The most
important aspect of the
violin method 'Die

fun of learning to play
the violin: The textbook
is aimed at an early
playful beginning with
the instrument. Over the
course of the lessons,
the pupils are
deliberately addressed in
a language that
corresponds to their age.
Furthermore, the method
provides a stylistically
varied range of classical
and folkloristic
instrumental pieces, and
always gives a lot of
interesting information
on the music and its
composers.Vol. 1:
Detailed introduction to
the bow hold - songs and
instrumental pieces,
using exclusively the
first type of fingering
while focussing on
rhythmic, melodic and
technical variety -
playful touching and
feeling of violin-playing
techniques such as
pizzicato, position
playing, harmonics and
double stops. Vol. 1 is
accompanied by a CD (T
3272) containing all
songs and pieces with
funny dialogues spoken by
children. A motivating
addition to violin
lessons and a great gift
idea!

Nordanvind
is a tour de force
symphonic rhapsody that
is built on three
Scandinavian folk songs.
Composer Carl Strommen
has composed these
Viking-influenced
melodies into a concert
setting that brings out
all of the history of the
Scandinavian people. The
piece is at times bold
and aggressive, at other
times beautiful. Carl
employs all of the
instrumental colors of
the concert band to
create a new work for
more advanced
ensembles. Modern
Scandinavians are
descendants of the
Vikings, an adventuresome
people who were known for
their love of the sea,
their naval prowess, and
as fierce fighters . The
Scandinavian Vikings were
warriors from Denmark,
Norway, and Sweden who
traded, raided and
settled in various parts
of Europe, Russia, the
North Atlantic islands,
and the northeastern
coast of North America
.Starting around 1850,
over one million Swedes
left their homeland for
the United States in
search of religious
freedom and open farm
land . Augustana College
was founded in 1860 by
graduates of Swedish
universities and is
located on the
Mississippi River in Rock
Island, Illinois . Home
of the
“Vikings,â€
Augustana College is the
oldest Swedish- American
institution of higher
learning in the United
States . This powerful
and lively piece takes
inspiration from Swedish
history and from Swedish
folk songs and hymns
.Havsdrake (Dragon of the
Sea)The Nordanvind or
“North Windâ€
blows a cold wind during
a journey of a group of
courageous Viking rowers
. The
“Dragon-shipâ€
or long ships designed
for raiding and war was a
sophisticated, fast ship
able to navigate in very
shallow water . To
musically portray these
magnificent seafaring
vessels, the director is
encouraged to use an
Ocean Drum (or a rain
stick) during the
introduction . Wind
players may consider
blowing air through their
instruments to suggest
the North wind . Adding
men’s voices to
accompany the haunting
low brass and percussive
“rowerâ€
sounds can be helpful in
creating the dark and
ominous portrayal of
Viking adventurers
.Slangpolska efter Byss -
KalleIn Sweden, a
“polska†is a
partner dance where the
dancers spin each other
(släng in Swedish
“to sling or
tossâ€) .
Slangpolska efter Byss -
Kalle is attributed to
Byss-Kalle, who was a
notable Swedish folk
musician, specifically a
nyckelharpa player .
Slangpolska efter Byss -
Kalle is a traditional
“polskaâ€
dance song most often
played on the Nyckelharpa
or keyed fiddle and is
commonly heard in pubs
and at festive events
throughout Sweden .
Approximately 10,000
nyckelharpa players live
in Sweden today, and the
Swedish and the American
Nyckelharpa Associations
are dedicated to this
Swedish National
instrument . The director
is encouraged to share
video and audio examples
of the nyckelharpa
playing the original
Slangpolska efter Byss -
Kalle .Tryggare Kan Ingen
Vara (Children of the
Heavenly Father)Tryggare
Kan Ingen Vara Is a
traditional Swedish
melody, possibly of
German roots, and was
believed to be arranged
as a hymn by the Swedish
hymn writer, Karolina
Wilhelmina Sandell-Berg
(1832–1903) . As a
daughter of a Swedish
Lutheran minister, she
began writing poems as a
teenager and is said to
have written over 1,700
different texts . There
are two different
accounts as to the
inspiration for this hymn
. The first story is that
Lina (as she was called)
wrote the hymn to honor
her father and to say
thank you to him for
raising her and
protecting her . A second
belief is of her
witnessing the tragic
death of her father . She
and her father were on a
boat, when a wave threw
her father overboard . It
was said that the
profound effect of
watching her father drown
is what caused Lina to
write the text to this
hymn . Although this is a
treasured song to people
of Swedish descent
everywhere, it speaks to
all people about a father
tending and nourishing
his children, and
protecting them from evil

