Hermann Schroeder (1904-1984) studied composition with Walter Braunfels and Heinrich Lemacher and conducting with Hermann Abendroth. He made a name for himself as professor at the Music Academy of Cologne, as author of musical-theoretical textbooks and as composer of major organ works. The Quartet Sonata (1971), published for the first time, is, with regard to form, a clearly structured concert piece of moderate modernism with a fast first movement in a concise sonata form, an expressive slow movement and a finale full of brio like a gigue. A rewarding piece for concerts and competitions.

Herm ann Schroeder (1904-1984) is one of the best-known German organ composers of the 20th century. His late piano work Funf Charaktere (1974) is based less on contrapuntal and neo-classical composition techniques (like the two early piano sonatas) but rather on the tonal possibilities of the piano. The five movements which live on the changes of different tempos and emotions bear titles that refer to the mood and the character of the music: Capriccio - Legende - Scherzando - Elegie - Burleske. Thus, the pieces are not far away from being Romantic character pieces. Funf Charaktere is published as printed edition for the first time, based on the autograph left in the composer's estate.

The “Easy Concert Pieces” series for Violin and Piano is intended for tuition purposes and are particularly suitable for performanceat auditions and school concerts, for competitions, examinations - and for music making at home too, of course. Recordings and backing tracks for all the pieces are included on the accompanying Audio-Download. Volume 3 (intermediate) requires familiarity withthe first four positions. Besides well-known works such as the famous Air by Bach, the Largo from Handel's opera “Xerxes” and a movement from Vivaldi's Four Seasons, there are rewarding concerto and sonata movements by Küchler and Fiocco, as well as less familiar Romantic compositions by Rieding and Trowell. Modern music is represented in two lovely pieces by Hermann Schroeder, also inspired by the theme of the seasons. Young violinists will enjoy the four pop pieces that round off the selection.
