Summary of This Book
This collection brings together romantic pieces for violin drawn from salon and concert repertoire, featuring the characteristic blend of lyricism, momentum, and elegance associated with the great works of the period. The selection emphasizes cantilena, bow flexibility, controlled position shifts, and natural expressiveness, while offering more virtuosic moments without falling into gratuitous showmanship. Designed for students and progressing violinists (grades 4 to 7), it is suitable both for weekly practice and for preparing auditions, exams, or an encore in concert.
You will find, among others: Adoration [Borowski, Felix], Bolero [Ten Have, Willem], Gypsies' March [Rieding, Oskar], Madrigale [Drdla, Frantisek], Midnight Bells [Kreisler, Fritz], Pastorale [Rieding, Oskar], Ragamuffin [Rixner, Joe], Souvenir [Drdla, Frantisek], Un Soir A Portici [Papini, Guido]. An excellent choice to develop tone, projection of the singing line, variety of bow strokes, and a sense of "romantic" style, while maintaining the immediate pleasure of rewarding pieces.
