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

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.

Piano Sonata No. 2 G Sharp Minor Op. 19 (Sonate-Fantaisie)

Piano Sonata No. 2 G Sharp Minor Op. 19 (Sonate-Fantaisie)

Piano Sonata No. 2 G Sharp Minor Op. 19 (Sonate-Fantaisie) was composed over a relatively lengthy period of time. Alexander Scriabin first began work on it in 1892, but in the summer of 1896, after Scriabin had performed the sonata several times in public in Paris, he told his publisher that the piece was finished but even despite having revised it 7 times he was still completely dissatisfied with it. It was not till 1898 that the work was in Scriabin's eyes good enough to be finally published.

Johannes Brahms: Clarinet Sonatas Op. 120 (Clarinet in B Flat)

Johannes Brahms: Clarinet Sonatas Op. 120 (Clarinet in B Flat)

In 1894 Johannes Brahms asked the clarinettist Richard Mühlfeld to visit him during his beloved summer sojourn in Ischl, adding ?It would be really wonderful if you brought your B flat Clarinet with you, and if you were in no great hurry? ? for the two Sonatas Op. 120 were waiting to be rehearsed. The first performances were given privately directly afterwards and the press enthusiastically reported: ?The sonatas [...] are wonderful and will cause a great sensation?. These were the last chamber pieces Brahms wrote before his death and are considered two of the great masterpieces in the Clarinet repertoire.

Sergei Rachmaninoff: Prelude In G Op.32 No.5

Sergei Rachmaninoff: Prelude In G Op.32 No.5

Sergei Rachmaninoff ’s second book of Préludes, Op. 32, was written in the summer of 1910 whilst the composer was staying his family’s idyllic country house in Ivanovka. This sleepy, rural area inspired the composer to write this wonderful, impressionistic G-Major Prélude . The piece is not very difficult, and is thus also suitable for advanced amateur pianists. Thanks to the cooperation of the Glinka Archive in Moscow, all the autograph sources were consulted for this Henle Urtext edition of the Préludes. As in all of Henle’s Rachmaninoff editions, the fingerings are by Marc-André Hamelin.

Felix Mendelssohn: Six Children's Pieces Op. 72

Felix Mendelssohn: Six Children's Pieces Op. 72

During his summer holiday of 1842 Mendelssohn wrote four Piano miniatures in each of the albums of two children to whom he was related. Years later he revised the pieces. In so doing, he deleted two of them, put the remaining ones in a new sequence and published them under the title Children's Pieces. Mendelssohn died shortly before the edition was published in 1848. Even though published posthumously, Mendelssohn initiated the first edition himself which is why it is the primary source for this edition. The two pieces that Mendelssohn did not include in his opus 72 are contained in the appendix.

Frederic Chopin: Berceuse D Flat Major Op. 57

Frederic Chopin: Berceuse D Flat Major Op. 57

Berceuse in D Flat Major was written in the summer of 1843, and is one of Chopin’s most mature and delicate works. It consists of a series of variations on a tender lullaby theme from the composer’s childhood. Somewhat unusually, the variations are uninterrupted; they flow seamlessly from one into the next, sustained by an unchanging Bass ostinato. Frédéric Chopin (1710-1849) was a Polish composer and virtuoso pianist, whose compositional career was spent mostly in Paris. He only wrote music for the Piano, and is best known today for his 12 Etudes and 24 Preludes , a key part of any pianist’s repertoire.

Claude Debussy: Piano Trio In G (Urtext Edition)

Claude Debussy: Piano Trio In G (Urtext Edition)

Debussy composed this work in summer 1880 in Fiesole, Italy, when he was 18 years old. At the time he was the musical travelling companion of Nadescha von Meck, Tschaikowsky’s famous patroness. Most of the autograph material was thought to have been lost and was only discovered over 100 years later, in 1982, in the estate of Debussy ’s pupil Maurice Dumesnil. When Henle published the first edition in 1986, the music world welcomed the Trio with open arms. Ensembles rushed to play it, and numerous recordings followed. Although formal conventions prevail, the work displays a melodic freshness as well as inflections and phrases that are typical of Debussy .

Johannes Brahms: Fantasien Op.116

Johannes Brahms: Fantasien Op.116

Johannes Brahms presumably wrote the Fantasies op. 116 at the same time as the Intermezzi op. 117 in the summer of 1892 in Bad Ischl. His sojourn in the Salzkammergut obviously inspired Brahms to write music for solo piano, as a year later he workedon other cycles when he was there. Amongst these late melancholy piano pieces, op. 116 is in particular characterised by opposites. Four “dreamy” according to Clara Schumann intermezzi are juxtaposed with three “deeply passionate” capricci. Sevenpieces in true Brahms’ style, which are also accessible to non-virtuosos due to their medium level of difficulty. Our revision contains the musical text of the new Brahms Complete Edition.

