Solo Viola Viola - difficult
SKU: HL.49012259
For Solo Viola. Composed by Bernd Alois Zimmermann. This edition: Saddle stitching. Sheet music. Viola-Bibliothek (Viola Library). Classical. Composed 1955. 8 pages. Duration 10'. Schott Music #VAB37. Published by Schott Music (HL.49012259).
ISBN 9790001102322. UPC: 884088083908. 9.0x12.0x0.039 inches.
Zimmermann wrote a series of works for unaccompanied solo instruments in which he experimented with material and tested out virtuoso playing techniques, simultaneously producing self-contained, independent works of art. In 1955, Zimmermann's daughter Barbara died soon after her birth; for this reason, the Sonata for Viola solo bears the dedication 'to the song of an angel' in reminiscence of Alban Berg's violin concerto.The final section of the work contains a quotation from the chorale 'Gelobet seist Du Jesu Christ'. Zimmermann, who makes reference in this work to Pachelbel's technique of anticipatory imitation, has appropriately characterised the sonata as a chorale prelude. Viewed from this perspective, the previous sections of the composition can be perceived as a gradual crystallisation of the chorale theme which emerges in its pure form towards the conclusion of the work.
