Description
Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy enriched the repertoire for violin with one of the most significant works of the 19th century, his Violin Concerto in E minor op. 64 MWV O 14. He also completed three sonatas for violin and piano, in which the violin part is set technically and tonally demanding, yet rewarding to play. Mendelssohn invariably relied on the support of a skilled and trusted violinist. Thus, Eduard Ritz accompanied the creation of the Sonata in F Minor op. 4 MWV Q 12 (1825). From the mid-1830s, Mendelssohn’s friend from his youth in Berlin, Ferdinand David, took over this role and became an influential advisor, for instance on the great Sonata in F major (MWV Q 26), of which two versions have survived. The Sonata in F major MWV Q 7 is an early work by Mendelssohn from 1820.
