Performer and Composer Collaborations: Commissioning Unaccompanied Repertoire for the Modern Violinist

The objective of this two-part treatise is to historically understand Eugène Ysaÿe's Six Sonatas for Solo Violin, Opus 27. My intent is to utilize the reverse of the one-composer and multi-performer model to commission new works for unaccompanied violin. The first chapter provides historical and musical background on the Ysaÿe sonatas. Chapter two discusses the necessary steps to commissioning a work, a list of resources, as well as the specific steps taken to complete this project. Chapter three features composer biographies and descriptions of new works commissioned. Lastly, the fourth chapter is a conclusion of the two-part project, in addition to ideas for future commissions. / A Treatise submitted to the College of Music in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Music. / Spring Semester 2017. / April 13, 2017. / Commission, Composition, Sonatas, Unaccompanied, Violin, Ysaye / Includes bibliographical references. / Corinne Stillwell, Professor Directing Treatise; J. Joseph Cronin, University Representative; Alexander Jiménez, Committee Member; Greg Sauer, Committee Member.
