The Soloist's Ultimate Happy Birthday published by Universal Edition.
For Two Violins
Igudesman translates the familiar Happy Birthday tune into the style of classic violin masterpieces in a seamless exposition. An opening passage a la Bruch gives way to a Sibelius-like phrase, then continues in the styles of Mozart, Shostakovich, Tchaikovsky, Brahms, and on. Quotes from the concerti are intermingled with the ongoing Happy Birthday theme to create, truly, The Soloist's Ultimate Happy Birthday. For two violinists of intermediate to advanced skills.
