Wieniawski, Henryk - Polonaise Brillante In D Major Op 4 - for Violin and Piano - edited by Lichtenberg - G Schirmer

Like the mazurka, the other dance of Polish origin that Wieniawski turned to for inspiration, the polonaise is in triple meter. Unlike the sometimes-frenzied mazurka, however, a polonaise is usually a bit more stately. Wieniawski wrote two pieces in the polonaise form; this Polonaise Brillante in D Major, Op. 4, is probably the more famous of the two. It exhibits plenty of vigor (and plenty of flashy violin "frills"), in addition to some lovely melodic material, making it a beloved showpiece, and a favorite among violinists. Note: this piece should not be confused with the Polonaise Brillante in A Major, Op. 21.

This edition for violin and piano is edited by Leopold Lichtenberg. Published by G. Schirmer, distributed by Hal Leonard.

Difficulty: ASTA grade 5
