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.

Songs are
part of the childhood.
This collection aims to
offer a variety of songs
for string ensembles,
such as young string
orchestras or string
classes. Included are
older and newer songs,
songs of various origins,
and songs for different
occasions and with themes
ranging from animals to
seasons and times of day
to tongue-in-cheek scary
subjects.Taking up the
motif of diversity in
their own way, the
six-part arrangements are
not confined to the usual
cadence harmonies and
accompaniment forms,
There is something
special to discover in
each of the songs. Small
vignettes with lyrics to
them are found in the
parts, and can be taken
up in rehearsals and
lessons.The songs begin
with fingering positions
and bowing techniques
that are usually learned
at the beginning of
lessons, then gradually
increase in difficulty,
though the booklet as a
whole is set at the
elementary level.
Suggestions for
improvisation and pieces
for practicing certain
requirements round out
the booklet. Special
emphasis is placed on
playing together - true
to the title: Together on
Strings!

Pr
ogramme Note:
As
a young professional
player in the 1960s, my
work as a double bassist
with chamber ensembles
and small orchestras took
me all over the world.
This presented an
unparalleledopportunity
to scour libraries and
archives wherever I went.
Long before the advent of
the photocopier and
e-mail, research was far
more challenging than it
is today. Eastern Europe
was particularly
difficult to access,
withmanycollections kept
under lock and key for
all but a few hours a
week. One quickly found
colleagues who were keen
to share information
gleaned in passing, even
though they had no
specific interest in
one's own
particularspecialism (it
is so often the
peripheral topics that
fascinate as much as the
main subject under
investigation, and one
can quickly be
side-tracked into
political and social
issues that have only
slender bearing on the
job inhand!).
In
the early 1970s James
Brown, the then
sub-principal oboist of
the English Chamber
Orchestra with whom I was
working at the time,
stumbled across a small
collection of double bass
manuscripts at the
RoyalDanish State Library
in Copenhagen. They were
by Franz Anton Leopold
Keÿper (b. c.1756, d.
Copenhagen 7 June 1815),
a double bassist of Dutch
origin who worked as
principal of the Royal
Chapel Orchestra in
Copenhagen.Keÿper's son
was the bassoonist Franz
Jacob August Keÿper
(1792-1859). The
collection included a
number of concertos, some
chamber music, and
various naïve fragments.
Although hardly the work
of a Mozart or Haydn,the
style is characteristic
of the period. For an
instrument such as the
double bass, whose 18th
century solo repertoire
is largely written for
tunings that are no
longer in everyday use,
Keÿper's music is easily
approachablein its.

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

Have Fun
with the Double Bass is a
unique publication that
adds joy and variety to
learning the instrument.
It includes many songs
that children will be
familiar with and can
sing along to, thus
making practising easier
and more fun. Gerd Reinke
has paid great attention
to detail as he covers
the essential basic
skills for a budding
double-bass player such
as rhythmic exercises,
posture and technical
terms. The short
exercises can be
accompanied by the
teacher on the
double-bass or the piano
and make the players
curious about many more
'bass-related' journeys
of discovery. May the
young bassists do well
and enjoy this method!
