über einen ostinaten Bass von Henry Purcell. Par KLOTZKE ERNST-AUGUST. Eine heterogene Welt, aufgefasst als dramatisches Gefüge, in diesem Sinne ist music for a while ein Kommentar zu der Oper The Fairy Queen von Henry Purcell. In music for a while entspinnt sich ein Gewebe aus kleinen Formteilen [Kommentare, Prologe, Anklänge an barocke Satztypen, programmatische Titel], die entweder Strukturtypen des Vorbildes offenlegen oder Musikalisierungen des poetischen Sujets, eine direkte Umsetzung der durch Sprache vermittelten Empfindungen sind. Konsistenz entsteht durch die für das ganze Stück verbindliche Anlagen der Tonhöhenkonzeption, vielleicht sollte man besser sagen: Die Töne haben eine Art und Weise ihres Auftretens; entweder sie bilden für dieDauer ihrer Existenz Achsen oder Intervalle, oder es gibt charakteristische Kombinationen aus Glissandi und Sprüngen./ Répertoire / 2 Violons

This type of training is excellent preparation for participation in large groups. These four volumes of duets for two violins will help fill the need for early ensemble experience in the public schools.

They may be played by two performers, or by multiple performers on each part, with or without piano accompaniment.
