This is the piano accompaniment track for Ferdinand Küchler’s Concertino in D Major, Op. 15, Mvt I for violin. The tempo is a realistic performance/practice tempo of around quarter note = 70, and it includes a 4 bar intro. The accompaniment track is very musical in that it allows the soloist plenty of time during sixteenth note passages and to end phrases. It also includes clear ritardandos as shown in the edition found in Barbara Barber’s “Solos for Young Violinists,” volume 1. Küchler was a renowned German violin pedagogue, and this instructive piece is perfect for students who are just getting comfortable with shifting to 3rd position. Performed by Wendy Hellmann.
