Got a cd with Sarah Chang and heard it for the first time. Had to get my hands on the sheet music. Very difficult. At times very similar to many of Paganinis compositions. A typical theme that gets changed into more difficult versions as you play, only in this music...

A popular music piece played by many great violinists such as Heifetz and Milstein. It's a nice music to play and listen. I feel that there are lots of opportunities in this piece to allow players exploring their tone color and richness as well as discovering their playing style...
