Liszt: Années de pèlerinage : Deuxième année - Italie (S161) / Venezia e Napoli (S162)

While the first volume of Liszt’s Années de pèlerinage (‘Pilgrim Years’) was inspired primarily by the landscape of Switzerland, the creative impetus for the second volume was the art and literature of Italy. Edition Peters is proud to continue its acclaimed series of Liszt critical editions from world-renowned Liszt expert and concert pianist Leslie Howard with this new urtext edition of Années de pèlerinage, Deuxième Année – Italie. Containing an extensive critical commentary and introductory notes, the edition (like its predecessor Suisse (EP72782)) also contains reproductions of the half-tint illustrations by Robert Kretschmer that appeared in the first edition. Also included in this prestige volume, a must-have for any serious Liszt pianist, is the supplementary volume Venezia e Napoli, beautiful and ingenious revisions of earlier works based on Italian street music.

Death : for Mezzo Soprano and Piano

Death av Tyshawn Sorey beställdes av L. A. Opera för en streamingpremiär av mezzosopranen Amanda Lynn Bottoms i februari 2021, med pianisten Howard Watkins. Dess text, av den store svarta poeten Paul Laurence Dunbar, föreställer sig bara en glimt av ljus som går upp över ett dystert, mardrömslikt landskap, hemsökt av döden, som kompositören uttryckligen kopplar till "de nuvarande förhållandena och osäkerheten i det svarta livet i Amerika under den 20:e och 2000-talet". (Dunbar själv dog 1906 vid 33 års ålder). Denna långsamma och melankoliska inställning utökar dikten till en femminuters klagan. Detta piano-/sångpartitur innehåller hela diktens text samt en kort programanteckning från kompositören. För att förtydliga de rasmässiga sammanhangen kring stycket, begär Sorey att rollerna som både sångare och pianist uteslutande ska spelas av svarta amerikanska artister.

Sonatas For Piano Volume 1

The present edition sets out to establish a reliable text that brings out Mozarts performing style by drawing on all the relevant sources, foremost among which are the earleist printed editions and the composers autograph scores. Valuable help inthis direction was provided by earlier Urtext editions, especially the one by Max Pauer and Martin Frey, on whose findings the present editors have based their work. Contents: K279, 280, 281, 282, 283, 284, 309, 310, 311, 330

A Prayer

British composer Ken Burton uses the writing of Paul Laurence Dunbar (1872 1906), the black American son of emancipated slaves, in his 3-minute work A Prayer. The text of the three verses is bitter-sweet, filled with hope andsadness, and the music combines with this to make a rhythmically simple reflective evening hymn. Burton draws on Spiritual, Gospel and Blues to write a piece for SATB with divisi that will be a popular piece both to sing and tohear. New commission from The Jason Max Ferdinand Singers and premiered in their inaugural concert as part of the online LIVE from London Spring Festival 2021. Follows Descend to Earth, VOCES8’s own commission of Ken Burton inthe LIVE from London Christmas Festival 2020.
