La Ronde Des Lutins (Dance of the Goblins) Op. 28

Description

• Composer: Antonio Bazzini
• Arranger: Jascha Heifetz
• Editor: Endre Granat
• Publisher: Lauren Keiser Music Publishing

This great bravura piece uses many of the innovations the composer learned from his teacher, Niccolo Paganini--ricochet and flying staccato bowings, double harmonics, left hand pizzicato, and repetition of the same pitch on all four strings. This work remained one of Jascha Heifetz' favourite encores. He recorded it in 1917 and again in 1937. His bowings, fingerings and his suggestions regarding interpretation are integral part of this edition.
