Best Answer

Because he, Pugnani, was a great and famous violinist in his time (now maybe a bit forgotten) and it's a way to make a homage to him.

Can anyone provide any help analysing Kreisler's Praeludium and Allegro particularly the Allegro eg how many sections can it be split up into and what are its notable features etc?

I am 12 and am playing this piece. The two compositions written in the style of Pugnani are the Tempo di Minuetto and this Praeludium and Allegro. They're pastiches of the Italian style of virtuoso violin writing. Dramatic prelude (which originally meant an improvised warm-up piece) in three parts - opening declamatory statement, middle more florid bit then declamatory statement again. The allegro is also in three parts, with lots of double stopping, a major section in G major, then returns to E minor where there's a long cadenza passage over a pedal point before coming to a triumphant conclusion in a chord of E major rather than E minor. Kreisler used a rich vibrato sound and Pugnani used long strong bowing, this is reflected in the piece.

Why did Fritz Kreisler use pseudonym on his pieces?

From the Fritz Kreisler entry to the Concise Baker's Biographical Dictionary of Musicians: "He (Kreisler) ... published a number of pieces in the classical vein, which he ascribed to various old composers (Vivaldi, Pugnani, Couperin, Padre Martini, Dittersdorf, Francoeur, Stamitz, and others). In 1935 he reluctantly admitted that these pieces were his own, with the exception of the first 8 bars from the "Couperin" Chanson Louis XIII taken from a traditional melody; he explained his motive in doing so by the necessity of building up well-rounded programs for his concerts that would contain virtuoso pieces by old composers, rather than a serious of compositions under his own, as yet unknown, name."
