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.

Robert Schumann: Paganini-Studies Op. 3 and Op. 10

Robert Schumann was fascinated by the Violin virtuoso Nicolò Paganini, as were many composers of the time. When he was planning a Piano tutor in 1832/33 that was to include his own works as well as those by others, Schumann took a close look at Paganini’s virtuosic Caprices for Violin. Schumann ’s own Caprices Op. 3 were composed in this spirit, based very closely on Paganini’s original and following their educational intention. Opus 10 , on the other hand, deals more freely with the model and is designed more with an effective performance in mind. Our Urtext edition of all of the Paganini Studies is supplemented by the composer’s extensive explanation on their execution, which he placed at the beginning of his Opus 3 .

Ernest Chausson: Piano Trio In G Minor Op. 3

**Please note: This title is not available for sale outside of the UK and Commonwealth.** Ernest Chausson 's Piano Trio In G Minor Op. 3 . Score and parts. Following his early elimination from the Paris Conservatoire's sought-after award for students of composition, the “Prix de Rome”, Ernest Chausson withdrew to the country in summer 1881 and began composing this ambitious work – out of defiance, so to speak. During his lifetime the trio remained an insider’s tip amongst those close to his teacher César Franck. It was only after its posthumous publication that it was performed more frequently and was gradually recognized as being one of the best chamber music works of its time. The Piano Trio In G Minor Op. 3 is closely based on Franck’s principle of the cyclic interleaving of all motives, yet still has dark and melancholy inflections all of its own. The Henle Urtext edition is the first critical edition and is a welcome addition to their collection of French music.

Ludwig van Beethoven: 3 Variation Works WoO 70, 64, 77

This small volume comprises three variation cycles of Beethoven’s which are brought together in Urtext editions that are technically fairly easy to master (level of difficulty 3-5). Two of them, the Variations on a Swiss Song WoO 64 and the Variations on an original theme WoO 77, are already marked as “faciles” or “très faciles” in the titles of the respective first editions. When Beethoven sent a manuscript of the Variations on a Theme from Paisiello’s opera La Molinara to the lady for whom he had written the work, he is said to have added the words: “They are so easy that the lady should be able to sight-read them.” It is clear that such remarks were not to be taken tooseriously, all three variation cycles boast both musical and technical challenges.

Ludwig van Beethoven: String Trios op. 3, 8 and 9 and String Duo WoO 32

As the opus numbers suggest, the five string trios are relatively early works. Beethoven had sent opus 3 to print in early 1796, and in the same year, he began his compositional work on the Serenade op. 8, which was then followed by the three Trios op. 9. This marked the definitive close of Beethoven’s work on this genre. Nevertheless, the five pieces are thoroughbred Beethoven and often played to this day. Also included in the volume is the piece designated in the autograph as “Duet for two obbligato eye-glasses” that Beethoven had apparently written for two myopic friends.

Ludwig Van Beethoven: Piano Sonata No. 3 In C Op. 2 No. 3

Beethoven’s three Piano sonatas op. 2 were the first works in this genre to which he gave an opus number, thus signalling to the music world the special importance that he assigned to them. He wrote them during his first years in Vienna and, along with his op. 1 piano trios op. 1, they helped to establish his reputation as one of the most significant composers of his time. These three sonatas – all of them small masterpieces – are arranged in ascending order of difficulty and virtuosity. This large-scale Sonata in C is notable for its swift outer movements, marked Allegro con brio and Allegro assai respectively. They demand a considerable degree of virtuosity from even experienced performers. If all goes well, the audience will marvel! Murray Perahia’s fingerings have been tried and tested over several decades of performing these works, and offer a new approach to these milestones of the piano repertoire.

Johannes Brahms: 3 Intermezzi Op. 117

The three popular Intermezzi Op. 117 can be seen as the epitome of Brahms? late work for Piano. Clara Schumann confessed: ?In these pieces I at last feel musical life stir once again in my soul?. Brahms reacted, as he often did, in a rather brusque manner. Although he sometimes described the three Intermezzi as being ?Wiegenlieder? (lullabies), he formally rejected this title: ?It should then say, lullaby of an unhappy mother or of a disconsolate bachelor.? The new edition of these moderately difficult Intermezzi has now been revised following the musical text of the Brahms Complete Edition, and has fingerings by Andreas Boyde.

Bartok: Mikrokosmos Volume 3-4 Piano

Bartók’s Mikrokosmos is one of the milestones in the pedagogical piano repertoire – and yet it is also far more than a “classical” piano primer. These 153 piano pieces, organised in ascending order of difficulty, engage not only with technical aspects of piano playing, but also with the fundamentals of composition – from “Ostinato”, “Free variations” and “Imitation and inversion” concerning compositional technique, to programmatic ideas as in “From the diary of a fly” or the famous “Six dances in Bulgarian rhythm” that form the passionate close of this unique work. This Henle Urtext Edition is based on the corresponding volume of the Bartók Complete Edition that is currently in preparation, and also includes specific practical comments and tips concerning Bartók’s own performances. Furthermore, the six volumes of the first edition, which first appeared in 1940, are here gathered together in three practical double volumes that offer both beginners and advanced pianists a perfect introduction to this work.

Alban Berg: String Quartet Op. 3

Alban Berg ’s String Quartet can be considered to be one of the founding works of the Second Viennese School. Already composed in 1910 and first published in 1920, it was the last composition the 25-year-old wrote under the tutelage of Arnold Schoenberg, who admired “ the fullness and unconstraint of his musical language, the strength and sureness of its presentation, its careful working and significant originality ”. Even today the extremely complex work places the highest technical demands on the interpreters.

Even today the extremely complex work places the highest technical demands on the interpreters; for this reason this edition contains parts that are especially good to play from, in which each musician can also follow what is going on in the other parts.

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.?
