Abstract
Antonín Dvořák’s Violin Concerto in A minor, Op. 53 has numerous technical difficulties for violin players of all levels. In the early stages of its composition, Dvořák received help from the violin virtuoso Joseph Joachim, who found many challenges with the double stops, chords, and projecting over the thick texture of the orchestra. This project focuses on original etudes that violinists and pedagogues may use to navigate the most challenging passages in the concerto. The five etudes can also be applied to other technically complex passages found in Dvořák’s and other concerti where similar techniques are applied. The lecture recital will be a demonstration of the etudes. The audience may listen and watch a demonstration of the etude’s application, while learning how the etudes aid in successful performance of the concerto. The language used to discuss the processes of each etude can be understood by any player.
