Edited by Jutta Puchhammer-Sédillot and published by Schott Music, the collection features concertinos by Hans Sitt, Heinrich Arends, and Léon Firket, originally associated with the demanding tradition of Conservatoire final examinations. Based on early editions, the music has been supplemented with modern fingerings and practical bowing indications, helping today’s violists approach this rarely performed repertoire more easily while developing the technical, lyrical, and virtuosic qualities required for advanced performance.
