Reviews
Die verkleinerte Wiedergabe der Violinsonaten und Variationen für Klavier und Violine von Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart eignet sich in ihrem handlichen Format als Handgepäck für die einsame Insel, wohin man diese Werke wohl mitnehmen muss, oder als Studienexemplar für Studenten und Dozenten beim Zuhören oder bei der Analyse.
[Schweizer Musikzeitung, 2006]
These handy scores are perfect for a teacher or ensemble tutor, who can then remain seated in front of the group. The Critical Comments discussed bar by bar at the back will help to settle any moot points of interpretation.

I have assigned all of the violin music in G. Henle Publishers' catalogue a level of difficulty, ranging from "very easy" to "very difficult". The model for this was the evaluation system with nine levels developed for Henle's piano catalogue by Rolf Koenen. Unlike the works for solo piano, I have decided against evaluations that lie between two levels (e.g. 4/5 or 7/8).
This kind of attempt will always be "relative" to some degree. While the work remains the work, what is relative is the technical and musical ability of the player. Let us take a look at Mozart, for example, from the perspective of an Arthur Grumiaux and from that of a very young pupil. It is clear to whom my levels of difficulty are addressed: to the pupils or their teacher. I have, of course, always endeavoured to objectively assess the purely technical level of difficulty. But everything "between the lines" is, of course, left up to the judgement of each individual musician. Depending on our abilities, we perceive the "difficulty" of a work for violin differently, yet with the same conviction.
At the start, categorizing violin literature into levels of difficulty from 1 to 9 seemed to carry a certain risk as well as being unknown territory, yet I have now gained a deep insight into all of the works for violin in G. Henle Publishers' catalogue.
