Johann Sebastian Bach sonates et Partitas pour violon Solo sont parmi les plus célèbres chefs-d'oeuvre de leur genre. Contrairement aux étroitement apparentées Suites pour violoncelle Solo, les solos de violon ont survécu dans un manuscrit autographe du compositeur sur la base de laquelle seul un texte musical en grande partie fiable est disponible. Cependant, ce manuscrit est une copie du projet des copies antérieures ou encore plus équitables copies du compositeur. Wiener Urtext édition utilise la copie du copiste un début de Köthen comme source secondaire qui n'a pas été évaluée très fortement comme source jusqu'à maintenant. Malgré sa proximité avec l'autographe existante, on ne peut écarter la possibilité que cette copie pourrait remonter à un autre manuscrit original de Bach. Quoi qu'il en soit, certaines erreurs évidentes de la copie équitable existante peuvent être précisées sur la base de son texte - en outre, elle fournit un certain nombre d'articulations ne pas indiqué ailleurs (certains même avec les solutions de rechange) qui sont des exemples de comment ces oeuvres peut être effectué en accordin... / Violon / Partition

10 Intermediate-Level, Traditional Klezmer Pieces. 'Klezmer Duets” by Deborah Strauss and Alan Bern is an ideal introduction to this traditional music. Although the clarinet is now associated with klezmer music, the violin was actually used centuries before the clarinet was even invented. Over that time, violinists developed special techniques of bowing, articulation, ornamentation, phrasing and timing to express the nuances of the music. These nuances cannot exactly be written down in standard notation and klezmer can be thought of as a kind of semi-improvised music. In their arrangements, Strauss and Bern have offered one way of playing each piece, not a definitive way. An appendix explains the way these variations and ornamentations can be applied to the bare bones of other pieces - another appendix gives help to the accordion player. The authors have also provided free articles and videos online to assist the players further. Treat this book as a stepping off point to explore this evocative music - it's a gateway to the amazing world of klezmer music!/ Recueil / Violon et Accordéon

Alliage (Alloy) III for Violin Cello Classical Accordion and two Kokles (2010). Parts are available: WH31231A Programme note The instruments of this quintet are very different in appearance and in the way of playing as well as toneproduction: strings to be bowed strings to be plucked confronted with the airborne tone of the Accordion. The origins and the traditions of the instruments are also very diversified reaching from traditional folkmusic (the Kokle) and popular music (the Accordion) to art music of the classical tradition (the Violin and Cello). Acknoledging these references and connotations I refrainnevertheless from an obvious ‘casting’ of the instruments since I have always been fascinated by the less evident by transitions and gradual displacement by the intangible places between one and the other. I search for this ‘terrain vague’ of fruitfull incertainty andpermanent genesis. To arrive there I have in this piece created a musical expression which makes hidden relations and unexploredsonorous paths come forward between the different sound worlds of the instruments. Bringing together these musical substances I look for something deeper than just common sounds: a fresh musical place. And the lively and bright sound world that emerges form this instrumental and textural ’in-between’ I associate to alloys inparticular the silvery amalgamations of mercury. The work was composed to musicians from the Latvian ensemble Altera Veritas and of Ensemble Aleph (France) was a part of the project European Instrumental Laboratory. Niels Rosing-Schow
