Mendelssohn'
s Violin Concerto op. 64,
is a key work of the 19th
century, adhering to the
classical style of
Beethoven while pointing
the way to the romantic
ethos of Brahms. It has
long been known that
Mendelssohn performed the
work with three soloists
in succession: Ferdinand
David, who worked closely
with the composer during
its composition and
played it at the
premiere; the 'child
prodigy' Joseph Joachim;
and Hubert Leonard, a
young Belgian virtuoso
about whom little is
known.
As proof
sheets for the Violin
Concerto in E minor were
long considered lost, it
could be described as
somewhat of a sensation
when proofs for the solo
violin part resurfaced
together with a letter
from Mendelssohn to
Leonard.
The
letter informs us that
the composer invited
Leonard to his home in
Frankfurt in order to
make his acquaintance. It
was already known that
Mendelssohn had given
proof sheets to David;
now we know that he also
gave some to
Leonard.
The
recently discovered
proofs reveal how Leonard
played the concerto with
Mendelssohn on that
memorable evening in
February 1845. Besides
containing bowing marks
and fingering, they also
show how Leonard executed
shifts of position and
where he employed open
strings. Furthermore
modifications made to
dynamic markings and
additional legato bowing
are shown.
It is
safe to assume that all
of this was done with
Mendelssohn's approval.
That the young violinist
made a positive
impression on the
composer is confirmed in
the latter's
correspondence following
their joint performance.
Mendelssohn is full of
praise for Leonard's
playing and offers to
lend his support in
finding employment in
Germany.
This
revised edition of the
Mendelssohn Violin
Concerto (only the
orchestral parts remain
unchanged) includes a
separate booklet on
performance practice.
The editor, Clive
Brown, is an acknowledged
expert on Romantic
performance
practice.

The
Not-Doings of an
Insomniac - Partita for
Solo Double Bass with
spoken texts - was
premiered by Robert Black
at the International
Society of Bassist
Convention at the Griffin
Concert Hall in Fort
Collins, Colorado. The
Not-Doings of an
Insomniac developed as a
result of Philip Glass's
frequent travels to
unfamiliar cities and
different time-zones,
changes that often bring
on bouts of insomnia.
While on a trip in Europe
in 2015, Glass decided to
turn these redundant
waking hours into
something useful, and one
of the results is this
Partita for Solo Double
Bass, written for Robert
Black of Bang on a Can
All-Stars fame. The piece
is written in seven
movements, each with its
own title: Not Dreaming,
Tasting, Smelling,
Hearing, Seeing, Touching
respectively, and
finishing with Not
Beginning. Not Ending.
What raises this set into
something atmospheric and
theatrical are the poems
in between each movement.
These are by Glass's
friends or associates,
and the texts by Lou
Reed, John Cale, Laurie
Anderson, Yoko Ono, David
Byrne, Leonard Cohen,
Patti Smith and Arthur
Russell are read on the
recording of this work by
Robert Black.

In
Book 2 we progress from
the first position up and
beyond the half, second
and third positions to
reach the second high
position. Shifting is
also obviously treated in
detail. New bowing
techniques such as
spiccato and col legno
are on the program, as
well as typical
double-bass parts from
orchestral works of
famous composers and
information concerning
the instrument. This runs
like a red thread through
every chapter. In
addition, students can
indulge in jazz bass
playing through their
first jazz
standards.Kontrabass Book
2 offers a wealth of
material for the
progressing young
bassist. Although the
text is in German, most
of the technical
requirements are easy to
understand. (David Heyes
