Nölck Hungarian Dance Op.196 No. 5 Dance for Violin and Piano

Nölck: Hungarian Dance, Op. 196 No. 5 — New Edition (Violin and Piano)

Nölck's Hungarian Dance Op. 196 No. 5 follows the classic Csárdás structure: a slow, soulful Lassú opening that gives way to a blistering fast section. At two to three minutes it packs a lot of character and technical variety into a short space, and the contrast between the two sections gives a Grade 6 violinist something genuinely dramatic to communicate. This is a newly engraved edition of the original violin and piano version, with clean, well-spaced parts that are straightforward to read and annotate.
