Evolution of the solo violin repertoire and its use in today’s violin pedagogy
Solo violin repertoire, along with concertos and etudes, is an essential part of a violinist's repertoire. Whether the solo composition is by a well-known composer such as J.S. Bach or a lesser known, more recent composer such as Augusta Read Thomas, studying violin works from different musical periods offers unique challenges for the violinist to solve in order to demonstrate his or her best rendition. It is also this thought process which often lends music to their interpretive complexity. In addition, solo violin repertoire is not only used for performance purposes ¬- such as music school audition and recitals - but also, it is used for pedagogical purposes. This thesis will examine the technical and musical aspects of each composer, and will also reference examples from technical studies.
