He began playing the violin as a five year old, and made such quick progress that at the age of twelve he was accepted into the class of Jean-Delphi Alard at the Paris Conservatoire, where just a year hater he was awarded first, prize in the violin competition, In the ‘early 1860s he hegam a career as a tray clling vireuoso, with enormously suc~ cessful appearances throughout Europe ‘and in North and South America. Above all, the critics acclaimed his technical perfection and the brilliance of his sound. Even though the major viol tos by Beethoven and Mendelssohn were in his repertoire, and numerous contem- porary composers, such as Balakire, Lalo, Saint-Saéns, and Fa military baad 1 him, Sarasate primarily became fa- 1s for the performance of highly vir~ twoso showpieces, For this reason they also occupy a vental position in his own. ‘output, whic is focused entirely on set ngs for viol ‘ orchestra. and piano, or violin Bare foqunl inter the tnt ehariee of Earopan tre aptly rine p= i fk songs es dance, it com pest Hiss by tris Hangaran Daciano tv orchestra ik nes oh Compe recent centr, be bere doped mice hee hat = inl preted Gyr etsenble 9 HHongy = were dan rs poplin cau can be raced bic Damo a dance ut the er sonzof sider hues beng payed by Gypsy ensembles bck the ate tigen ent, al the “sis” (cially meaning from he wile tavern”), a maletond ipraed dune form vith cle opening (ar inseatngy ap hla muscal dhueetree reported hyn tele with ogacted cod ane Ipreted ern nd acon, ‘og any ote compen wat Frame Live wo dedicated mel et inemivly okie Han lh ter wasgenmaly oruaed Tat "Gypey mi hn Ungar Ration (avgaan Navona Nt) and Panguren Riper Fe pans ik Zip Gate Of nga nein melas ae face ioed y Lit and dap tothe Min The colds as wt ike he “print the ft lin Cpe em nab; on Barend in felon icons pete to tml wt ofthe Zener“ i tml indie cits i inept ths ple.

Sarasate, who does not understand German, instructs me to tell you that your wish concerning the attribution of ‘your s0 heautiful song shall be Fulfilled. Thave already written to Mr-Senff about it. We horeby eongratulate you for your beautiful inspiration. Mr-Sarasate heard the melody from Gypsies, and was cold ‘that it was popular, for whieh reason he used i without further ado” (quoted af- ter the original in: Sérospatak, Hungary Library of the Reformed Collegium, shelfmark 2967).
