【VLA】 Hoffmeister - 12 Etudes for Viola

[@trinityuwu4853]

The double stops in Allegro make me want to rip my fingers off

[@LavaMLG]

Kinda funny how the first one sounds like the hoffmeister vla concerto just a whole step lower in the first two notes

[@nocturnallsnake4228]

Classical Music.

Welp, time to come back 2 years when I can dream about playing something like this then maybe in 10 years I'll give it a shot to practice edit: it's been 2 years and I'm doing pretty good on the first etude, which is so unbelievable for me

[@viniciusmariano9589]

No.6 17:59~18:09 Is the beat wrong or the score wrong? or mistake?.What is the correct answer?. 16 notes

[@kayatsa]

yes sounds like the performer is playing 8th notes instead of 16th. possibly different interpretation or arrangement.

[@張茗茗-y9i]

24:39, 33:34, and 35:09 can be played by alto saxophone.

BRAVO !!! 👏👏👏

[@wired-fpz]

Thinking of playing one of these for my college audition but I can’t decide between 1, 3, 4, or 7😅 Edit: Ended up playing 3 for time's sake and I got in :)

[@kayatsa]

I actually played 7 for my college audition :) good luck!!

[@rbratsche]

Darn! I struggle with the last part of #1. It sounds like you’re doing single bows for some of the double stops-is that correct? Thanks!

[@kayatsa]

Hello! This is not my audio, so I’m not sure. But it does sound like it! Good luck :)

[@RolandHutchinson]

Have a look at IMSLP or at the nice facsimile printed by Fuzeau for the original 18th-century publication. The Peters (and various reprints) edition edited by Friedrich Hermann about 150 years ago adds a number of slurs that weren't in Hoffmeister's own edition, and makes a number of other changes (including -- mercifully!!! -- removing the TENTHS; Hoffmeister must have had a large hand or a small viola, or both, I imagine). This performance removes a few of the slurs that Hermann added. There are a lot of places where you can choose to follow Hermann or not.

Damn!

[@chemprofmatt]

I like these pieces, but I really wouldn't consider them to be etudes. If anything they're melodies which Hoffmeister either never got around to writing accompaniments for or were ultimately incorporated into other works.

[@tizionid5402]

The First Is like Mozart, a preparation to Mozart concertos

[@RolandHutchinson]

More precisely, a preparation for Hoffmeister's D major viola concerto.
