Modest Mussorsky: Pictures at an Exhibition

Robert Schumann: 3 Fantasy Pieces op. 111

Following Schumann’s move to the Rhine, where he had become the musical director of the Düsseldorf Music Society, times became hard for him. Despite several initial successes, he increasingly encountered resistance from notabilities, musicians and the public. He thus worked all the more intensively at home on his new works. “R. has composed three piano pieces of a very serious, passionate character, which greatly please me”, Clara Schumann wrote in her diary in September 1851. Our edition of these “Fantasy Pieces”, which display a certain affinity with the Romances op. 28, has been thoroughly revised and an informative preface has been added.?

Franz Xaver Mozart: Rondo In E Minor For Flute And Piano

Franz Xaver Wolfgang Mozart did not have an easy time of it ? throughout his life his compositions were always compared to those of his father. It is only recently that he has slowly begun to come into his own. His works have their very own individual sound that already forges a link with Romanticism.The specialist Karsten Nottelmann has edited Urtext editions of all of Franz Xaver?s piano works for Henle publishers, and now he is continuing with the Rondo for Flute and Piano. Flautists greatly value this melodious work that is very suitable for teaching purposes and music at home.

Claude Debussy: Six Epigraphes Antiques - Piano Duet (Henle Urtext Edition)

Robert Schumann: Five Pieces In Folk Style Op.102 - Cello Version

Although Schumann had learnt the cello for a while in his youth, he only began to compose for this instrument in later life. Apart from the cello concerto, only his Five Pieces op. 102 have survived as original works for the cello. Clara was delighted with them: "These are pieces in folk style with such a freshness and originality that I was enchanted". The "Neue Zeitschrift für Musik" wrote: "These pieces are less apt for a virtuoso player than a well versed one who can speak on his instrument with tone and meaning." This edition, in the best Urtext quality, is particularly to be recommended for teaching purposes and for making music at home.

Antonín Dvorák: String Quartet F Op. 96 (American Quartet)

After a twelve-year interval, Dvořák once again turned his attention to the String Quartet in summer 1893. He had been musical director in New York since autumn 1892 and spent the summer in Spillville (Iowa) where a group of Czech immigrants had settled, thus making him feel at home. The beautiful natural surroundings led him to write this unconventional String Quartet in the tradition of Beethoven’s “Pastoral” – even down to the imitation of birdcalls. Since the first performances, certain rhythmic and melodic characteristics have been traced back to the influences of the folk music of Native Americans and African Americans, which led to the soon popular work being called the “ American Quartet ”. For the first time since 1955, the Quartet is once again being published in an Urtext edition.

Johannes Brahms: Symphonies Nos. 1 and 2 - Piano Four-hands

In the 19th century, arrangements for Piano four-hands were usually versions which people played at home if the works could not be heard in concert. In cases such as these Brahms did not, however, just make functional versions but creatively transcribed his works for the piano. As the composer he allowed himself greater freedom than arrangers for publishers did. In this form his arrangements greatly contributed to the success of his works in musical life in the 19th century. It is on account of their creativity that Brahms? arrangements have attracted new interest in musical circles over the last few decades. This Urtext edition of the Symphonies nos. 1 and 2 for piano four hands offers a scholarly musical text following the recently published volume in the Brahms Complete Edition.

Claude Debussy: String Quartet (Parts)

Debussy?s new string quartet received a very cool reception at its première in Paris in December 1893, performed by the famous Quatuor Ysaÿe. The critics were upset by its unusual harmonies and orchestral sounds, and the musicians who were later presented with it considered it ?unplayable?. Nevertheless the work was able to establish itself in the years that followed and today belongs to the core chamber music repertoire. The work was published in 1894 as ?1er Quatuor?; showing that the composer was at least toying with the idea of writing another such work at this time ? yet he never did fulfil this promise.

Felix Mendelssohn: String Quartets op. 44, 1-3

“Spirited”, “dramatic”, “highly expressive”, and “masterly” are among the comments made upon Mendelssohn’s String Quartets op. 44 nos 1 3. He wrote them in 1837/1838, at a very happy time: he had just married, was becoming world famous, and had been appointed director of the Leipzig Gewandhaus Concerts, one of the highest positions in the German musical world at that time. The quartets were written in the order 2 (in e minor), 3 (in E-flat major) and 1 (in D major). Mendelssohn himself considered the Quartet in D major as his best perhaps a reason why he placed it at the beginning of the collection.

Edvard Grieg: Lyric Pieces - Volume VIII Op.65 (Henle Urtext Edition)

Grieg’s successful series of Lyric Pieces reaches a unique climax in the eighth book. After the publisher almost had to force him Grieg was at the point of becoming tired of composing Lyric Pieces the composer succeeded in creating a spectacular and brilliant closing piece, “Wedding Day at Troldhaugen”. This recollection of Grieg’s own silver wedding anniversary is extremely effective, and performable not just by piano virtuosos -- talented newcomers will also enjoy unlocking its technical secrets!

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Andante for Flute and Orchestra C major KV 315

This much-beloved flute piece is probably an alternative slow movement for Mozart’s Flute Concerto in G major, and in its version with piano accompaniment it is indispensable to today’s flute teaching and to home music-making. This is undoubtedly due to the broad, sweeping cantilenas of the flute part, which, moreover, can easily be mastered by students, note the piece’s low level of difficulty (3).
