Product Description -
Long before his E minor concerto from 1845, Felix Mendelssohn wrote his first violin concerto: as a 13-year-old in his parents' home in Berlin. There were two sources from which the young Felix drew for this work from 1822: the art of his admired violin teacher Eduard Rietz and the music of Johann Sebastian Bach.Mendelssohn's early preference for concertos and concert pieces in the key of D minor came from the latter's D minor piano concerto, which he played with great enthusiasm. He wrote three D minor concertos alone between 1820 and 1823, and another - his 2nd piano concerto - in 1837. In all of these works, but especially in the early D minor violin concerto with string orchestra, the aSturm und Dranga of Bach's D -minor concerto, his motor skills and toccata-like passages leave their mark.Mendelssohn's early work is also a memorial to the Berlin violinist Eduard Rietz, who died in 1832 at the age of 29. The Rode student was the young Felix's violin teacher and friend, as well as the founder of the Berlin Philharmonic Society and, as concertmaster, the driving force behind the so-called aSunday musica in the Mendelssohn house. For this Sunday concert series, half of Berlin made a pilgrimage to the banking family's garden house at Leipziger Strae 3 - exactly where the German Federal Council meets today. They didn't move in until 1825, but Rietz probably also played his student Felix's violin concerto there. It survives in two versions: an early two-movement version and the final three-movement version that appears in this edition by Yehudi Menuhin. The first movement with Bach's rhythms is followed by a lyrical Andante full of Mendelssohn's sound magic and a Rondo in Gavotte rhythm in which Rietz was able to shine in the style of Spohr and RodeViolinkonzert d-moll MWV O3 Ausgabe fr Violine und KlavierLange vor seinem e-Moll-Konzert aus dem Jahre 1845 hat Felix Mendelssohn sein erstes Violinkonzert geschrieben: als 13-jhriger im Berliner Elternhaus. Es waren zwei Quellen, aus denen der junge Felix bei diesem Werk von 1822 schpfte: die Kunst seines bewunderten Geigenlehrers Eduard Rietz und die Musik Johann Sebastian Bachs.Von des letzteren d-Moll-Klavierkonzert, das er mit groer Begeisterung spielte, rhrte Mendelssohns frhe Vorliebe fr Konzerte und Konzertstcke in der Tonart d-Moll her. Allein drei d-Moll-Konzerte schrieb er zwischen 1820 und 1823, ein weiteres a sein 2. Klavierkonzert a 1837. In all diesen Werken, besonders aber im frhen d-Moll-Violinkonzert mit Streichorchester haben der aSturm und Dranga von Bachs d-Moll-Konzert, seine Motorik und toccatenhaften Passagen Spuren hinterlassen.Mendelssohns Frhwerk ist zudem ein Denkmal fr den Berliner Geiger Eduard Rietz, der bereits 1832 im Alter von 29 Jahren verstarb. Der Rodeschler war des jungen Felix Geigenlehrer und Freund, daneben Begrnder der Berliner Philharmonischen Gesellschaft und als Konzertmeister treibende Kraft der sogenannten aSonntagsmusikena im Hause Mendelssohn. Zu dieser sonntglichen Konzertreihe pilgerte halb Berlin ins Gartenhaus der Bankiersfamilie auf der Leipziger Strae 3 a exakt dorthin, wo heute der Deutsche Bundesrat tagt. Erst 1825 zog man ein, doch drfte Rietz auch dort das Violinkonzert seines Schlers Felix gespielt haben. Es ist in zwei Versionen erhalten: einer zweistzigen Frhfassung und der endgltigen dreistzigen, die in dieser Ausgabe von Yehudi Menuhin erscheint. Auf den Kopfsatz mit Bachschen Rhythmen folgen ein lyrisches Andante voll Mendelssohnschen Klangzaubers und ein Rondo im Gavotterhythmus, in dem Rietz im Stil eines Spohr und Rode brillieren durfte.
