Par DAVIES PETER MAXWELL. Composed in London and Italy but inspired by Scottish fiddle writing, Max’s sonata for solo violin is a reflective work that is both exuberant and nostalgic - a fantastic show piece from one of the UK’s most important living composers./ Répertoire / Violon

Tonalité : G-Moll - Op.: 117, 2 -. Par REGER MAX. The facsimile edition of Max Reger’s Präludium and Fugue in G minor op. 117, 2 is meant for music lovers and violinists alike. Music enthusiasts also treasure the strongly expressive musical handwriting of Reger, with its colorful remarks, as an example of graphic individuality. The four-page facsimile, which is inserted loosely in the accompanying text by Jürgen Schaarwächter, offers violinists the possibility to perform this work from 1909 directly from the autograph completed by the composer./ Répertoire / Violon

to the violin concerto by Gyorgy Ligeti. Par ADES THOMAS. In a conversation with the violinist Peter Herresthal, we touched on the “invitation” in the score of Ligeti’s Violin concerto to provide a cadenza for the work. Peter suggested that I answer this invitation and I was happy to accept. I followed all the composer’s directions exactly: the cadenza may use material from all five movements, and should be of “hectic” character throughout. I also aimed to write a cadenza of which the closing orchestral coda would be an inevitable result. (Thomas Adès) The cadenza can also be composed by the soloist and can last up to 1-2 minutes. It should be hectic throughout (continuation of the appassionata agitato molto), but can incorporate melodic material ad lib. from all five movements. Towards the end, the tempo should be prestissimo with alternating arco and left hand pizz. in mad virtuosity. The cadenza has no real end and is suddenly interrupted by the orchestra at R (as agreed between soloist and conductor). This interruption occurs suddenly 'as if unprepared'. The soloist should at this point be playing in high positions (on the top string) at maximum velocity. The solo violin abruptly falls silent on the entry of the high woodblock.

Par SZATHMARY ZSIGMOND. In ancient times, language and music were already regarded as an inseparable unit. Homer's epic poems, for example, were sung, and in the highly developed art of rhetoric, words were used to communicate reason, while music spoke to the soul. Since Monteverdi's time, musical delineation of text has become even more important: rhetoric terms such as 'exclamatio”, 'saltus duriusculus”, and 'climax” were applied to music in order to render the emotional content of the text in even more expressive ways. Szathmàry used this compositional method as a model when he drafted his work for violin 'Rhetorica”. He wrote about this work: 'My aim was to instill a 'speaking quality”into even the tiniest musical elements in order to allow for the music to become a powerful narration of the moments experienced in a human life with all its highs and lows - entirely without the use of words.”/ Répertoire / Violon
