Title A name given to the resource 24 Caprices for Solo Violin Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2010-2020 Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Abraham, Immanuel T. Description An account of the resource Black composer Dr. Immanuel T. Abraham composed the "24 Caprices for Solo Violin" between 2010 and 2020. As indicated on the composer's website: "These twenty-four caprices are my collection of advanced repertoire for unaccompanied violin written between 2010 and 2020. The number of works is a tribute to four violin performer- composers of the past whose works I have studied, performed, and taught. Each wrote a collection of 24 caprices for solo violin as well. Namely, these are Pierre Gaviniès (1728-1800), Jaques Pierre Joseph Rode (1774-1830), Niccolò Paganini (1782-1840), and Jakob Dont (1815-1888). As a performer, my unaccompanied bookings accommodate a broad range of venues. Between 2010 and 2020, these venues included large rock-concert amphitheaters, yoga summits, juried doctoral-recitals, American String Teacher’s Association (ASTA) conferences, livestream events in Nigeria, live solo soundtracking for theaters and film festivals, televised events for the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS), and many more. For those engagements and many more, I wrote and performed my own music. That process immediately granted the realization of my most authentic output as a musician— my twenty-four caprices for solo violin. As such, all of them are very personal, and an ever-deepening experience to perform. There is something here for a wide range of violinists. This collection contains clear influences of the baroque (3 fugues), romanticism, impressionism, jazz, American fiddle, rock, tango, and more. These are all new, tonal, and eclectic compositions that purposefully fill gaps I experienced in the extant solo violin repertoire. Over the years several of these have been distributed individually. I have enjoyed many brilliant performances by colleagues, professors, students, and other artists. Here, for the first time, all twenty-four are presented together. I enthusiastically look forward to every performance following this edition!" Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Dr. Immanuel T.

Title A name given to the resource After L'Addio / Felt Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2014 Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Gueglio, Tomás Description An account of the resource Argentinian composer Tomás Gueglio's "After L'Addio / Felt" was commissioned in spring 2014 and composed in collaboration with Ben Melsky. As written on the composer's website, "After L'Addio / Felt (2014) is a two movement piece composed in collaboration with Ben. The premiere of this work took place in a recital in which a performance of Salvatore Sciarrino's "Addio a Trachis" preceded. After L'Addio features varying levels of referentiality and filiation with "Addio...", from literal quoting to variation, to more esoteric and personal connections. Generally speaking, After is a frantic and highly tactile piece in which different levels of friction between hands and strings become syntactically relevant. Felt appears as the textural opposite of After in that the contact between performer and instrument is reduced considerably: the right hand plays with a felt pick for the entirety of the movement and the left hand features, for the most part, harmonics.
