Summary of This Sheet Music
Designed as a collection of concert pieces for viola, this program ideally complements the learning offered by "Sassmannshaus Early Start on the Viola." It brings together 14 pieces intended to provide violists with genuine recital material: expressive, immediately musical pages that develop tone, bowing technique, intonation, and phrasing. The value of this selection also lies in its progressive organization : each piece prepares for the next, facilitating regular practice and the building of a solid repertoire.
The content covers a rich stylistic spectrum, ranging from the poetry of a lullaby to the more virtuosic drive of brilliant pages. Among the cornerstones of the collection, two works by Georg Eduard Goltermann serve as technical and musical benchmarks, with an accessible "Andante religioso," followed by more demanding pieces such as "Adagio a Tarantella." It also includes staples like Fauré's "Sicilienne," Dvo?ák's "Humoresque," and several Notturni by Kalliwoda, offering an ideal repertoire for working on expression, color, and style. The edition highlights the work of Kurt Sassmannshaus, violinist and violist, recognized for his pedagogical commitment and the continuity of the Sassmannshaus approach in string teaching.
