Edwin Roxburgh Soliloquy 3
Béla Bartók Sonata for Solo Violin
The remarkable young violinist Sulki Yu is Laureate of the Yehudi Menuhin International Violin competition (2006) and the Szigeti-Hubay International Violin competition (2007). She has already performed throughout the world in venues such as the Royal Festival Hall, Wigmore Hall, Barbican, UNESCO Centre in Paris, Carnegie Hall in New York and the Seoul Arts Centre in Korea. Paul Patterson’s Luslawice Variations was commissioned by Penderecki for his own home town’s Luslawice Festival. It is dedicated to the great Polish composer and friend and former tutor to Patterson. Hanna Kulenty’s Still Life with Violin is a study of patterns, while Edwin Roxburgh’s Soliloquy 3 is a tour-de-force, as skilful in its construction as the skill demanded of the performer. Bartok’s Sonata for Solo Violin is arguably the most significant work in its genre since Bach.
