  • Description

    Kopfkino, the story: During hard times a poor violin teacher with no students contemplates selling his beloved violin. He plays a sad tune based on a motif from Henri Marteau. Then he daydreams of a knock on the door and a young, gifted violinist asking him for lessons. In his daydream the young player, under his tuition, becomes a virtuoso and wins an international competition to great acclaim. The proud teacher is overwhelmed with joy and pride - enquiries flood in from new students... A new chapter in his life begins. Commissioned by the Hofer Symphoniker for the 9th International Violin Competition Henri Marteau. World premiere as part of the 9th International Violin Competition Henri Marteau, April 26 to May 9, 2026, by participants of the competition.
