Max Reger: 10 Little Pieces op. 44

Max Reger: 10 Little Pieces op. 44

In his numerous collections of small character pieces, the imaginative Max Reger gradually developed a style of his own, in the shadow of the Romantic epigones. His music is characterised by modulating harmonies with a simultaneous recourse to classical formal tropes. So it is very worthwhile to take a closer look at the “Ten Small Concert Pieces” op. 44 from 1899, which display astonishing harmonic boldness. Ten short concert pieces of moderate difficulty, with titles such as “Album Leaf”, “Burletta”, “Once upon a time”, or simply “Capriccio” form a series and introduce the pianist to Reger’s piano oeuvre. The composer’s original fingerings make this carefully editedUrtext edition especially interesting.

Maurice Ravel: Jeux d'eau (Henle Urtext Edition)

Maurice Ravel: Jeux d'eau (Henle Urtext Edition)

The sounds made by water – those of fountains, waterfalls and streams – were a popular subject in musical impressionism. Liszt had already explored this in his “Jeux d’eaux à la Villa d’Este”, and it was also a subject that inspired Ravel . At the same time he broke fresh compositional ground: in his “ Jeux d’eau ” he developed a kind of floating harmony and created new tonal effects. These shimmering tone paintings are among the first of our Urtext editions by this important French master. In order to provide musicians with a first-rate engraving for this highly complex music, we have slightly increased our Urtext format – and can thus guarantee excellent readability.

Leos Janácek: In The Mists

Leos Janácek: In The Mists

Piano music occupies a small, but nevertheless musically important place in Leos Janácek 's oeuvre. This Henle Urtext Edition of the composer's In The Mists by the seasoned Janácek editor Jirí Zahrádka is an impressive example of this. This small cycle was composed in 1912 and was published for the first time the following year. But as was so often the case, Janácek was prompted to revise it. Following the first performance of the work in Prague by the pianist Stepán Václav in December 1922, the composer and interpreter jointly undertook a revision, which was published in 1924. Henle is now publishing this definitive version in an Urtext edition, which also provides convincing solutions for practical questions, such as how to deal with inconsistent pedal markings by Václav and Janácek .

Edvard Grieg: Sonata For Piano And Violin In C Minor Op.45

Edvard Grieg: Sonata For Piano And Violin In C Minor Op.45

Grieg ’s third Violin Sonata is one of his major creations and stands alongside the sonatas of Johannes Brahms and César Franck at the pinnacle of late nineteenth century chamber music. One small measure of the work’s renown is its occurrence in Thomas Mann’s novel "Doktor Faustus". The sonata has been growing more popular ever since its first publication, and it is now high time for it to appear in an urtext edition from Henle. A preface and detailed editorial notes provide interesting background material on the work’s source tradition.

Marko Tajcevic: Songs from the Mur-Island, Little Pieces for Piano

Marko Tajcevic: Songs from the Mur-Island, Little Pieces for Piano

Marko Tajcevic (1900-1984) was a Croatian composer, teacher, and music critic. He was a slow and meticulous composer, completing only 54 works in his lifetime. He confined himself to small-scale chamber works, and was considered to be the “Master of the Miniature”. Like many of his works, Songs from the Mur-Island (1938) was inspired by folk-songs from his homeland. The Mur-Island is a county in the far north of Croatia, bordered by the River Mur. These Little Pieces for Piano are suitable for any pianist of Grade 3 standard, and are sure to provide a unusual and welcome diversion from the usual exam-style pieces.

Claude Debussy: Danse (Tarentelle Styrienne)

Claude Debussy: Danse (Tarentelle Styrienne)

Debussy ’s early Piano piece Tarentelle Styrienne was published by Choudens in 1891. In 1903 the composer had it reissued under the new title Danse , with a few small revisions, by Fromont, with whom he worked a great deal at the time. He probably did not like the original title for this showpiece. Although Styriennes (Styrian dances) were fashionable in salon music, one tends to think of dances such as the Ländler, rather than the tarantella of southern Italy. Following Debussy ’s death in 1918, Maurice Ravel was asked to develop the Danse into a version for orchestra, and it was first performed in 1923.

W.A. Mozart: Sonata In F K.533/494

W.A. Mozart: Sonata In F K.533/494

Mozart assembled this sonata from two parts that had been composed at different times. The Rondo K. 494 is from 1786. It was only in January 1788 that Mozart composed the two pieces K. 533, and had Hoffmeister in Vienna publish the three movements as a sonata. To this end he did, however, thoroughly rework the Rondo, incorporating a small fugue-like passage - perhaps to bring the finale closer to the other two movements. In its final version the work shows how intensively Mozart had looked into the style of Bach and Handel at the time. Henle are now offering this sonata, included in the complete volume, as an attractive single edition with a new preface by the editor.

Carl Nielsen: Fantasy Pieces Op. 2 For Oboe And Piano

Carl Nielsen: Fantasy Pieces Op. 2 For Oboe And Piano

Carl Nielsen ’s Fantasy Pieces for Oboe and Piano were composed in 1889/90. Having just gained a position as a violinist in the Royal Danish Orchestra, Nielsen had already experienced success with his String Suite Op. 1 both as a composer and as a conductor. Several sketches and autographs bear witness to his intensive work on these contrasting pieces for Oboe, which were to appear in 1890 as his Opus 2. The two movements, Romance and Humoreske, are dedicated to the oboist Olivo Krause who played in the royal orchestra. His beautiful tone and virtuosic technique probably played no small part in the fact that these miniatures by the “young, talented composer” took the public and critics by storm at their first performance in March 1891.

