Charles Dancla, Studies Opus 84 : 36 Études mélodiques et très faciles pour violon [36 Melodious and Very Easy Studies for the Violin].
Dancla composed these Studies Opus 84 for the violin, and a transcription for the viola also exists.
These Studies Opus 84 by Dancla are often among the first ones studied by young violinists and violists.
This Study in C Major, Op. 84, No. 25 is a theme and two variations based upon the famous melody Le Carnaval de Venise [The Carnival of Venice] by Paul Agricole Génin.
It is to be played in the first and third positions and is concerned mainly with delicate bowings and phrasing.
It has the following form :
- Mm. 1-4 : Theme phrase A in C Major
- Mm. 5-8 : Theme phrase A repeated
- Mm. 9-12 : Theme phrase B
- Mm. 13-16 : Theme phrase B repeated
- Mm. 17-32 : Variation 1 in the key of G Major, featuring rapid string crossings, double stops and natural harmonics
- Mm. 33-end : Variation 2 featuring delicate martelé and appogiaturas at the tip of the bow
