Kreisler

Berceuse Romantique

Taught by renowned violinist 

Eric Gratz

Fritz Kreisler was called the King of Violin in his day; his interpretations of the standard repertoire were learned and insightful, and his original pieces contribute colorfully to the canon. Eric Gratz has recorded Berceuse Romantique several times and performed it many more, so he has spent ample time considering best practices for each passage. In this lesson, he shares how he creates a distinct sound world, uses rubato and vibrato, orchestrates his slides with taste, and much more.
