Biber, Passacaglia for Violin Solo (PWM edition)

Edited by Antoni Cofalik

The Rosary Sonatas (AKA the Mystery Sonatas) by Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber are a collection of 16 short sonatas for violin and continuo with a final passacaglia for solo violin.  This edition of the passacaglia was edited by Antoni Cofalik.

It is thought that the Mystery Sonatas were composed around 1676,  but they were unknown until they were published in 1905.  However, Biber's music was never entirely lost due to the exeptional technique needed to play many of his works.

The Passacaglia is considered the most “outstanding work of its type before the Bach Chaconne”.

Performance by Elicia Silverstein

Published in 1880, the pieces consist of 48 pages and are edited by H. Berkley at a very advanced level. The etudes have been reworked by violinists such as Carl Flesch, Max Rostal, and Ivan Galamian in numerous new editions throughout the twentieth century.
