Poeme for Violin and Piano

Composers:
  • Chausson, Ernest
Arrangers:
  • Granat, Endre
Detailed Instrumentation: Violin, Piano
Duration: 16
Description:

When the great Belgian violin virtuoso Eug猫ne Ysa每e tried to commission a violin concerto, Chausson declined and suggested a one movement work, Po猫me Op 25. (1896). The premiere took place at the Conservatoire of Nancy in 1896 with Ysa每e as soloist. The first Paris performance (1897) was a huge success for the composer who was yet relatively unknown. Chausson wrote three versions of the Po猫me: with orchestra, with piano accompaniment and a version for violin, piano with string quartet, the same setting as his Concerto in D for piano, violin and string quartet Op. 21 (1892). The violin parts are identical in all three versions. Ysa每e 鈥檚 helping hand in writing a most violinistic solo part is noticeable throughout the composition.
