Violin - difficult - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q42520 Per violino solo. Composed by Krzysztof Penderecki. This edition: Sheet music. Violin Library. Downloadable. Duration 13 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q42520. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q42520). In his choice of the title La Follia, Krzysztof Penderecki recalls the tradition of virtuosic variations on a Sarabande originating from the Baroque period. The theme is introduced first in pizzicato, then arco, and is developed in nine variations which exploit the full range of playing techniques on the violin. The breakneck speed of double stopping passages, artificial harmonics, extensive melodic arcs, sparkling arpeggios over all four strings, flying spiccato, and broken chords above the ostinato theme make high musical and technical demands on the performer.Mit der Wahl des Titels La Follia stellt Krzysztof Penderecki sich in die seit der Barockzeit wirkende Tradition der kunstvoll-virtuosen Variation eines Sarabanden-Themas. Neunmal verarbeitet er das Motiv, dabei alle spieltechnischen Möglichkeiten der Geige einsetzend.
