The famous Seitz Student Concertos are a rite of passage for advancing violinists. Concerto No. 2 is a full-fledged concerto in three movements, with occasional flashes of student technique, a satisfying experience for pupil and audience. Laine's transcription for viola and piano is designed to bring the same sense of accomplishment to student violists.

All five of the Seitz Pupil's Concertos are collected in one volume for the first time. The collected edition is quite a bargain, since the concertos are $5.95 each when purchased separately (a $29.75 value). A new volume in Schirmer's Library of Musical Classics.

The series "BärenreiterÂ's Concert Pieces" presents further editions with works by Oskar Rieding (BA 8982), Friedrich Seitz (BA 8979) and Joseph-Hector Fiocco (Ba 8977). All editions contain a solo violin part and a piano part for the piano accompanist. The series is edited by Kurt Sassmannshaus, the internationally-renowned violin teacher and co-author of the Sassmannshaus violin school tradition. His forewords introduce these little gems and include tips for successful first concerts. These editions form an ideal continuation of the Sassmannshaus violin school tradition and can be used in parallel from the third volume onwards or alongside any violin method.

The series Â"BärenreiterÂ's Concert PiecesÂ" has now been expanded to include the three-movement Student Concerto op. 22 by Friedrich Seitz in arrangements for viola (BA 8986) and cello (BA 8987), previously published for violin (BA 8979). The concertos have been transposed, making them ideal for beginners and young pupils. Concise forewords by the renowned string pedagogues Christoph and Kurt Sassmannshaus introduce the work and point out the relevant playing techniques required.

Friedrich Seitz (1848Â-1918) was one of the best-known and most sought-after violinists of his day. This concerto starts with a resolute allegro in G minor, followed by a gentle adagio in E-flat major and flows into a cheerful dance-like final movement in G major. In order to play this, violinists must be able to master 1st to 3rd positions. A concise foreword by the renowned string pedagogue Kurt Sassmannshaus introduces the work and points out the relevant playing techniques required. The series Â"BärenreiterÂ's Concert PiecesÂ" forms an ideal continuation of the Sassmannshaus string methods but can also be used to supplement any other string tutor.

Edited by Tyrone Greive. Seitz's fun, delightful work provides the student an enjoyable means to gain technical skill and musicianship.
