To see the summer sky for Violin and Viola falls into four movements. The first movement opens with the two instruments sounding almost as one playing very high glassy harmonics. Gradually an expressive viola solo emerges withboth instruments descending to their lower ranges. A livelier quasi scherzando solo for violin accompanied by viola pedal notes leads to a chorale like passage the violin at the top of its range whilst the viola is at itslowest. The movement ends with the two instruments coming together once again on a unison Bb and fades away almost as it has begun but this time in the husky lower registers.The second movement is much faster and openswith a downward flurry for both instruments. A continuous pizzicato line for viola is interrupted by more violent passages in the violin. The two instruments come together in a dance-like passage before the roles are reversed.Finally an ecstatic melody surfaces in the viola and is later continued in the violin before the movement closes with the spiky figures of its opening the two instruments ending in unison.The third movement encompasses isthe most delicate and still music of the piece. After a very tranquil opening an expressive violin melody is accompanied by a gentle rocking figure in the viola. Tentative at first intensity and speed gather until the violinreaches stratospheric heights. Both of the instruments play at the extremes of their registers before moving to common ground for a more lively textural passage. This is followed by a passionate reminder of the movement’s opening gradually fading away to nothing.The piece ends with a Moto Perpetuo. The instruments begin by dovetailing a single line which develops into two strands before a more violent section appears punctuated by strident doublestops. Both instruments have slightly manic solo episodes before the movement quickly dies away in the single line of its opening

A cura di Italo Vescovo. Par PAGANINI NICCOLO. Nicolò Paganini?s Minuetto e Trio in F sharp major for violin and viola - the autograph manuscript of which is preserved in the Biblioteca Casanatense in Rome - is, together with his Sonata a violino e viola (M.S. 108), one of the rare pieces the Genoese composer wrote for this particular ensemble. In addition to expanding Paganini?s treasured catalogue, its rediscovery could provide scholars with new insights into the famed virtuoso?s chamber music output. / Date parution : 2022-04-26/ Répertoire / Violon et Alto

Par VEYRIER JACQUES. Les Pastorales se présentent sous la forme d'un triptyque (vif, lent, vif) sans pour autant suivre le plan habituel de la forme sonate. En effet, la première partie enchaîne une mosaïque de thèmes qui présentent en commun une simplicité toute agreste, ce qui explique le titre de ces pièces. / Niveau : Moyen Avancé à Assez Difficile / Moderne / Date parution : 2010-02-15/ Répertoire / Violon et Alto

L'année Mozart, Thomas Zehetmair et Ruth Kilius a demandé à Heinz Holliger pour une pièce encore frappante de la Sinfonia concertante de Mozart qui n'avait souvent été effectuée sous sa direction par eux. Le résultat, cependant, est un cycle de trois volets indépendant composé de pièces très différentes. Le premier a été tissé exclusivement de flottant harmoniques, la deuxième est une danse tourbillonnante sauvage, tandis que la troisième se condense dans un choral de six parties dans lequel chaque joueur a chanter une troisième voix en plus de jouer le double s'arrête sur son instrument à cordes. / Violon Et Alto

In late 1779 Mozart penned this delectable classic which stands as the only remaining Mozart composition in this form incorporating both symphonic and concerto styles. It features wonderful parts for both of the soloinstruments against Mozart's incomparably brilliant writing and orchestration. We have also included two wonderful Mozart bon-bons The E-major Adagio KV364; and the C-major Rondo KV373. A magical and exciting experienceto perform this alongside virtuoso Jürgen Klos at the viola and Les Orpheistes Chamber Orchestra under the baton of Joel Mathias Jenny. A classic not to be missed by any violinist! Includes slow-tempo practice accompanimentsof the faster outer movements.
