Le premier volume de Early Start on the Violin présente l'apprentissage la lecture des notes, leurs valeurs et les altérations de manière adaptée aux jeunes enfants. Différents coups d'archet ainsi que l'usage de la main gauche sont introduits en s'appuyant sur des chansons enfantines connues. L'utilisation de plusieurs structures de la main gauche est un des aspects les plus importants du second volume. Cette technique pose de manière convaincante les bases nécessaires à une virtuosité précoce. / Méthodes et pédagogie / Cordes / Violon / BARENREITER

Für Violine und Orchester Op. 64-Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto op. 64 is a key work of the 19th century adhering to the classical style of Beethoven while pointing the way to the romantic ethos of Brahms. It has long been known that Mendelssohn performed the work with three soloists in succession: Ferdinand David who worked closely with the composer during its composition and played it at the premi?re; the ‘child prodigy’ Joseph Joachim; and Hubert L?onard a young Belgian virtuoso about whom little is known.As proof sheets for the Violin Concerto in E minor were long considered lost it could be described as somewhat of a sensation when proofs for the soloviolin part resurfaced together with a letter from Mendelssohn to L?onard.The letter informs us that the composer invited L?onard to his home in Frankfurt in order to make his acquaintance. It was already known that Mendelssohn had given proof sheets to David; now we know that he also gave some to L?onard.The recently discovered proofs reveal how L?onard played the concerto with Mendelssohn on that memorable evening in February 1845. Besides containing bowing marks and fingering they also show how L?onard executed shifts of position and where he employed open strings. Furthermore modifications made to dynamic markings and additional legato bowing are shown.It is safe to assume that all of this was done with Mendelssohn’s approval. That the young violinist made a positive impression on the composer is confirmed in the latter’s correspondence following their joint performance. Mendelssohn is full of praise for L?onard’s playing and offers to lend his support in finding employment in Germany.This revised edition of the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto (only the orchestral parts remain unchanged) includes a separate booklet on performance practice.The editor Clive Brown is an acknowledged expert on Romantic performance practice.- New source situation owing to recently rediscovered proofs- Revised Urtext edition- With a separate booklet on performance practice (BA9060) (Eng/Ger)- Full score in the revised early and late (popular) versions (BA9099)

First came Johann Sebastian Bach?s sonatas and partitas then Nicolò Paganini?s caprices. Now with the Op. 27 Sonatas of Eugène Ysaÿe the key works in the repertoire for unaccompanied Violin areavailable in urtext editions from Henle. Ysaÿe peppered these challenging works with extraordinary difficulties dedicating each of them to a virtuoso violinist of his day and tailoring it to suit his specialcapabilities. Thanks to newly discovered source material we are able to present a ?definitive text? that in many respects supersedes the previously available text from the first edition.

Edited by Renato Zanettovich-All 36 studies for violin from H. E.Kayser combined in one volume.This revision of the Studies by Kayser will help beginners get used to adopting rational fingerings right from the start.However complicated they may seem at first sight rational fi ngerings actually provide more reliable solutions even to the minor technical problems encountered in these elementary studies. Some passages use the second position (sometimes to avoidunnecessary extensions) on the assumption that anyone using these studies will already have begun to practise the positions.The fi ngerings placed in brackets are either more demanding or given as an alternative; the teacher will be able to guide thestudent as to which option to choose. Finally I have prefaced almost all the studies with preparatory exercises and variants (from the preface by Renato Zanettovich).
