Description
Aleksy Igudesman has again been on his travels – the result: an extraordinary and enlightening collection of traditional and original pieces for violin duos embracing the stylish characteristics of music from eleven different cultures. The notes on the pieces provide practical advice and the descriptions of the various influences that prompted their composition are truly inspiring.
Joshua Bell calls Igudesman “a formidable violinist, a brilliant comedian, and composer / arranger of uncanny versatility,” which has previously been displayed in his Celtic Violin Duets, Klezmer Violin Duets, and Latin and More Violin Duets. Here, Igudesman turns his world view to Asia, with tunes from Turkey, the Phillipines, China, Japan, and more. Brief notes and performance suggestions are provided for all. For advanced performers.
