Franz Benda: 6 Sonatas for Violin and Basso Continuo

’Gallant’ and ‘sensitive’ by no means implies boring and old-fashioned. Proof of this is given by Franz (František) Benda , the Bohemian Paganini of the 18th Century. Not only was his life extremely colourful and successful, but so were his musical compositions that were primarily for the Violin. They are great examples of his compositional ability and mastery of the Violin. Our highly praised Urtext edition with six selected sonatas from the master’s different creative periods – including four first publications – will provide a rich experience for all those violinists who are prepared to step off the usual beaten track. Your efforts will be rewarded!

J. S. Bach: Trio Sonata In G BWV 1038

Bach?s Trio Sonata In G BWV 1038 For Flute, Violin And Continuo has survived as a set of parts in Johann Sebastian Bach?s hand ? yet the source does not give a composer. Thus its authenticity has been called into question time and again. According to the latest research, however, this tone sensitive sonata is presumed to be an original work by Bach. Editor, Peter Wollny, a declared expert, outlines the reasons for this in detail. The violin part is to be played in scordatura according to the source, so this version has provided a part in original notation as well as in standard notation for regularly tuned violins.

Niels Wilhelm Gade: Selected Piano Pieces

Niels W. Gade, who occasionally substituted for Felix Mendelssohn as conductor of the Gewandhaus Concerts in Leipzig, is today considered the most important Danish composer. In his “Spring Flowers” op. 2b, “Aquarelles” op. 19 and “New Aquarelles” op. 57 he created supple, pleasing piano pieces in an intimate style suitable for domestic music-making. Nevertheless, these character pieces are of moderate difficulty. They fascinate with their powerful originality, deeply sensitive expressive power and pianistic ingenuity. For pianists who want to look beyond the established romantic piano music repertoire, engaging with this edition will prove worthwhile. The informativepreface has been written by Danish pianist Bengt Johnsson, who has recorded Gade’s complete piano works.

Wilhelm Friedemann Bach: Twelve Polonaises

The polonaise was a fashionable dance form not only in Chopin and Liszt’s time, for Johann Sebastian Bach’s son Wilhelm Friedemann had already brought this Polish national dance to a high-point. His twelve Polonaises were so popular in his time that they survive in numerous manuscripts, meaning that today’s pianists can enjoy these most successful of W. F. Bach’s piano compositions. Colourful and effective, they ascend stepwise through the keys, with a polonaise in the major and one in the minor juxtaposed in each case. The pieces are sensitive and expressive, and Bach is clearly setting off along the path to the character piece with these Polonaises. He probably played themon the clavichord, the delicate and favoured instrument of this time of sensibility.

Erik Satie: Avant-dernières Pensées (Urtext)

In a typically humorous manner Satie countered the myth of the great master?s ?last thought? with his ?Next-to-last thoughts? (Avant-dernières Pensées). As was usual with his piano works from 1912 onwards, each of the three highly distinctive pieces with their sound sensitive piano settings contained a short whimsical story printed in the musical text as a subtext, which is more or less closely connected with the music. Satie dedicated his ?Next-to-last thoughts? to prominent contemporaries: Claude Debussy (for no. 1 ?Idylle?), with whom he was close friends, Paul Dukas (no. 2 ?Aubade?, in English ?Dawn serenade?), whose music he greatly admired, and Albert Roussel (no. 3 ?Méditation?), his former teacher of counterpoint at the Schola Cantorum in Paris.

Joseph Haydn: Fruhe Streichquartette

The Weinzierl castle in Lower Austria, which still stands today, can be considered to be the birthplace of a chamber music genre, which is firmly established in our present-day repertoire. The young Haydn was invited to spend some time at this place by a wealthy musical friend and often met up with the steward at the castle, the castle priest and the cellist Anton Albrechtsberger to make music. Although his first two works for "2 violins, viola and bass" still have five movements, their musical value establishes the success of the string quartet in its own right.Also available as part of a 12 part set including all Haydn's works for String Quartet, Cat. No. HN9216

Frédéric Chopin: Ballade In F Major Op.38

When Chopin left with George Sand for his oft-cited winter sojourn on Mallorca in autumn 1838, he also took his second ballade with him, which was not yet finished. Chopin's health and other unfavourable circumstances had interfered with his work on the composition; he only completed it in winter 1839. (Also published is a facsimile of the wonderful autograph; Cat. No. HN3212.) The printing process was also delayed - not least because of the composer's considerable financial demands. Following his emigration from Warsaw and his full acceptance into Parisian musical circles, Chopin was apparently aware of the value of his music. Now presented in a single Urtext edition, this work, dedicated to Robert Schumann, has been taken from the recently revised edition of the "Ballades".

Joseph Haydn: Die Sieben Letzten Worte Unseres Erlösers Am Kreuze (The Seven Last Words On The Cross)

At the end of the 18th century, the town of Cádiz in southern Spain provided the backdrop for a Passion to mark Christ?s hour of death; its focal point was the reading and interpretation of Christ?s last words. Haydn was commissioned to write short meditative music to be played alternately with the readings. Haydn composed a work for orchestra. Due to its success, the publisher commissioned Haydn to make an arrangement for string quartet. As the wind instruments double the strings for the most part, only a few changes had to be made to the string parts. Here is the Henle Urtext Study Score of Joseph Haydn's The Seven Last Words of Christ arranged for String Quartet, based upon on the musical text of the Haydn Complete Edition.Also available as part of a 12 part set including all Haydn's works for String Quartet, Cat. No. HN9216
