Ausgabe für Violine und Klavier.
Among the best of Jean Sibelius’
oeuvre are his 1917 compositions The Humoresques. This fabulous and
charming concerto was divided into two groups for publication, Opus 87
and Opus 89, and demonstrates his sublime skill with the Violin.
He
uses a considerably smaller Orchestra accompaniment to the Violin in
the second group but maintains the subtlety of depth and texture. The
opening bars of the Fifth Humoresque act as a continuation of the minor
tonality that dominated the previous two pieces, but the music soon
reverts into a warmer major mood. Op. 89 No.3 is the highlight of this
group, and one of Sibelius' most immediately compelling creations.
Komponist: Jean Sibelius.
