FAURE SONATA NO 1 IN A MAJOR OP 13 FOR VIOLIN AND PIANO

With Marked and Unmarked String Parts

Publisher: Henle
Voicing: Score and Solo Part
Format: Softcover
Composer: Gabriel Faure
Editor: Fabian Kolb

Faure composed his violin sonata in 1875/76 and in so doing opened up a new tradition for this genre in French music. In a review, Saint-Saens expressed his enthusiasm for this work by his friend and pupil: In this sonata you can find everything to tempt a gourmet: new forms, excellent modulations, unusual tone colours, and the use of unexpected rhythms. And a magic floats above everything, encompassing the whole work, causing the crowd of usual listeners to accept the unimagined audacity as something quite normal. With this work Monsieur Faure takes his place amongst the masters.
