Beschreibung
Originally for violin, this beautiful Nocturne is ideal for the progressing
young bassist or cellist. 19th-century German composer-pianist J.F.
Burgmuller (1806-1874) lived most of his life in Paris and writes in a
lyrical and romantic style, typical of the age. The edition remains in bass
clef throughout and offers effective musical and technical challenges. This
is beautiful and evocative music where the bassist can display more than
simply technical prowess Nocturne No.1 has been very popular with
intermediate bassists who are not quite ready to play in thumb position yet,
but have a good knowledge of the positions up to harmonic G (one octave above
the open string). The double bass part is for SOLO TUNING only. Johann
Friedrich Burgmuller was born in Regensburg (Germany) on 4 December 1806. In
1829 he moved to Kassel to study with Ludwig Spohr and Moritz Hauptmann and
his first solo concert in the town was in 1830. He moved to Paris two years
later and he wrote many pieces of salon music for the piano, published
several albums and composes piano études intended for children. The three
Nocturnes were originally for cello and guitar, also arranged with piano
accompaniment, and later transcribed for violin and piano.
