Excerpt: The Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso in A minor (French: ), op. 28, is a composition for violin and orchestra written in 1863 by Camille Saint-Saëns for the virtuoso violinist Pablo de Sarasate. Since its 19th century premiere, it has continued to be one of Saint-Saëns's most popular compositions. Camille Saint-Saëns (9 October 1835 - 16 December 1921) like many other French Romantic composers such as Edouard Lalo and George Bizet, held a deep interest in the style of Spanish dance music. This style permeates his solo violin works, particularly the Havanaise Op. 83 and the Introduction et Rondo Capriccioso.

(This piece became Saint-Saëns' Violin Concerto No. 1 in A major.) Four years later in 1863, Saint-Saëns wrote yet another solo piece for Sarasate: The Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso in A minor for violin and orchestra.

WOnderful Concertos
Wonderful script, a lot to enjoy and learn from, yet with one flaw: There are no separate sheets for the cello.

When I purchased this notebook, I didn't know that.

Great Concertos For The Cello
Three great cello concertos are included in this edition, with perhaps the Dvorak concerto being the best ever written for the instrument.

Dover's edition is put together well.Clear printing, score lays flat, and once again, how can you beat the price?Recommended for anyone that loves these concertos and wants to learn more about them. ... Read more
