Cadenzas to Ludwig van Beethoven's Concerto for Violin and Orchestra op. 61
# Indispensible for all violinists studying this masterpiece
# First publication of a cadenza by Wieniawski
# With notes on performance practice
Beethoven himself left no cadenzas for his Violin Concerto.
This edition is unique in drawing together for the fi rst time a
selection of cadenzas to one of the most famous works in
the history of music, written by composers and violinists over
150 years. This publication contains not only the well-known
cadenzas by Leopold Auer and Joseph Joachim, but also several
which are seldom performed, such as those by Ferdinand David
(the fi rst surviving cadenza to op. 61), Louis Spohr, Eugène
Ysaÿe, Camille Saint-Saëns, Henri Vieuxtemps, Jakob Dont and,
for the fi rst time, one by Henryk Wieniawski.
Commentaries (German/English) on the composers and on
performance practice are included.
The edition complements the new piano reduction BA 9019a
and will be invaluable for all violinists studying Beethoven’s
Violin Concerto.

-In Wieniawski's album leaf, the missing high A renders the voice-leading more logical.
