REVIEW VIDEOS

The most enduring of Saint-Saens' violin concerti, the Concerto No. 3 in B minor, Op. 61 was dedicated, along with many of his other concert works for violin, to the Spanish virtuoso Pablo de Sarasate. Where the previous two concerti are more physically demanding, this concerto is possibly more melodic and expressive, containing many intensely passionate themes. This is not to say it lacks technical demands; it is certainly best suited to advanced players with solid technique, who are thus able to bring about the varied themes with grace and panache! This edition for violin with piano reduction is edited by ?mile Sauret. Published by G. Schirmer.

Difficulty: ASTA grade 6

Many Editorial Differences

While there is nothing wrong with this edition per se, there are many editorial differences in the Schirmer/Sauret edition. There are things like double stops and changes in certain runs here that don't appear in the first edition or the International/Francescatti Edition. If you're going to be learning this concerto with a teacher, check with them on which edition to work from.
