Summary of This Book
Samuel Dushkin (1891-1976), advisor, duo partner, and friend of Igor Stravinsky, enriched the violin repertoire with numerous transcriptions of melodies appreciated in his time. This collection brings together a true fireworks display of pieces, featuring both essential composers and more unexpected discoveries. You will find pages with exotic flavors by Paul Kirman, R. Felber, or Alexandre Sasonov, as well as a charming waltz by Max Reger, "The Brook" by Mussorgsky with very vivid colors, not to mention a foray into jazz with Gershwin's "Short Story," among others. The musical journey would be incomplete without a movement from "The Firebird" and a lullaby by Stravinsky: two essential nods to the composer's universe, enhanced by the violin arrangement. An ideal book for violinists who wish to enrich their repertoire with characterful arrangements, work on expression in contrasting styles, and have effective pieces for the stage.
