Chopin/Sarasate - 2 Nocturnes, Op 9/2 and Op 27/2 - for Violin and Piano -Schott

From the Preface: "An arrangement of these pieces might seem almost sacrilegious from a modern perspective -- after all, the original Nocturnes for piano solo are unsurpassable works of art. Yet if they are considered from a violinist's point of view and in the context of the era of their composition, they are fascinating for performers and audiences alike. It is understandable that Sarasate should have wished to interpret one of the loveliest and most heartfelt melodies on the violin, which he saw above all as a lyrical instrument."
