The Recitativo and Scherzo for solo violin, published in 1911 as Op 6, bears the dedication ‘À Eugène Ysaÿe, le maître et l’ami’. The Recitativo demands the parlando bowing that was a persuasive part of Kreisler’s armoury, while the Scherzo calls for considerable virtuosity. A dozen years later Ysaÿe returned the compliment by dedicating the fourth of his solo sonatas to Kreisler.

Le Recitativo et Scherzo pour violon solo, publié en 1911 sous le numéro d’opus 6, est dédié «À Eugène Ysaÿe, le maître et l’ami». Le Recitativo fait appel au coup d’archet parlando, l’un des outils convaincants de l’arsenal de Kreisler; quant au Scherzo, il requiert une immense virtuosité. Quelque douze ans plus tard, Ysaÿe lui retournera le compliment en lui dédiant sa quatrième sonate pour violon solo.

Das Recitativo und Scherzo für Violine solo erschien 1911 als op. 6 und trägt die Widmung: „À Eugène Ysaÿe, le maître et l’ami.“ Das Recitativo erfordert die Parlando-Bogenführung, die zu Kreislers überzeugenden Mitteln gehörte; das Scherzo verlangt hingegen beträchtliche Virtuosität. Zwölf Jahre später erwiderte Ysaÿe das Kompliment, indem er Kreisler seine vierte Solosonate widmete.
