Violin
Concerto is scored for a
Classical-sized
orchestra, with the
addition of a harp and
celeste, and lasts around
17 minutes. Although the
work sets out to explore
the lyrical
characteristics of the
solo instrument, it is
only gradually that the
violin finds its full,
lyric voice, and thence,
as the work progresses, a
more dominant role. This,
in one sense, is the
'journey' of the piece.
The work's
straightforward formal
scheme consists of three
movements (roughly
fast-slow-fast) framed by
a reflective introduction
and epilogue. However,
these formal divisions
exist within a single,
unbroken arc. Such an
overall symmetrical shape
places the slow Arioso
(itself divided into
three subsections) at the
midpoint, sandwiched
between the two Allegro
movements. The dramaturgy
of the piece centers on a
twofold search. First
there is the ongoing
pursuit to recapture the
simple melodic material
stated by the solo violin
- accompanied by thar
harp's bass register -
during the opening bars.
Whilst aspects of this
melody are invoked
frequently throughout
(especially in the violin
cadenza which closes the
Arioso movement), it is
only with the final and
most important climax of
the work that the melody
appears again in its
complete form, now
accompanied by violent,
orchestral stabs. The
second search is for a
tonal resting place, the
arrival of which is
delayed until the close
of the epilogue. The
original version of the
Violin Concerto,
commissioned by the
Netherlands Chamber
Orchestra, was premiered
in Amsterdam in February
2012 with Gordan Nikolic
as soloist. The present,
revised version was
created for Barnabas
Kelemen and the
Halle.

Ruders
writes: My second
concerto for violin and
orchestra is a 'reverse'
cousin of Polydrama the
cello concerto. The
former starts out
extremely slow and speeds
up gradually and the
latter progresses in
exactly the opposite way,
but whereas the cello
concerto is composed as
one, uninterrupted
stretch, the violin
concerto is formally
completely different:
there are 4 movements,
each of them combined via
a 'ritornello', a
solo-cadenza which
appears 4 times (the
works conclude with a
solo) in almost the
shape, i.e. the length
varies from time to
time.

The three
movements reflect
classical romantic
concertos in not only
their structure but also
their character. The
relations between soloist
and orchestra echo the
dramatic composition of
traditional concertos
besides providing a
significant role for wind
and percussion
instruments in tonality,
which creates a specific
tone familiar from
László Dubrovay's
earlier compositions. His
Violin Concerto No. 2,
completed in April 2011,
is dedicated to the
internationally noted
young Hungarian
violinist, Kristóf
Baráti, whose
extraordinary performing
skills inspired the
flexible melodiousness
and virtuoso perfection
of the themes.

Tarkmann, Andreas
N.
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.

Concerto (only the
