The violin pupil can be accompanied either by the violin teacher (as a violin duet) or with piano. The optional alternative piano accompaniments are by Heidi Rolfe.'I can still remember the thrill I felt as a child of 8 when my violin teacher introduced me to my first concertino. Learning playing and eventually mastering the famous Küchler Concertino in D major made me feel privileged and grown-up as if I were joining a very special club.That was a long time ago yet for me concertinos still hold a distinctive place in the teaching repertoire. Having now taught the violin for the last thirty years and seen how happily my pupils respond to learningduets - that distinctive sense of enjoyment at playing with an adult the improvement of intonation and tone production the liveliness of the lesson - I have composed three new concertinos inspired by the duet form.Taking three great keys for the violin - G D and A minor I have endeavoured to combine emotionally engaging and technically educational music in the 'Olden Style'. Uniquely I have written a second violin part for the teacher to play alongside their pupil's part and there is also a piano accompaniment for use alternatively in concert settings.I very much hope that these concertinos prove as popular and as helpful as the series of duets in my previously published books Sounds of a Rainbow and that they ignite that sense of wonderment and purpose I experienced while playing the Kuchler all those years ago.'Nigel Goldberg

Par GRUNDMAN JORGE. Originally written for flute and piano and commissioned by the 17th Toledo International Music Festival, Warhol in Springtime takes its name from Andy Warhol and is structured as if a painting were composed from the same image in different tonalities. It should last approximately 15 minutes, in reference to Warhol's famous phrase. The dynamics and expression of the work should be matched by both performers, flautist and pianist, as they feel it. It is dedicated to the late Ukrainian composer Nikolai Kapustin. It belongs to the cycle of four sonatas for flute and piano called The Warhol's Four Seasons of New York. / Date parution : 2022-04-26/ Répertoire / Violon et Piano
