    Czardas/Csardas - not the one by Monti

    I was told of a Czardas for violin and piano, and it came highly recommended by a violinist I met by chance. He told me the name of the composer, but I didn’t write it down, so I don’t know whether I’ll be able to identity it, enabling me to buy the music.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated. Looking on the web, you’d think only one Czardas had ever been composed.

    It wasn't an arrangement of the Czardas from Kalman's Countess Maritza was it, Alpie?

    Here's the version for fiddle and orchestra:

      Sándor Veress? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7mJVKOkgRY

      It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.

          I’ll pass these on to my violinist, but I don’t think either is the one. Please keep suggestions coming.

            Gustave Hille?

            No.3 from Hungarian Skethes, Op.23 by Gustav Hille. The Czardas aims to recreate the fire and passion of traditional Hungarian folk-dance music.


            (I've also found mention of a Csardas by Caludi - the pseudonym of violinist Chretien Rogister - which was popular with Mantovani, although he doesn't seem to have recorded it, it's not on youTube, and whenever I type in "Caludi" to my search engine, it keeps asking me if I meant "Claudio"! )
