As a fellow viola student, I've tried to find this piece with the piano accompaniment, but I can't. Where can you obtain the music for viola and piano? Thanks!
@mythicalviola I am also currently playing this piece, and I just got it at my local music store. The edition I have is "edition kunzelmann." I hope you are able to find it.
@Worfbuckle: Thanks for noticing :-) in Zemlinsky's "Maiblumen" you hear my new Maggini model, a sonorous gift from heaven, which crossed my path this time last year. I wish I'd had it to play this Hummel with... everyone deserves an instrument like that, it intensifies the joy of music making...
@LorenzoLassek : As you can tell, we should have put the lid down; It is certainly not the most refined of instruments in the first place. Next to this, the viola I was using at the time did not have a lot of "power", so it got drowned out easily. We unfortunately did not have time for an acoustic balance test. Don't shoot the pianist :-)...
Thanks! ... I have not yet played the Mozart double concerto. I switched to viola rather late (playing the violin originally) and in fact only have had viola lessons for the past 12+ months. This (Hummel) was my first "educated" viola solo project.
Hi 13haus1, exam or not, just remember to ENJOY playing this piece! Too many performers out there (even on YouTube... go figure!) look as if they'd rather have a root canal treatment than to play this wonderful classic in public... good luck!
One of the best Hummel renidtions on YouTube, IMHO... the introduction and aria are absolutely beautiful! Sorry to have to ask, but are you amateur or professional?
I wish I could play like this...

Chapeau...!
But this is not the same viola you're playing in the Zemlinsky clip... how come?

Is the piano so aggressive beacause of the player, of the instrument or of the acoustic?

thanks, but no - I'm not a licensed musician :-). Working on this piece has taken several dedicated lessons and many months of studying.
