Concertino in Hungarian Style in A Minor, Op. 21 - Violin and Piano

Oskar Rieding’s Concertino op. 21 uses 1 st and 3 rd position exclusively. Hungarian echoes in the Andante sostenuto on the high and low strings of the violin and extensive semiquaver (sixteenth-note) passages in the Allegro moderato require basic dexterity in the left hand combined with frequent use of accented bowing in the right hand.

The edition contains a solo violin part and a piano reduction for the accompanist.

Editor is Kurt Sassmannshaus, the internationally-renowned violin teacher and co-author of the Sassmannshaus violin school tradition. His foreword introduces this little gem and includes tips for successful first concerts.
