A violinist herself, Lauren Bernofsky has described SONATA FOR SOLO VIOLIN as drawn from autobiographical inspiration, including gestures from Bachâ??s beloved Partita in E Major. Bernofsky opens with a Preludio movement whose references to Bach may be disguised, but they are surely lurking. The second movement is lusciously contrapuntal with the idiomatic finesse of a violinist composing for her own instrument, while musically journaling the emotional pain of living through 2020. The third and final movement is aptly marked â??white-hot,â? and the music certainly is.My SONATA FOR SOLO VIOLIN was commissioned by violinist Megan Healy as part of The Maud Powell Project, which celebrated the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment. The project included the creation of five new works for solo violin inspired by and dedicated to the memory of pioneering American violinist Maud Powell (1867-1920). Healy premiered the sonata on May 8, 2021 at PianoForte Studios in Chicago.Among the works Powell most frequently performed in her recitals was the â??Preludioâ? movement from Bachâ??s E major Partita, and I decided to refer to that music in my own first movement, also titled â??Preludio.â? The beginning subtly reflects Bachâ??s opening three-note motive, wherein the music dips down a semitone and then comes back up. This melodic material returns throughout the movement in various forms. I also refer to Bachâ??s sixteenth-note dominated texture, and the gesture in the third measure, which outlines a perfect fifth and then fills it in with notes that alternate between a scale and a pedal tone. The corresponding passage in my piece occurs in the same place, measure 3. Apart from these references to Bach, my sonata is much more modern sounding, especially in its chromatic character.I was still thinking of Bachâ??s solo violin writing while composing the second movement, particularly the polyphonic nature of the slow movements, where the melodic interest moves around between the voices. Emotionally, I wanted my movement to reflect the acute sadness I had been experiencing over the political and social situation in the United States as I wrote the piece. I realized that this is a historically noteworthy time in U.S. history, marked not only by political unrest, but also by a challenge to the very values that I consider essential to what makes a person fundamentally human. I wanted to create a record of that pain in my music.The final movement is marked â??White-hot.â? It is imbued with a relentless, passionate intensity. Wanting again to reflect aspects of our own time, I included glissandi that refer to rock music, specifically the â??fall-offsâ? I frequently hear played by electric guitarists. I borrowed from another (completely different) musical tradition as well, one that is near-and-dear to my heart: Klezmer. Klezmer (Eastern European Jewish folk music) is characterized in part by scales colored by augmented seconds, and is often performed by solo instrumentalists who improvise embellishments like quick grace notes. The second, more lyrical theme in this movement is my nod to Klezmer style.While this piece is an homage to Maud Powell, I also think of it as my own musical autobiography, as it combines some of my favorite aspects of music, and is played on my own instrument.

A fun book for beginner violinists which concentrates on both aspects of violin playing - pizzicato and bowing. The volume can be used as a solo or a duet book and combines both techniques in an imaginative and enjoyable way. Vioolspelen kan op twee manieren: strijken (arco) en tokkelen (pizzicato). Om het leren bespelen van de viool op te bouwen kunnen leerlingen soms beter even de strijkstok aan de kant zetten en zich concentreren op het spelen van pizzicato.Daarna kunnen ze beide combineren en komen de vingers van de linkerhand in het spel. Op de cd staan van elk liedje twee meespeelversies: eerst een track met alleen de begeleiding - en voor het spelen van de tweede stem eentrack met de begeleiding en de melodie (afwisselend gespeeld door verschillende instrumenten).Es gibt zwei Arten Violine zu spielen: das Streichen (arco) und das Zupfen (pizzicato). Beide Spielweisen machen Spass und kommen in diesem Buch an die Reihe. Jedes Stuck hat zwei Stimmen: die hohere (die Melodie) und die tiefere Stimme (leicht, mit vielen leeren Saiten). Auf der CD gibt es zu jedem Stuck zwei Mitspiel-versionen. Ob solo oder im Duett mit jemandem - in jedem Fall wird jeder Anfanger auf der Geige bald in der Lage sein, zum ersten Mal vorzuspielen!Ci sono due modi di suonare il violino: con l'archetto o pizzicando la corda. Pizz and Play propone di esercitare le due tecniche attraverso 14 soli o duetti divertenti e fruttuosi.

At this premiere, the violinist was Robert McDuffie, for whom the Concerto was composed. During the summer and autumn of 2009, Glass composed this work after many years of exchanges with McDuffie. His idea of creating a work that would be influenced by, and an accompaniment to Vivaldi's The Four Seasons. Interestingly, Glass has provided no indication in the score of where each season falls, making it open for interpretation by the performers or the audience.