Claude Debussy: Masques

Claude Debussy: Masques

The work was originally intended as part of the Suite bergamasque (HN 381), like L’Isle joyeuse (HN 386). Yet in the end Debussy chose other pieces for the Suite, and published Masques and L’Isle joyeuse separately in September and October 1904 as new compositions. Both pieces were written in summer 1904, a particularly turbulent period in Debussy ’s life, as he had just left his first wife Lilly for Emma Bardac. The Masques appear to be much more reserved and at the same time more mysterious than the Isle joyeuse. The Catalonian virtuoso Ricardo Viñes gave the premières of both works, which have remained extremely successful to this day.

Claude Debussy: Douze Etudes (Henle Urtext Edition)

Claude Debussy: Douze Etudes (Henle Urtext Edition)

Debussy composed this cycle, and other masterful late works, in the summer of 1915. He had withdrawn to a country house near Dieppe with his family and composed with fevered concentration. The self-critical composer was very proud of his Études : “I confess that I am pleased to have created a work which – false vanity aside – will occupy a special niche. In point of technique these Études will usefully prepare pianists for a better understanding of the fact that the portals of music can only be opened with formidable hands”. Debussy ’s Études are today a milestone along the path of those desirous of becoming concert pianists.

Frédéric Chopin: Berceuse In D Flat Op. 57

Frédéric Chopin: Berceuse In D Flat Op. 57

Frédéric Chopin spent his fifth summer at George Sand’s country estate in Nohant in 1844. The time away from Paris gave the composer the necessary creative free space to produce the delicate Berceuse (lullaby) as well as the B minor sonata that year. The former is known for its dreamy, exquisite ambient sound – and yet it still numbers amongst Chopin’s most fabricated works. It was originally intended to have the somewhat sober title “Variantes”: a sketch shows how Chopin conceived these “Variantes”. The genesis and source situation are explored in this Henle revised edition that reflects the latest scholarly findings. A classic with a new look in the Henle catalogue.

Franz Liszt: Valse Oubliée No. 1

Franz Liszt: Valse Oubliée No. 1

In summer 1881 Franz Liszt composed a work that he called “ Valse Oubliée ” (Forgotten waltz) in a letter to his publisher. The work is reminiscent of the appealing Piano waltzes that the composer used to write when he was younger – although there is a certain distance to the usual waltz style. Liszt by no means renounces virtuosity and elegance, but rather infuses these characteristics with nostalgia and irony by embedding typical melodic and rhythmic elements of salon waltzes in innovative, harmonically alienating progressions. In the years that followed he wrote three further “ Valses Oubliées ”, yet number 1, published here in a single edition, has remained the best-loved of these “Forgotten waltzes” by far.

Franz Schubert: Duos for Piano and Violin

Franz Schubert: Duos for Piano and Violin

Schubert’s three grand duos for violin and piano occupy pride of place among his foremost works. In the A major Sonata D 574 of summer 1817 he continued to elaborate what was still a simple interplay of the violin and piano in the violin sonatinas (see HN 6) and reached his greatest mastery here. He increased the intensity of his writing into genuine virtuosity in the b minor Rondo D 895 composed in late 1826. The critics of Schubert’s day were already praising “the bold master of harmony” and “the fiery fantasy” of the piece. In the Fantasie in C major D 934, written one year later, Schubert brackets an Andantino with Variations on the song “Sei mir gegrüsst” D 741 withsections that are tastefully interwoven with the theme of the lied.

Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy: Piano Trios

Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy: Piano Trios

After an early work and a discontinued attempt in 1831/32 Mendelssohn made his breakthrough in this important chamber music genre in the summer of 1839 with the Piano Trio in d minor op. 49, which was to be followed six years later by the Trio in c minor op. 66. On publication of the first trio, Schumann took the opportunity to describe the composer as the “Mozart of the 19th century”, whereby he was obviously alluding to the mixture of Classical and Romantic stylistic elements. The musical text of these two famous Trios has been thoroughly revised to reflect the latest scholarly findings. In addition HN 1297 also includes a Flute part for the alternative version of op. 49 (Flute instead of Violin) that Mendelssohn himself made.

Felix Mendelssohn: String Quartets Op.12/13

Felix Mendelssohn: String Quartets Op.12/13

The string quartet is generally considered as the chamber-music genre of the classical era: invented by Haydn, elaborated by Haydn and Mozart, and brought to its compositional peak by Beethoven. All later quartet composers had to measure themselves against the works of these three masters. This applies first and foremost to Mendelssohn, who has always been called a “classical romantic.” His Quartet in a minor op. 13 in particular is said to have strong Beethovenian stylistic traits. It was composed in late summer and fall 1827, shortly after Beethoven’s late quartets appeared in print, works that Mendelssohn was no doubt familiar with. The Quartet in E flat major op. 12 was written two years later, during Mendelssohn’s first tour of England. A textually identical score of the two quartets is published in Henle’s Study Scores series (HN 9270).

