Classical Violin Trios is an easy-to-play collection for three violins, or two violins and cello. The pieces in this book were all originally written specifically for violins. Many are well known, but some are less familiar. Included are works by Mozart, Bach, Haydn, Corelli, Mazas, and others. In some cases, the optional cello part has been adapted from the original to give the music a better overall sound. This fabulous collection provides ideal material in the 1st position which can be used alongside any learning method, and makes playing with a trio very enjoyable. All pieces in position 1. MORE»

In the Viennese classical era a divertimento was a light, multi-movement instrumental piece of cheerful, dance-like character. Alongside Mozart, it was above all Hayydn who mastered the art of composing light, entertaining divertimentos of the finest quality. As so often with Haydn, the authenticity of of the divertimentos for piano, two violins and violoncello attributed to him is not always certain. The present edition offers the five verifiably authentic works of the catalog group Hob. XIV in its main section, and in the appendix the Divertimento Hob. XIV:C2, which in all likelihood was composed by Haydn. All six – predominantly in C major – are easy to play and thus well suited for domestic music-making. The piano dominates, while the strings provide sonority. For our Urtext edition, including the detailed preface, we were able to engage Haydn scholar Horst Walter.

Around 1800 Beethoven seems to have completely distanced himself from chamber music for wind. In letters to his publisher we read that he did not have any particular regard for his Septet op. 20 and the Sextet op. 71; furthermore, he did not write any new works for wind ensembles. By contrast, he ennobled his Trio op.87 – originally for two oboes and cor anglais – by making an additional version for two violins and viola. This charming work is published following the Urtext in the Beethoven Complete Edition and is a welcome addition to the repertoire for these instruments for which a great deal has not otherwise been composed.

Following the first two volumes of Haydn'S string trios in a study score (HN 9424 und 9425), we are now publishing the third and final one. Although Haydn is said to have composed about 60 string trios, most of them must be discounted for source-critical and stylistic reasons. The eighteen trios which definitely lay claim to authenticity were published in volumes 1 and 2. The third volume contains eight trios attributed to Haydn, although his authorship cannot be proven. In addition to the Urtext edition (HN 628) these charming works are now also available in a handy score format. The musical text is that of the Haydn Complete Edition and it has been complemented by a new and informative preface by the Haydn scholar Sonja Gerlach.

The Belgian composer, conductor and violinist Eugène Ysaÿe (1858-1931) was among the great virtuosos of his time. His trio “Le Londres” was originally conceived as a sonata for two violins for his pupil Queen Elisabeth of Belgium. As it was technically too demanding, Ysaÿe rearranged it for two violins and viola.
