Description: Some of the most difficult music for solo violin ever composed: the “Polyphonic Studies” (the last of which is a set of variations on ‘The Last Rose of Summer’) and his transcription of Schubert’s song, Der Erlkonig. Between these pieces come some less familiar fare: five Schubertian piano pieces, and two song settings of Goethe.
