The Entertainer

33 pieces for violin and piano which are fun to play – this is what the new anthology of Wolfgang Birtel in the Violinissimo series has to offer! In addition to Joplin's eponymous work The Entertainer, the volume contains many other pieces from classical to music on the lighter side, e.g. Fucik, Einzug der Gladiatoren, Rubinstein, Melody in F or Abreu, Tici Tico, Villoldo, El Choclo, Lincke, Berliner Luft, and other easily playable, but also lesser known, yet rewarding pieces.