Dvorak: Humoresques Op 101 Piano

Dvorak: Humoresques Op 101 Piano

In the summer of 1894, Antonín Dvořák interrupted his stay in America in order to spend his holidays back in his homeland of Bohemia. During those happy weeks, he wrote his eight Humoresques for piano. But this music is not by no means as “Bohemian” as one might suppose. We know that Dvořák had already sketched some of the material for these pieces in New York, and there are also indications that the composer initially considered writing a series of Scottish dances. In other words, these are thoroughly international pieces, with an inflexion all of their own. And they are of a medium level of difficulty, enabling pianists of all ages to discover a lot more than just the famous, catchy tune of no. 7. This Henle Urtext edition is based on the first print, which the editors have carefully checked against the autograph.

Faure: Nocturne No 6 In D Flat Major Op 63 Piano

Faure: Nocturne No 6 In D Flat Major Op 63 Piano

Fauré’s 13 Nocturnes form the most significant group of piano character pieces in his oeuvre. Despite their title – which places them in the tradition of John Field and Frédéric Chopin – Fauré here develops a genre all of his own. These are no dreamy scenes of the night, but carefully structured, iridescent pieces that alternate between lyrical elegance and passionate drama. Fauré composed the 6th Nocturne in 1894, while spending the summer at the house of his parents-in-law. With its strong contrasts of tempo, metre and harmony, it is by far the most significant and best-known of his Nocturnes. In a letter that he wrote after completing it, Fauré wrote: “Modern piano music that is a little interesting is an extremely rare thing” – a state of affairs that seems to have been a good enough incentive for him to enrich the repertoire with his Nocturne op. 63!

Johannes Brahms: Piano Pieces Op. 118, Nos. 1- 6 (Henle Urtext Edition)

Johannes Brahms: Piano Pieces Op. 118, Nos. 1- 6 (Henle Urtext Edition)

**Not for sale outside of the UK and Commonwealth** Johannes Brahms ' Piano Pieces Op. 118 Nos. 1- 6. Henle Urtext edition. When his contemporaries heard the works that Johannes Brahms had composed during his summer holiday in Ischl in 1893 – the Piano Pieces Op. 118 –, they were delighted. Clara Schumann was one of the first to be allowed to get to know the new pieces, and she attested that they contained “a wealth of sentiment in the smallest of dimensions”. Philipp Spitta fittingly said that the works were “perfect for slowly absorbing in solitude and tranquillity”. Opus 118 contains two of the composer’s best-known miniatures – the Intermezzo in A major and the Romanze in F major. This volume, based on the musical text in the New Brahms Complete Edition, is highly recommended to all those who wish to immerse themselves in the world of Brahms ' late works.

Johannes Brahms: Sonatas for Piano and Violin

Johannes Brahms: Sonatas for Piano and Violin

Johannes Brahms began to manifest a keen interest in the genre of the violin sonata at an early age. In fall 1853 he offered the Leipzig publisher a violin sonata in a minor. The work was turned down, however, and the self-critical Brahms must have destroyed it himself later. He ultimately wrote his three major sonatas during his years of maturity: op. 78 in the summers of 1878/79, opp. 100 and 108 in the summer of 1886. The Scherzo in c minor was Brahms’ contribution to the violin sonata which he composed jointly with Robert Schumann and Albert Dietrich in 1853 as a surprise gift for the violinist Joseph Joachim, and which is known under the name “F. A. E. Sonata.”With its sharp contrasts between the furious Allegro and emotional Più moderato sections, the Scherzo piece is a beloved bravura showcase.

Ernest Chausson: Piano Trio In G Minor Op. 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.

Franz Schubert: Piano Trios (Henle Urtext Edition)

Franz Schubert: Piano Trios (Henle Urtext Edition)

One needn’t hesitate a second in assigning Schubert’s two piano trios to his best works. Both were written no later than 1827, hence one year before the composer’s death, and are typical works of his maturity: abounding in blissful melodies paired with formative power and profound depths of expressiveness. Whereas Schubert had sold the E flat major Trio op. 100 D 929 to the Leipzig publisher Probst (it appeared just after Schubert’s death, however), the B flat major Trio op. 99 D 898 did not make it to publication during Schubert’s lifetime.The Adagio in E flat major op. post. 148 D 897, which is reproduced in the Appendix and which has become known as Notturno, was mostlikely originally planned as the slow movement of the B flat major Trio. With its expressiveness ascending to darkest despair, Schubert possibly considered it as unsuited for publication. It was not published until 1846, in the Appendix of this volume one will find Schubert’s first attempt in this genre, which he wrote at the age of 15 in summer 1812.
