Description

Kristian Oma Rønnes’ arrangement of this, the third movement of Paganini’s second violin concerto as transcribed by Lizst (titled Etude III: La Campanella) is a very challenging and impressive showpiece. It is a continuous theme with variations that doesn’t let up, requiring facile fingers and articulation, frequently up to D5. The work concludes with a G5!
