Solo Violin

<p>Eugène Ysaÿe (1858-1931) was one of the most prominent violin virtuosos from the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth century. As a composer, his Six Sonatas for Unaccompanied Violin, Op. 27, composed in 1924, are amongst his most creative and significant contributions to the solo violin repertoire. Each sonata was dedicated to a different virtuoso violinist and is composed to represent the different performing style of each violinist.  Among the research related to Ysaÿe’s solo sonatas, there is no detailed performance analysis of the works. Although instructions in Ysaÿe’s solo sonatas are marked carefully in terms of tempo, bowings, bow strokes, fingerings, string choices, dynamics, and characters, the existing recordings show a variety of approaches regarding these elements. Therefore, this exegesis investigates the sonatas through the comparative analysis of six selected recordings of the composer’s students or their own students, and performers with no direct pedagogical lineage to the composer. The study explores whether performances recorded by the violinists who have a pedagogical connection to the composer provide useful sources that are not found in the music, and also examines how and why different musical decisions were made and offers my point of view as a performer as well.</p>

The article examines the work of a prominent Belgian violinist and composer, E. Ysaÿe, as a representative of Belgian national culture in several different aspects: the incorporation of folklore in his music, his expertise of the Belgian violin school, his life as a follower of C. Franсk, and his role in the wide field of Belgium's artistic and cultural traditions. Folklore is manifested through modal combinations, biphonic and polyphonic layers, the use of parallelisms, in which the author unites anhemitonic and chromatic scales, tone-splitting, etc. E. Ysaye, demonstrates ethnic intensity in ―Village Dance‖, ―Aurora‖ from Sonata No. 5, the Finale from Sonata No. 1 , Mazurkas, Sonatas for 2 solo violins, the symphonic work "Nostalgia", and the opera "Pierre Rudocop". Сomposer is inspired by folk techniques, methods of sound production, types of bowings, rubato, and the use of primitive forms of polyphony- bourdon and ostinato, which are presented in a striking variety by Ysaÿe. Тhe enthusiasm for playing violin folk music, obviously contributed to the creation of a new modern school of violin technique in the twentieth century. In the traditions of Belgian professional music, nationalism manifested itself in the revival of choral music, re-examining the polyphonic techniques of ancient masters (under the influence of C. Franck), in particular, the Franco-Flemish school and Belgian organ school use canonic-imitation, allusions of linear thinking, and medieval mensural notation (2nd movement of Sonata No. 2). The artist also contributed to the growth of Belgian music in the Wallonie culture, of which the famous representative, C. Franck, was born, and his devoted student, E. Ysaÿe, became the author of the only opera in the Wallonie language, "Pierre-Rudokop". Interesting and fruitful are E. Ysaÿe’s connections with the Belgian symbolists M. Metterlink and E. Verharn, evident through the lyrics of the poetic cycle in the ―London‖ trio. In the realm of violin performance - as the direct follower and disciple of the prominent violinist H.Vieuxtemps. Recently discovered violin concertos of the composer, the first of which is dedicated to H.Vieuxtemps, as well as other original works, and grandiose performances, attest to Eugene Ysaÿe’s striking representation of the Belgian national culture.

Without question the world we are living in is constantly changing hence experiencing new perspectives. Every now and then there is a personality that inspires others and brings forth new ideals and ideas that capture innovative inherent expressions. One of those musical personalities was Eugène Ysaÿe. Ysaÿe has managed to encompass and bring new pedagogical-interpretative violinistic ideals that merge together the history of performance on the violin together with the music history as a whole. The op. 27 of Eugène Ysaÿe represents his most notable composition that bears a distinct mark of this fascinating violinist and musician.

Violinist, conductor, pedagogue, composer Eugène Ysaÿe represents a transitional sacrosanct monolith from a musical point of view situated at the crossroads of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries in the art of which we encounter with much skill the jointing of a well established musical system together with a debordant overflowing imagination. Eugène Ysaÿe has managed therefore to obtain a masterpiece worthy of the full attention of musicologists and anyone curious enough about innovative evolutionary principles in music as well as in other domains.
