Product Description
Violin
part only. 15 pgs.(Piano accomp. 35 pgs. Sold separately SO.876519)
Four intermediate to advanced violin solos for instruction and
performance. With piano accompaniments. Each of the four pieces is available
separately on SMP.
(1) AMBIENTE
DE TABERNA. (SO.876359) A difficult
recital showpiece with dramatic Spanish themes evoking the "ambience of a
tavern" and its flamenco dancers.
(2) ORENSKI
IN BUCHAREST. (SO.876509) Of intermediate difficulty, the piece
honors a Rumanian refugee who created a leading novelties business in the U.S.
and introduced the composer to vexillology-flag study-as a hobby.
(3) TO VODKA.
(SO.876513) Of intermediate difficulty, this set of variations becomes progressively more hectic
and ends with a burp. In an otherwise serious recital, it can serve as an
entertaining interlude. But not for playing while inebriated.
(4) O AMIGO
DA ONÇA. (SO.876507) A difficult concert showpiece. Modernistic, it
evokes the Brazilian jungle and its tiger, the onça. The title refers to
a classic Brazilian anecdote: A man is explaining how to escape from a tiger
and his friend keeps presenting obstacles to be overcome, to which the man in
frustration finally exclaims, "Hey! Are you my friend or the friend of
the tiger?!" The piece has a few obstacles of its own.
"Your
compositions are charming and melodic, useful both for training and
performance."-Thomas Lindsay, former concertmaster, Virginia Beach Symphony and
New Jersey Pops.
