The Compozitor Publishing House â? Saint-Petersburg offers your attention the series â??Violistâ?s Golden Repertoireâ?, edited by the distinguished musician and teacher Alexey Vladimirovich Lyudevig. The introduced series â??Violistsâ? Golden Repertoireâ? includes the substantial compositions of the world musical heritage. Carl Maria Weber (1786â??1826) â?? one of the founders of the German romanticism, wrote the first version of this composition for his brother violist Franz in 1809. The second version â??Andante and Hungarian Rondoâ? was written according to bassoonist Georg Friedrich Brandtâ?s request, whom Weberâ?s Concerto for bassoon was written before. Bassoonâ?s party in some places was remade for more comfort according to woodwindâ?s specifications. Some changes were made also in the score. The destiny of bassoon version was enviable. It was edited already in 1816 and is performed very successfully even up today. The destiny of original viola version differed. The reasons are left unknown, but this remarkable composition was performed, probably, too rarely and hadnâ?t been being edited more than for 100 years: the first sheet music appeared only in 1936 in Schott-edition. This composition appeared on the concert stage only in the second part of the 20th century. This time â??Andante and Hungarian Rondoâ? was firmly included to educational and concert repertoire.
