Violin and Piano. Par IRELAND JOHN. Although one of Ireland's earliest published works, his Berceuse for violin and piano of 1902 displays the exemplary grace of salon music at its most sophisticated.

Par FAURE GABRIEL. Fauré composed his 5 impromptus in two distinct periods of his career, in 1881?83 and 1906?09. Inspired by Chopin?s example, the brilliant early impromptus (opp. 25, 31 and 34) resemble lyrical études that seem like improvisations but are laid out in symmetrical form with a coda. In contrast, the impromptus opp. 91 and 102 are far more boldly conceived in their sonority, harmony…
