In February 2005 the Music Sales Group presented a concert of music for the Violin at the Wigmore Hall London to launch the Wigmore Hall New Music Fund set up to promote the commissioning and performance of new works for theimportant international recital venue. This title contains works from that performance by fourteen of the very best contemporary composers including Philip Glass Kaija Saariaho and Peter Maxwell Davies as well asworld premieres from Joby Talbot Craig Armstrong John Tavener and Judith Weir. The pieces in this programme have been specially selected for their accessibility making this folio suitable for players of a wide rangeof abilities from elementary level (1st to 3rd position only) to shorter but more challenging adventurous and unusual works. The set as a whole represents the large amount of variety and character alive in today's top-levelcomposition. An excellent repertoire source that is fresh exciting and highly accessible.

One of EMB s most successful composers and publishers, And-rás Soós, has devoted his latest volume to a special instrumental ensemble: three violins. No original works appear in it, in this collection, which aims at variety, we find transcriptions of choral works and piano and guitar pieces, etc. from the 14th to the 19th century. The main consideration in selecting the works was that the score should offer young violinists real chamber music, that is, if possible three equally important parts should share in the music-making.Für ein spezielles Instrumentalensemble, drei Violinen, stellte einer unserer erfolgreichsten Komponisten-Herausgeber, András Soós, seinen neuesten Band zusammen. Originalwerke kommen in ihm gar nicht vor, in der Sammlung, die eine Farbenvielfalt anstrebt, finden wir Transkriptionen von Chorwerken, Klavier- und Gitarrenstücken usw. aus den 14-19. Jahrhundert. Der Schwerpunkt der Sammlung war, dass das Notenmaterial den jungen Violinisten eine echte Kammermusik anbietet, beziehungsweise, dass am Musizieren möglichst drei gleichrangige Stimmen teilnehmen.
