Seitz, Fritz (Friedrich) - Student Concerto Number 2 in G Major, Opus 13 - for Violin and Piano - Bärenreiter
Friedrich Seitz (1848-1918) was a professional German violinist and composer during the romantic era. He was concertmaster of the orchestra in Magdeburg, and later leader of the orchestra at the Court in Dessau. The beautiful melodies in his concertos offer young players the chance to use their bow technique for musical expression.
The Student Concerto No. 2 in G can be introduced after the completion of Volume 3 of the Sassmannshaus Tradition Early Start on the Violin. It corresponds with Violinmasterclass.com Grade Level 2 and ASTA Rating Beginner (1-2).
Skills required for this work:
- Left Hand: 1st position, basic double stops
- Right Hand: Detache, Legato, Spiccato
- Rhythms: Eighth Notes, Sixteenth Notes, Thirty Second Notes, Dotting Rhythms, Triplets
This concerto requires that students can comfortably play in first position. The fast passages require good coordination between the left and right hand. The student must have proficiency in detache and legato techniques. In addition, elementary spiccato or brush strokes are required.
To practice right and left hand coordination, the student can play simple scales in first position. Each scale note is repeated four times, then - keeping the tempo of each stroke identical - each note is repeated three times, then two times, and then the student can play one note per stroke. The speed of these exercises should be gradually increased.
