Description:
This is a very difficult piece to perform: although there are no high level technical skills needed, the emotional power and the intensity while playing is the main key of this performance. If played academically this piece will fall. You have to feel what you are playing, otherwise it will not work because within ten fingers, you are supposed to hold a concert originally written for a wind orchestra and a violin solo. You cannot face the wideness of timbres and sounds presented in the full version, but you can convey the same – or even stronger - feelings if you are able to reach the Essence of the music I have written.
Do not follow the score, participate rather to the tragic flow this music is spreading all around. Every note is painful, even when it describes Beauty.
Luca N. Stradivari
