Question
Note to players: composer and type of work required. While writing one of these pieces, their composer wrote a letter discussing the “need to abridge, compress, and not be loquacious.” The second movement of the third of these pieces features a 3/8 waltz section in which the first clarinet and bassoon play a variation of the opening melody. At the start of one of these pieces by this composer, the upper string melody [read slowly] long C, D, long C, D, long C, B-flat, A-flat, B-flat, G follows eight bars of low pedal Fs. After the bad premiere of his First (*) Symphony, the composer dedicated the second of these pieces to his therapist Nikolai Dahl. These four pieces written between 1891 and 1926 often pose difficulties for soloists due to parts written for their composer’s big hands. For 10 points, name these works for a keyboard instrument and orchestra by the composer of Rhapsody on a Theme by Paganini. ■END■
