Heinrich Wilhelm Ernst was considered to be the successor of legendary violin virtuoso Nicolò Paganini. This program showcases Ernst’s incredible works for solo violin, which are rarely (if ever) performed on gut strings: the Six Polyphonic Studies (including the set of variations on The Last Rose of Summer), and the famous transcription of Schubert’s song Erlkönig.
