Henryk Wieniawski (1835-1880)
Legende op.17 for violin + orchestra
Andante-Moderato maestoso-Andante

[britinsboy]

The performance is by Arthur Grumiaux, Violin; New Philharmonia Orchestra; conducted by Edo De Waart.  I have treasured this recording since it first appeared  in 1970.  Timing is identical to this welcome post,  and besides, I have every note memorized!

That section starting at 3:05 is so beautiful! Wow!

اجرایی متفاوت ، همراه با نت دقیقش که بسیار قابل استفاده بود

I've been listening to recordings of this piece, as I am working on it myself. What do you (anyone) think the expression difference should be between the main melody lines? I was thinking the second Sul D one would be sadder and more of a falling sensation in comparison to the opening, "i am here" the first one gives off but now listening to it, I'm not so sure?

4:10 Yes, it is good to know that those open strings are being played without any fingers - what else would you use?

[foguz]

i prefer the piano accompaniment version...
