Reminiscences de Don Juan pour 2 pianos

Liszt composed the first version of his Réminiscences de Don Juan (Raabe 228, Grove 418) for the piano, for two hands, in 1841, and it was published by Schlesinger in Berlin in 1843. The date of composition of the second version for two pianos (R. 379, G. 656) is not known, but this work was also published by Schlesinger in 1877, and this publication has served as the basis for our edition. The editor's additions are indicated by square brackets, or, in case of ligatures, by broken lines.

Sonata per flauto e cZalo (pianoforte)

As sources for this present edition served the manuscript marked Mus. ms. Bach St. 296 held in the Staatsbibliothek Preussischer Kulturbesitz at Berlin. The original title reads: Sonata / a / Flauto Traverso / e / Cembalo Concertato / di / J. C. Bac h. Our edition follows closely the manuscript except for the arrangement according to present-day notation (use of accidentals, the addition of slurs to tie the appoggiatura to the main note, etc.). Obvious errors are listed in the Critical Notes. Sl urs have been but in square brackets. The basso continuo marked in the original by figuring is given here in small print. György Orbán

Das wohltemperierte Klavier BWV 870-893 II

Owing to its conceptual variety, the Wohltemperiertes Klavier constitutes one of Bach's most complete opuses. It equally comprises the world of the chorales and passions, the Baroque dance movements and concertos.The edition is based on Volume 14 of the complete edition of the Bach-Gesellschaft (Breitkopf and Härtel, Leipzig, 1864) as well as on Hermann Keller's new Urtext edition (Edition Peters, Leipzig, 1963). In shaping the text of the publication we also studied the major Urtext editions in general use today. The text variants of an Urtext validity which by and large equal the main text, are given in ossia. The editor's addenda are put in square brackets, or in the case ofligatures, are marked with broken lines.

Sutraecitations for soprano or tenor voice-for m : for soprano or tenor voice-for mezzo-soprano or bariton voice and four players. Spielpart.

Sutraecitations is vocal music composed for tenor (soprano) or bariton (mezzo-soprano) voice, three clarinets, the amplified sounds of piano, an amplifier, loudspeakers, two tuned glasses, and unidentified source(s) of noise. The piano primarily acts as a resonator. The vocal sounds at times - via microphone and an amplifier - reach a loudspeaker which is placed in close proximity to the strings of the piano. The strings are thus vibrated, while the right-foot pedal is depressed. The lyrics are sentences taken from the English version of the mahayana buddhist Avatamsaka Sutra (translated as The Flower Ornament Scripture by Th. Cleary). The original version was composed in1990-1995, the version for mezzo-soprano or baritone voice was composed in 1996. (BMC CD 013)

Handshake After Shot : for 5 performers

Suggested instrumentation: two muted trumpets (sounded on both sides of the stage), an oboe (in the centre), an electric organ (background, centre) and a cardboard box (foreground, centre). "The memory I have is seeing Fellini's Clowns - Requiem for a Circus four times in succession in 1974. There are some allusions to the last scene of the film (where clowns are sending messages to each other by means of trumpets across an empty circus-ring, while the lights go out one by one) in Handshake after Shot. The piece was composed in 1977, it has been dedicated to the late Hungarian poet, János Pilinszky." - Gyula Csapó

Zwei Bilder op. 10

'Composed in 1910, Bartók's 'Two Pictures' for orchestra, too, draws on Debussy and folk music. Indeed, the title itself is a reference to Debussy's famous piano cycle, 'Images'. The two movements, 'In Full Flower' and 'Village Dance' represent two Bartókian movement types. The first one is the delicate and intimate music of nature. Debussy's influence is most tangible here. The second movement, 'Village Dance' is only related to the previous movement through its tonal system. It is, rather, a sort of 'bone and muscle' music that belongs to the barbaro type of movements, and as such, consists of possibly the simplest elements. Long sections consist of the continual repetitionof a primitive motif. The work was first performed three years after its completion, on 25 February 1913, by the Budapest Philhamonic Orchestra, under the baton of István Kerner.'

Fruchtkorb

The 'Lullaby' to celebrate the first birthday of my son András forms the first melody of the Fruit Basket. This cycle of children's poems is full of humour and delicacy of feeling, sometimes even reminiscent of a grotesque, which makes such poems equally delightful for adults. There thus arose twelve melodies to match this cycle of very short songs with the following characteristics: the curious march of 'Kaspar' (Punch): the fabulous world of the 'Magic Box': the tenderness of 'Sunbeams': the sound of bells in 'Morning in the Village', where a cock crows and a donkey brays: the tranquillity of the forest where 'Violets' are hidden. Abstraction and humour are found in the 'StoneFrog': charm in the lyricism of the 'Lullaby': gentleness in the sound of the 'Sleigh Bells'. In a watery world there reigns the 'Frog King': while the 'Little Elf' dances with the angels: and the 'Hanswurst' (Harlequin) Serenade rings out in jocular and sad vein.

Gitarrenschule I : Gitariskola - Guitar Tutor

This publication is a completely revised edition of our five-volume guitar tutor. In the decades since the first edition, the musical interests of our students and their practice possibilities have changed. To adapt to this, we have partly expanded and partly reduced the musical and technical material of the tutor.We have increased the number of recital pieces at all levels of difficulty, so that our students can spend longer on a varied repertoire at their respective level. We have first of all selected works from the Viennese classics for this purpose but have also enriched the repertoire of the tutor with numerous pieces from the Renaissance and Baroque periods. In volumes Iand II of the tutor we have given Hungarian folk songs and children's songs a significant amount of space. In the course of revision, we have expanded the material of these two volumes with simple arrangements of folk songs, nursery rhymes and flower songs, and we have provided very easy, but valuable material for instrumental study in particular for children aged between 6 and 10. We have also expanded the chamber music material to be found at the end of the volumes, because we believe that playing music together is the best way to make instrumental study a lasting experience for our students. The parts are relatively simple, so the works provide a musical experience almost immediately.
