Description:
Who does not know them, the famous arias from Mozart’s "Don Giovanni", which in their contrasts show the whole gamut of human emotional states? Pablo de Sarasate wove the most popular of these melodies into his Fantasy op. 51. Composed around 1905, it numbers among his most fascinating operatic fantasies. With incomparable virtuosity, Sarasate transformed motives from Mozart’s opera into a scintillating concert piece full of elegance and wit. Demanding double stops and runs call for the highest violinistic mastery and stylistic assurance. Until now, the work has not been available in any modern edition – a regrettable gap that the present edition finally fills. The famous Henle notation makes the musical structures quickly and clearly comprehensible; additionally, the musical text itself has been carefully reviewed. The edition is therefore the ideal foundation for both study and performance.