The Third
Symphony occupies an
special place in the
evolutionary process of
Szymanowskis style. The
Symphony The Song of the
Night, Op. 27, is a
setting of the poem of
the same title, from the
second divan of Mawlana
Jalal-ad-din Rumi, for
tenor solo, mixed choir
and orchestra. It was
completed in the summer
1916. Szymanowskis
interest in oriental
music at this period is
not so much , as far as
the Third Symphony is
concerned, an attempt at
some formal stylisation
of eastern music, but
rather an indication of
his search for some mode
of expression which would
best reflect the
conflicts of his
aesthetic and artistic
ideas. It was the direct
contact made with the art
of the Grecian and Arabic
worlds during his travel
to Sicily and North
Africa in 1911 and 1914
that provided the
external stimulus for
this interest. The Third
Symphony can be classed
with those symphonies for
chorus and solo voices so
often favoured by the
neo-romantic and
expressionist composers.
It is written in a free
ternary form, the
thematic material being
the basic unifying
structural element, which
imparts a conciseness to
the form, and retaining
the function despite the
significant changes that
occur in the melodic
character of the music.
The texture is
polymelodic, and a score
reveals a masterly
interweaving of the
multiplicity of parts,
melodic lines and
patterns of sound. This
symphony is consummation
of all Szymanowskis
mastery in
instrumentation and
colour, and a superb
study of orchestral
polyphony. Here,
Szymanowski liberates
himself from the rigid
relations of the
functional harmonic
system. In the place of
tonal progressions, he
shifts chromatically from
one sound lane to
another, of which the
smallest units are chords
made up of tritones and
seconds, using only a
free intervallic
structure, far more
remote in Szymanowski
from the dominant
centralistic harmony then
Debussy. In style, the
Third Symphony belongs to
the neo-romantic period,
if this can be broadly
defined as including
modernistic and
expressionistic trends,
and to musical
impressionism. (based on
the Preface to the
''Works'' by Teresa Chyli
ska, PWM 1985).

The
First String Quartet in C
major, Op. 37, was
written in the autumn of
1917 and earned
Szymanowski the first
prize in a competition
organized by the Ministry
of Religious and in a
competition organized by
the Ministry of Religious
and Educational Affairs
in January 1922. The
First String Quartet is
notable for its clar and
simple construction. The
first movement is in the
formof a sonata allegro;
the Andantino semplice
(in modo iuna canzone) in
the middle is a cross
between ternary and
variation form. The final
Scherzando alla burlesca
also keeps to the form of
a sonata allegro. The
combinations and
proportions of formal
factors and the treatment
of thematic material
betray a fairly
conventional adoption of
classical models.
Similarly, the expressive
and structural use of
melodic material shows a
respect for traditional
norms. Szymanowski
created, in other works
from the same period, his
own individual type of
melodic line, which was
strongly expressive and
achieved its effect
chiefly by its tonal
qualieties; nevertheless
in this Quartet he
returns to a fluid,
cantilena-like,
symmetrically shaped
melodic line, which runs
along in broad phrases of
a concentrated,
reflective character.
Melody becomes the chief
factor in the development
of the form, both in
thematic usage and in the
application of a more
polyphonic texture.
Harmonic and tonal means
are considerably
simplified in the Quartet
[]. Most of the writing
is linear, or horizontal,
with individual treatment
of each part, the
parallel continuation of
the four sound planes,
almost a matter of
principle. The functions
of the particular
instruments in realizing
these planes are
constantly changing,which
accounts for the even
greater variedy of
tone-colour. The decision
to forego experiment with
forms and sonorities is
reflectedin the overall
approach to musical
expression. The
predominant atmosphere of
restrained emotion, quiet
lyricism and serenity is
strongly suggestive of
classical aestetic
models. (Based on Zofia
Helman Commentary on
Szymanowski Complete
Edition, Vol. B6) (II)
The ''Second String
Quartet'' represents an
interesting attempt to
revert to classical form
coupled with the new
harmonic and tonal
vocabulary worked out
previously in the
''Slopiewnie'', ''Stabat
Mater'' and ''Mazurkas''.
It was also the first
time the composer had
used folk elements in the
framework of a major
classical form. The
''Second String Quartet''
is in a special category
among Szymanowski's
works. Though it dates
from the composer was
still occupied with folk
music, it nevertheless
shows him returning to
classical models, but at
the same time using an
aesthetic of subjective
expression, which gives
the work its own
individual stamp. The
''Second String Quartet''
synthesis of the various
directions in which
Szymanowski was
attempting to develop.

Karol
Szymanowski (1882-1932)
is regarded as one of the
most important Polish
composers since Chopin.
He received his formative
musical training in
Warsaw where he lived for
many years and was also
director of the
Conservatoire and Music
Academy. His
compositional oeuvre
comprises a large variety
of styles: Szymanowski
first leaned towards
Chopin and Scriabin, then
studied Richard Strauss
and Igor Stravinsky,
finally finding a style
in which he combined
impressionism and
expressionism. His
'Mythes' for violin and
piano from 1915 fell in a
transitional period,
turning away from late
German Romanticism. They
are expressive miniatures
full of tonal refinement
and impressionist charm
and, thanks to their
accessible virtuosity,
perfect performance
