Published by Mark O'Connor Musik International (A0.1040061).Menuhin Caprice (for unaccompanied violin) MO177 Violin Solo Music by Mark O’Connor 9 pages - 7:00 minutes in length Menuhin Caprice for unaccompanied violin by Mark O’Connor was commissioned by the 2020 International Menuhin Violin Competition. It was a compulsory piece for the semi-final round. Receiving great interest to all of his caprices from performers, teachers and students of the violin, O’Connor has contributed music here which will challenge even the most gifted virtuoso. O’Connor’s caprices, like Nicolo Paganini’s and Pietre Locatelli’s, push the violin into a new direction, musically and technically, furthering the possibilities of the instrument. “Menuhin Caprice” features demanding techniques which are desirable for study purposes, and at the same time, are accessible to concert audiences. The violinist will find passages containing complex rhythms, broken chord arpeggios, various spicatto and double-stopped runs. In addition to these specialized skills, the violinist must master the works’ driving and aggressive rhythms in order to perfect the performance of them. Appropriate for the advanced student but isolated selections could be valuable for the intermediate. Original music printed from the composer’s manuscripts.
