As part of Scarecrow Press's Music Finders series, this go-to
reference source provides pertinent information about the standard
repertoire of works heard today in the great concert halls and
recorded by the most prominent professionals. Drawing on extensive
research of musical programs performed on the world's stages,
Nardolillo selects only those works performed and recorded by great
performers and regularly studied in conservatories by students of
leading pedagogues. Organized alphabetically by composer, each
entry in The Canon of Violin Literature includes the title, date of
composition, date and performer of premiere, key, duration,
instrumentation, and movements of the work. In addition, entries
include brief notes offering historical, technical, and performance
information crucial to study of the work. Finally, each entry
offers information on the publishers, editions, and editors of the
sheet music, concluding with a list of several recordings by famous
artists and recommended books for further information about the
piece. Appendixes include a chronological listing of the works, a
grouping by genre, an index of piece titles, an index of
performers, and a bibliography of other reference books for
violinists. In addition to hard-to-find information on premieres,
commissions, and editions, The Canon of Violin Literature supplies
performers and teachers with the name of the violinist who provided
fingerings and bowings for each edition, as well as accurate dates
for when the work was edited. The Canon of Violin Literature is for
performers of violin repertoire; private teachers and college
professors in need of a guide to help them assign appropriate works
for students' recitals, juries, and competitions; and chamber
series directors, musicologists, and editors planning concert
seasons, creating programs, and writing liner notes for recordings.
