A
violinist herself, Lauren
Bernofsky has described
SONATA FOR SOLO VIOLIN as
drawn from
autobiographical
inspiration, including
gestures from Bachâ??s
beloved Partita in E
Major. Bernofsky opens
with a Preludio movement
whose references to Bach
may be disguised, but
they are surely lurking.
The second movement is
lusciously contrapuntal
with the idiomatic
finesse of a violinist
composing for her own
instrument, while
musically journaling the
emotional pain of living
through 2020. The third
and final movement is
aptly marked
â??white-hot,â? and
the music certainly
is. My SONATA FOR SOLO
VIOLIN was commissioned
by violinist Megan Healy
as part of The Maud
Powell Project, which
celebrated the 100th
anniversary of the
ratification of the 19th
Amendment. The project
included the creation of
five new works for solo
violin inspired by and
dedicated to the memory
of pioneering American
violinist Maud Powell
(1867-1920). Healy
premiered the sonata on
May 8, 2021 at PianoForte
Studios in Chicago.Among
the works Powell most
frequently performed in
her recitals was the
â??Preludioâ?
movement from Bachâ??s E
major Partita, and I
decided to refer to that
music in my own first
movement, also titled
â??Preludio.â? The
beginning subtly reflects
Bachâ??s opening
three-note motive,
wherein the music dips
down a semitone and then
comes back up. This
melodic material returns
throughout the movement
in various forms. I also
refer to Bachâ??s
sixteenth-note dominated
texture, and the gesture
in the third measure,
which outlines a perfect
fifth and then fills it
in with notes that
alternate between a scale
and a pedal tone. The
corresponding passage in
my piece occurs in the
same place, measure 3.
Apart from these
references to Bach, my
sonata is much more
modern sounding,
especially in its
chromatic character.I was
still thinking of
Bachâ??s solo violin
writing while composing
the second movement,
particularly the
polyphonic nature of the
slow movements, where the
melodic interest moves
around between the
voices. Emotionally, I
wanted my movement to
reflect the acute sadness
I had been experiencing
over the political and
social situation in the
United States as I wrote
the piece. I realized
that this is a
historically noteworthy
time in U.S. history,
marked not only by
political unrest, but
also by a challenge to
the very values that I
consider essential to
what makes a person
fundamentally human. I
wanted to create a record
of that pain in my
music.The final movement
is marked
â??White-hot.â? It is
imbued with a relentless,
passionate intensity.
Wanting again to reflect
aspects of our own time,
I included glissandi that
refer to rock music,
specifically the
â??fall-offsâ? I
frequently hear played by
electric guitarists. I
borrowed from another
(completely different)
musical tradition as
well, one that is
near-and-dear to my
heart: Klezmer. Klezmer
(Eastern European Jewish
folk music) is
characterized in part by
scales colored by
augmented seconds, and is
often performed by solo
instrumentalists who
improvise embellishments
like quick grace notes.
The second, more lyrical
theme in this movement is
my nod to Klezmer
style.While this piece is
an homage to Maud Powell,
I also think of it as my
own musical
autobiography, as it
combines some of my
favorite aspects of
music, and is played on
my own instrument.

1. Sidestep
Reel - In 19th
Century America, the
Afro-Celtic fiddle style
was the centerpiece of
many a dance. Reels and
hornpipes were very
popular forms. Their
repetitive, even-metered
rhythms were easy and fun
to dance to, and their
infectious singable
melodies stayed in the
mind and on the tongue.
More adventurous fiddlers
were given to syncopating
on these forms by
accenting off beats and
by embellishing melodies
with oddmetered note
groupings. Syncopation is
a fundamental rhythmic
attitude of jazz and this
movement is a celebration
of that art. The melodic
language is a home-grown
concoction of commonality
between traditional reels
and hornpipes and the
Baroque, Ragtime and the
quartal concepts of
Modern Jazz. 2. As the
Wind Goes - the
wistful late night song
of a lullabye, a campfire
song, a ballad...a
spiritual. It is sung as
if on the wind, yearning
to experience once again
that which will only ever
again live as memory. 3.
Jones’ Jig -
the Irish Jig, the
African 6/8 bell pattern,
the shuffle rhythm of
jazz and the drum style
of Elvin Jones all play
around with the
relationship of 3 in the
time-space of 2. The
juxtaposition,
negotiation and
reconciliation of these
opposing rhythmic
perspectives create
interesting musical
relationships all over
the globe. 4.
Nicola’s
Strathspey - In the
traditional Strathspey,
improvised
embellishments,
syncopated dotted rhythms
and the use of space
between notes create
expectation, momentum and
surprise. These same
elements and their effect
on the listener are the
same in the blues. It
seems like a natural
marriage. 5. Bye Bye
Breakdown - This is
good ol’, Saturday
night barn dance, hoedown
fiddling. It revels in
the whining cry of open
double stops, in all
types of musical
onomatopoeia from train
sounds to animal calls to
country whistling, and in
the steady 2/4 rhythm
that is as basic as
walking. The harmonic
framework of several
popular fiddle and folk
tunes provide a practical
grid for the cutting of
challenging melodic and
rhythmic figures. It is
designed to tire fiddler
and dancers out. Then we
stomp our way home in
varying states of delight
and disrepair.Solo Violin

