Ausgabe für Violine solo, Krititsche Ausgabe.
The Caprice
d’Adieu (autograph unknown) is appended to Eduard Eliason’s »Six
Caprices Caractéristiques pour le Violon« Op. 12, which was published in
Mayence by B. Schott in 1833. This piece, which Paganini dedicated to
Eliason, is part of a series of compositions for violin solo that have
been widely ignored by both performers and scholars of the great Genoese
musician.
It is a composition whose size and structure (A-B-A,
with two refrains) follows the pattern of some of his Capricci Op. 1,
but, unlike these proper studies, the »Caprice d’adieu« is lighter and
more lively in character. Although not as brilliant, musically, as the
Capricci, it still contains some original musical ideas, mostly
articulated in two parts with a few complex technical passages and a
central, contrasting section featuring different dynamics and a range of
chords and trills. This critical edition is based on the first edition
and is collated with the most important nineteenth and twentieth-century
editions.
