2-CD Set-Performed by Anna Reider violin Accompaniment: Plovdiv Philharmonic Orchestra Conductor: Nayden Todorov The great composer/virtuoso Henryk Wieniawski wrote this concerto in 1853 at the age of 18. But it reflects an astounding musical maturity. In particular this concerto features a grand theatrical air with plenty of pathos and poetry and magnificent multiple-stopping for the solo instrument. This was a common part of the repertoire until his own second concerto supplanted it. Conventional only in its form it is extremely innovative in its musical and technical materials with a beautiful and heroic main theme. The second movement a short Larghetto is a simple yetexquisite musical prayer demanding exquisite musical tone. The Rondo movement is an energetic movement filled with extremely useful exercises in wrist movement and the martelé stroke. All in all a majestic example of the Romantic concerto and a very valuable learning tool for the advancing player. Here finally in a brand new digital recording is this Romantic-era treasure for your own discovery. Includes an authoritative newly engraved music score printed on high-quality ivory paper; a digital stereo compact disc featuring a complete performance of the concerto with flute

Easy Klezmer Tunes was created in response to many requests for a simplified version of Stacy Phillips' highly acclaimed "Klezmer Collection". Phillips has compiled a selection of pieces for beginning instrumentalists from that classic book. Klezmer music originally came from the Jewish ghettoes of Eastern Europe of the 19th and early 20th Centuries. The style reflects its mix of heritages from Europe, Near East and Gypsy. These arrangements are based on some of the earliest classic recordings in Europe and America. As such, they are a great introduction to this music which is now a world-wide phenomenon. Each number is arranged for C, Bb, Eb and Bass Clef instruments. Brass, Reed, Piano, Flute and String players can receive instant gratification from these entry level arrangements. The accompanying audio demonstrates ensemble versions of all the music, performed at slow tempos, by world class Klezmer artists on Clarinet, Violin, Guitar and Bass. Includes access to online audio.
