Six Sonatas for Solo Violin, Op. 27

Eugene Ysaye, a Belgian virtuoso violinist, composer, and conductor completed the Six Sonatas in July 1923, when he was 65, and dedicated each Sonata to one of his younger contemporary violinists: Joseph Szigeti, Jacques Thibaud, George Enescu, Fritz Kreisler, Mathieu Crickboom and Manuel Quiroga. Ysaye started his compositions after listening to Joseph Szigeti playing Johann Sebastian Bach’s Sonata for Solo Violin in G minor. These pieces are technically demanding, but each of the sextet was intended to capture the elements of his dedicatee’s style. Ysaye, regarded as “the King of the Violin”, wrote his instructions to performers of these Sonatas, you “must be a violinist, a thinker, a poet, a human being, you must have known hope, love, passion and despair, you must have run the gamut of the emotions in order to express them all in your playing.”
