Claude Debussy’s sole work in this genre was the last of his pieces premiered in his lifetime. Jean-Pierre Rampal made a flute arrangement of a piece in this genre that contains a Recitativo-Fantasia third movement. A collaborative piece in this genre uses a cryptogram of the phrase “free, but lonely” and was written by Robert Schumann, Johannes Brahms, and Albert Dietrich. César Franck wrote an A minor piece in this genre as a wedding present for Eugène Ysaÿe (“oo-ZHEN ee-ZYE”). A dream in which the devil appeared to Giuseppe Tartini inspired a piece in this genre nicknamed “Devil’s Trill” for a difficult passage involving double stops. For 10 points, name this genre of music for a high string instrument usually accompanied by piano. ■END■
