Etudes Vol. 1 Nos. 1 3
For Violin Solo
Widmann's Etudes For Violin Solo Are In The Tradition Of Paganini's Capricen Or The Piano Etudes By Chopin, Liszt And Ligeti: Artistically Autonomous Concert Pieces On One Specific Technical Problem Each, To Be Performed Individually Or In A Cyclical Sequence. The Composer Wrote About The Present Volume 1: ' 'Etude' Is Taken Literally Here As A Compositional Exercise, As A Restricted Experimental Ground, But Also As A Violinistic Study On A Certain Playing Technique: For Example, I. Is Some Sort Of 'Sounding Out' Of The Instrument's Resonance Possibilities, Ii. Goes On A Journey From A Three Part Chorale To Spirited, Unbridled Virtuosity, And Iii. Mainly Is A Left Hand Etude.'
