Fiddling About with Kreisler's 'Tambourin chinois' for violin and piano
This exciting piece is a chance to indulge both classical and traditional interests
Playing Fritz Kreisler’s music feels like what the violin was meant to do. He composed to make people feel something, be it happy, nostalgic, romantic, or excited. It’s great fun to work on pulling all those sounds out of the fiddle, and yes, I do call it a fiddle!
I studied and performed this piece in college, but hadn’t performed it since then. It’s really refreshing to revisit it after so many years.
