This piece has been included in several major orchestra auditions and competitions. While violists often lack hands-on experiences of the Classical repertoire, this document is to provide violists ways to perform this piece and pieces from the same period. Hoffmeister's Viola Concerto in D Major has been published by G. Henle Verlag, Kunzelmann, Peters, Kalmus, International Music Company (New York), H. L. Grahl, and Max Eschig. Kunzelmann is in full score and piano reduction, and the other six are in piano reduction. Seven cadenzas have been published, five of them were written by Franz Beyer, Herbert Blendinger, Maurice Vieux, Robert D. Levin, and Paul Doktor. Each of them presents different technical difficulties. These editions will be discussed and compared. The form of each movement will also be analyzed. Issues of performance practice will be provided along with the information above. I will examine Leopold Mozart's A Treatise on the Fundamental Principles of Violin Playing, published at Ausburg in 1756, because this treatise not only deals with the techniques of violin playing, but also provides guidance on playing of ornamentations, which is informative for Hoffmeister's Viola Concerto in D Major. 2010-08-06 English text University of Cincinnati / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1276955407 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1276955407 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: some rights reserved.
