Eighteenth Variation From Rapsodie On A Theme Of Paganini

from Rapsodie on a Theme of Paganini

By Sergei Rachmaninoff

Reviewer ScooterDee did not receive a separately-printed violin part. That was a packaging mistake by the publisher. The product description says, "includes separate pull out performance part for violin." Further, clicking on the "Look inside" icon above shows the first page of the violin part. Gorgeous piece. Difficult because...

of high positions, some double stops, and particularly the need for a rich, singing tone. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amuvs0P16cA

The arrangement was exactly what we were looking for, however, it came with only the piano part. I thought I was ordering the violin part too. It was advertised as "for Violin and Piano." Yes, the violin part was included IN the piano part, above the piano staffs, but not...

separately. SO the violinist has to either look over the pianists shoulder, or order another copy, or illegally make a copy, none of which a sheet music company should be promoting, not to mention the frustration and disappointment when we opened the package. This was an unwelcome surprise. I'll be more careful when ordering from these guys in the future.
