Description

Pleyel was a highly esteemed musician in his day and somewhat of an entrepreneur eventually running a world famous publishing house in Paris in the early nineteenth century. This work, originally written for two violins in 1806, exudes all the charm and drama of a late Classical style work. Being  in sonata form, the brooding  first subject is contrasted with the impish second theme in staccato quavers. The  movement ends with a lively  duel between the first and second violins. Your orchestra will just love the vibrancy and passion in this work!

Grade 3.5