Preface: Zsigmond
Szathmary.
In
ancient times, language
and music were already
regarded as an
inseparable unit.
Homer’s epic
poems, for example, were
sung, and in the highly
developed art of
rhetoric, words were used
to communicate reason,
while music spoke to the
soul. Since
Monteverdi’s time,
musical delineation of
text has become even more
important: rhetoric terms
such as
“exclamatioâ€,
“saltus
duriusculusâ€, and
“climax†were
applied to music in order
to render the emotional
content of the text in
even more expressive
ways.
Szathmà ry
used this compositional
method as a model when he
drafted his work for
violin
“Rhetoricaâ€.
He wrote about this work:
“My aim was to
instill a “speaking
quality†into even
the tiniest musical
elements in order to
allow for the music to
become a powerful
narration of the moments
experienced in a human
life with all its highs
and lows –
entirely without the use
of words.â€

Crazy
Train was co-written by
one of Mark Wood's main
influences and favorite
guitar players, Randy
Rhoads, a neo-classical
rock guitar player. When
Wood discovered him,
Rhoads was fully
entrenched in the
standard rock/blues
style, yet had wonderful
control of the flourish
and esthetic of classical
music in his playing. The
influence was perfect for
Mark Wood, who was an
up-and-coming rock
violinist at the
time.

Appalachian
fiddle music, based on
the musical traditions of
the people who settled in
the mountainous regions
of the southeastern
United States, is
widely-known and played
throughout North America
and parts of Europe
because of its complex
rhythms, its catchy
melodies, and its
often-ancient-sounding
stylistic qualities. The
authors explore the lives
and music of 43 of the
classic Appalachian
fiddlers who were active
during the first half of
the 20th century. Some of
them were recorded
commercially in the
1920s, such as Gid
Tanner, Fiddlin? John
Carson, and Charlie
Bowman. Some were
recorded by folklorists
from the Library of
Congress, such as William
Stepp, Emmett Lundy, and
Marion Reece. Others were
recorded informally by
family members and
visitors, such as John
Salyer, Emma Lee
Dickerson, and Manco
Sneed. All of them played
throughout most of their
lives and influenced the
growth and stylistic
elements of fiddle music
in their regions. Each
fiddler has been given a
chapter with a biography,
several tune
transcriptions, and tune
histories. To show the
richness of the music,
the authors make a
special effort to show
the musical elements in
detail, but also
acknowledge that nothing
can take the place of
listening. Many of the
classic recordings used
in this book can be found
on the web, allowing you
to hear and read the
music together.

The piece
was composed at the
request of violinist
Eszter Perenyi, my
colleague at the Ferenc
Liszt Academy of Music,
and was several times
amond the optional pieces
of the yearly violin
competition for students.
It was inspired by the
famous 63rd poem of
Catullus that tells the
story of Attis: the hero
of the Greek mythology
arrives at the Mount Ida
in Frygia, to the
invitation of the goddess
Cybele, and becomes her
lover. The Gallas,
certitude priests of
Cybele chase him into
delirious dance, by the
end of which he castrates
himself. On waking from
his paralysed dream he
entreats in vain for his
virility and freedom to
Cybele, he will remain
servant of the goddess
for eternity. My work
tells the story in four
parts: 1) Attis' ecstasy
2) Dance of the Gallas 3)
Attis' dream 4) Attis'
entreaty. The Catullian
galliambic metric that
first appears in the
'prologue' of the piece,
becomes the
organisational principle
of almost all musical
aspects of it.

Composed
during the summer of 1964
at the Aspen Music
Festival, performed by
students under the
direction of Leonard
Slatkin. The composer
writes: “The first
movement has much the
feel of a Mozart string
divertimento. The
'distant relative' of the
second movement was
Richard Wagner, and there
are hidden quotations of
his work throughout. The
short scherzo movement,
which leads to a solo
lament, eventually lands
upon a light-hearted
rondo, unashamedly in G
major, a compositional
ploy that drew criticism
in its time.â€.
