A violinist herself, Lauren Bernofsky has described SONATA FOR SOLO VIOLIN as drawn from autobiographical inspiration, including gestures from Bach??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 ??white-hot,? 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 ??Preludio? movement from Bach??s E major Partita, and I decided to refer to that music in my own first movement, also titled ??Preludio.? The beginning subtly reflects Bach??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 Bach??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 Bach??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 ??White-hot.? 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 ??fall-offs? 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.

Sonate B-dur: Es gibt nur wenige Werke fur Solovioline aus der Mozart-Zeit; das macht diese Erstveroffentlichung interessant. Die grosse Zeit der Violinvirtuosen Walther, Biber, Westhoff, Pisendel und anderer hatte mit Johann Sebastin Bachs Solosonaten und -partiten einen Abschluss gefunden. Aus der vorklassischen Periode kennen wir ausser vielen Unterrichtswerken fur Violine nur wenige konzertante Kompositionen fur eine Violine allein. Dazu zahlen insbesondere die Sonaten von Friedrich Wilhelm Rust und Johann Friedrich Reichardt, beide aus dem Umkreis Franz Bendas, die aber deutlich an barocke Vorbilder anknupfen. - Die hier vorgelegte Sonate in B-Dur von Pesch ist ein in beiden Satzen fast durchgangig zweistimmiges Stuck. Die Tonart B-Dur mag zunachst etwas befremden, ist aber nicht ungewohnlich, denn auch Solowerke von Westhoff und Rust stehen in dieser Tonart; sie erweist sich als durchaus geigerisch und klangvoll in diesem ungewohnlichen Werk. Die in vielen Veroffentlichungen wiedergegebenen Lebensdaten von Pesch, die aus unbekannter Quelle stammen und immer wieder benutzt wurden, sind durchweg falsch. Aus der Eintragung im Kirchenbuch der Gemeinde St. Blasius in Braunschweig ist der 27. Februar 1791 als Sterbedatum eindeutig festgestellt. Die Braunschweigische Anzeigen schreiben Am 27sten Februar ... verstarb ... Herr Carl August Pesch im 57ten Jahr seines Alters. Im 57ten Jahr bedeutet, dass er 56 Jahre alt wurde, also 1735 geboren ist. Uber seine Herkunft ist bisher wenig bekannt: Nach 1760: Eintritt in den herzoglichen Dienst in Braunschweig; 1763: Leopold Mozart erwahnt Pesch unter den Personen, die er im Gasthof Goldener Lowe in Frankfurt/Main getroffen hat; 1765: Reise mit dem Herzog nach London, dort Veroffentlichung einiger Werke; 1766/1767: Reise mit dem Herzog nach Italien; 1776 Konzerte in Frankfurt/Main.

For almost 100 years, violinists had to live without Eugene Ysaye's Sonata Op. 27bis. The work was re-discovered in a sketchbook recently given to the library of Brussels' Koninklijk Conservatorium and is now published for the first time. The Sonate posthume was composed in the surrounding of Ysaye's famous cycle of six solo sonatas for violin and shares their artistic quality.
