fiable du point de vue philologique, et au 'Tema' et 'Settima variazione' qui correspondent aux deux mouvements du Capriccio des fils de B. Schott (édition de 1829). / Niveau : Difficile / Répertoire / Violon
