Partita for Solo Violin (2011) by Thomas Oboe Lee Violin Solo - Digital Sheet Music
By Thomas Oboe LeeProgram note: In the spring of 2011 I had nothing to do after I finished composing an all-male a cappella sextet on the Latin text"O Magnum Mysterium." And I wasn’t quite ready to begin work on my next project, "Symphony No. 8 … City of Light." A year ago Irina Muresanu premiered my "Violin Concerto" (2009) in Jordan Hall with Maestro Max Hobart and the Boston Civic Symphony. I was thrilled with her performance of the work. So I thought, how about a set of solo pieces for the violin for her as a token of my appreciation for her artistry? Anytime one thinks of writing for solo violin, one has to face up to the monumental Partitas and Sonatas for unaccompanied violin by Johann Sebastian Bach. My Partita, similar to Bach’s in the use of the baroque suite as narrative and structure, is in seven movements. 1. Fantasia 2. Allemande 3. Courante 4. Sarabande 5. Gavotte/Minuet 6. Air 7. Gigue Enjoy!!!! Audio link. Copy and paste the URL link into your browser.https://thomasoboelee.bandcamp.com/album/partita-for-solo-violin-2011Video link: https://youtu.be/9NE8jM6tVyQ
