Brazil offers a great and luxurious musical variety not only for its large extension of land but also for the multiple cultural interchange established along centuries among the several peoples which contributed to the formingof its rich and varied musical map. From that triple (though not always conscious) alliance among the native Indigenous the European colonizer and the African (those latter brought here as slave workers) resulted a 'Brazility'feeling which is common to every country side despite the distances that separate them: joyous melancholic nostalgic or ritual Brazilian music is always the most authentically expression of its people their happiness andsorrows. This work is an effort to display some Brazilian popular melodies arranged for violin and piano. The themes chosen coming from the country as well as urban areas are part of a repertoire quite familiar to everyBrazilian some of them already belonging for centuries to Brazil's memory. No intention of producing a scientific or musicological work has been nourished by the arrangers. What guided them in the choice of the songs presented inthis book was above all a poetic sense and deep love for the music of their country. Enclosed are 19 violin solos on historic Brazilian themes. A free piano accompaniment is available free online.

Arnold Schönberg: String Quartet No. 2 - F# minor for soprano and string quartet op. 10 PH229 Arnold Schoenberg's String Quartet No. 2 op. 10 with soprano (1907 /1908) is among the founding documents of New Music. Instrument: for soprano and string quartet Edition type: pocket score Composer: Schönberg Arnold 'This quartet adds a new element to Schoenberg's creative oeuvre: brevity. It was already indicated by the succinctness of the Chamber Symphony and is clearly expressed in the structure of the F sharp minor Quartet with four shorter movements. There is only a small step from the harmonic language of this work to a complete renunciation of tonality. The last movement - although, in the main, belonging to F sharp mayor - no longer carries a key signature. Chromatic alteration turns the fourth chords into harmonies never heard before, free from any tonal context.' (Anton Webern)

Mozart?s concertos for Violin and Orchestra belong to that elite group of works determining a Violin players abilities; they are elegant and transparent with demanding passage-work. The Concerto In D Major K.2 271a the ?6th? Mozart Violin concerto has come down to us in two separate sources a French set of parts and score copy as well as a Berlin score. The editorial board of the New Mozart Edition considers this concerto to be of doubtful authenticity. There are however many musicologists who feel that the work has numerous Mozart attributes.This new publication takes both the above mentioned sources into account andincludes the cadenzas from the respective New Mozart Edition volume appendix although these are certainly not from Mozart's pen.- The ?6th? Mozart Violin concerto!- Cadenzas from the sources.- With an alternative ending.- Additional solo part with fingerings and bowings.- Straight-forward Piano reduction.- Full score and performance material (BA5769) and Violin and Piano reduction (BA5769-90) available for sale.

Arrangeur: Cho-Liang Lin. Over the wonderfully enjoyably years of conducting, there have been so many fine encounters with the Mozart Violin Concertos - mostly with very gifted players like Menuhin, Oistrakh, Stern and, more recently, Cho-Liang (Jimmy) Lin. There have, however, been instances (only a few, I'm pleased to say) when I've come, in the performances, to dread the onslaught of those cadenzas, which sound like a send up of Paganini, or belong to the wrong century with a plethora of double-stopping lasting too long, venturing into tonalities Mozart would not have recognized. After several performances with Jimmy came a request from him for suitable cadenzas that showed off the solo violin while commenting on Mozart's music he had just played. They worked, and Sony asked us to record them all and, with the welcome inclusion of Jaime Laredo, all the rest of Mozart's violin and orchestra repertoire. This led to in an invitation from Schott to have the cadenzas published, and this is the result. / Classique / Recueil / Violon

for violin and piano-Vladimir Pogoyev's transcriptions for violin and piano of two episodes from Alexander Glasunov's ballet 'Raymonda' are among the most famous 'Raymonda' arrangements. The composer Pogoyev (1872-1941) belonged to the circle ofmusicians around the publisher M.P. Belaieff and was personally acquainted with Glasunov. The brilliant transcriptions of the 'Grand Adagio' and of the 'Waltz' are intended for concert performances but can also be used in musiclessons.
