I'm picking out my next concerto to work on. I like Rieding's violin concerto in E minor. I can only find videos of children playing it. Why? What's considered less worthy of this concerto? Why are no grown ups playing/recording it? I am also looking at the Viotti No.23 in G major...but I don't find it quite as appealing... I am very slow. If I am going to spend months learning something I have to like it!

I was recently asked to recommend a fill-in soloist when someone backed out of performing Vivaldi's Winter with a local symphony (not the one I play with, the one in the next town over). After naming a couple people I thought knew the part and had performed it before, I also mentioned that I could probably learn it myself. And now I'm soloing next month! On violin! (Anyone want to visit Ocala, FL on November 17?) Luckily it's an easy little instrument, I'm used to something much more difficult... In preparation, I've started listening to it a bunch. Tell me your favorite recordings. I've been listening to: 1. Standage/Pinnock with The English Concert 2. Shaham with Orpheus 3. Huggett/Kraemer with Raglan Baroque 4. Mackintosh/Hogwood with Academy of Ancient Music I'll update more as I practice.

The articulation of this theme (C E F G) [Represented by top line notes] drives me insane!! I know the staccato on F means it should be shortened, but, the (semiquaver F) should be played as (a demisemiquaver F + a demisemiquaver rest) or (a demisemiquaver rest + a demisemiquaver F)?? Because I saw different interpretations online!! By famous violinists Thxxx

Heard this yesterday. Sat in the front row looking up up up (note to self: consider other seating next time). First time I have listened to it. Very nice. Will have to spend time listening to a recording...preferably with a score... Any suggestions? Neck cramps aside - I was able to get a unique perspective as seen from underneath...great view of all the action. To relieve the neck pressure from looking up I straightened my head and took time to check out everyone's shoes and socks...