Gabriel Fauré: Dolly

Gabriel Fauré: Dolly

The six pieces in Gabriel Fauré' s Dolly suite were inspired by the young daughter of the composer's friend Emma Bardac. The girl was born in 1892 and called “Dolly” on account of her small, delicate figure. These pieces were composed mainly for Dolly's birthday or the New Year, and reflect the world as experienced by the growing child, from a lullaby to a temperamental dance. The suite was not meant to be taken too seriously, as shown by the subtle allusions to his own music and that of others. Despite their simple basic structure these pieces, which soon became popular, contain numerous harmonic and rhythmic subtleties typical of the French composer – “children’s music” that is also well suited to adults.

Johannes Brahms: Variations Op.21 No.1 And 2

Johannes Brahms: Variations Op.21 No.1 And 2

Brahms began his career as a pianist. His contribution to the piano music of the 19th century is significant in two respects: following Schubert and Schumann he cultivated the small, lyrical form, while as Beethoven’s successor he admitted large forms such as the piano sonata and variation cycle. His two variation cycles op. 21, published in 1862, place great demands on the performer. In the first cycle, on a lyrical theme in D major, the technique of figurative and contrapuntal alterations is highly developed. The “Variations on a Hungarian Song” should be a refreshing challenge for the advanced pianist, owing to their metrical features and their virtuoso temperament. We wereable to engage Canadian musicologist Margit L. McCorkle as the editor. Together with her husband she also compiled the “Thematic-Bibliographic Catalogue” of Brahms’s works.

Johannes Brahms: Symphony No.2 In D Op.73 (Henle Score)

Johannes Brahms: Symphony No.2 In D Op.73 (Henle Score)

During composition of his First Symphony, Brahms was still very much under Beethoven's influence - in his Second Symphony he loosened the ties considerably. The principle of motivic embellishment now infuses not just thedevelopment section but the whole of the first movement. In the following movements, too, everything appears to be interrelated. The premiere in Vienna's Musikverein was one of the greatest triumphs of Brahms's career, and hewrote enthusiastically: The orchestra here rehearsed, played, and praised me with a zeal that has never happened to me before. With the aid of this study-score edition, conductors, students and Brahms aficionados can enjoy theUrtext of the Brahms Complete Edition (likewise published by Henle) in a convenient small format. In his preface, the editor - Brahms expert Robert Pascall - presents interesting information about the work's genesis andpublishing history.

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

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.

W.A. Mozart: Piano Sonata In C K.309 (284b) - Urtext

W.A. Mozart: Piano Sonata In C K.309 (284b) - Urtext

?I wish to do it to reflect the character of Mad:selle Rose,? Mozart replied when asked how he intended to set out the Andante of his Sonata in C major. In autumn 1777 he had got to know Rosina Cannabich in Mannheim and during her lessons immediately introduced her to the Sonata K. 309 that he had composed for her. Indeed, in December 1777 according to her teacher she was already able to perform it ?excellently?. So that a great many other pupils might follow in her footsteps, Henle are now publishing this small gem that shows Mozart?s great skill in composing for the piano as a single edition with a new preface by the editor; it was previously only available in the complete volumes (HN1 and HN3).

W.A. Mozart: Piano Sonatas Volume II

W.A. Mozart: Piano Sonatas Volume II

When Günter Henle founded his Urtext publishing house in 1948, he opened his catalogue with our two-volume edition of Mozart’s complete piano sonatas, these still bear the publisher’s numbers HN 1 and HN 2. The four-digit order numbers HN 9001 and 9002 merely designate the reduced-sized pocket scores of these larger reference editions, and are textually exactly the same. Naturally, both Mozart volumes (large and small) have been revised many times over the years, enabling G. Henle Verlag, unlike other music publishers, to guarantee that they offer a musical text that reflects the most current state of research. Mozart’s autograph manuscript survives for many of the sonatas, andfor some works the composer lightly revised and enriched his text before printing, which is why the Henle Urtext edition reproduces both versions in such cases. The editor’s preface and Critical Commentary provide detailed information about all sources and textual issues.

Georges Bizet: Jeux D'Enfants Op. 22

Georges Bizet: Jeux D'Enfants Op. 22

Georges Bizet was not eminent as a piano composer, for the number of his piano works is small and not very substantial in terms of form, content and character. Yet there is an exception: the “Jeux d’enfants” for piano four hands from 1871. In this loosely-connected series of twelve short and very terse genre pieces Bizet crafted a charming masterwork. With an unpretentious simplicity that is full of French ‘esprit’, he creates a unique and distinctive mood in each of the miniatures and the textural-harmonic means employed already point in the direction of Ravel and Debussy! Unfortunately, much of his compositional audacity was smoothed out in the first edition of 1872, makingit all the more important that our Urtext edition also takes Bizet’s autograph into account. The preface and comments go into detail about all the discrepancies of the first edition, thereby offering a fascinating glimpse into publishing history.

Ludwig Van Beethoven: Piano Sonata No. 2 A Major Op. 2 No. 2

Ludwig Van Beethoven: Piano Sonata No. 2 A Major Op. 2 No. 2

Ludwig van 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, 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. At the heart of this A-major Sonata is the well-known, profound Largo appassionato movement, whose staccato bass line is reminiscent of double bass pizzicati. It stands in stark contrast to the nimble Rondo-Finale, whose theme returns each time with ever more elaborate arabesques. 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.

Franz Schubert: Piano Sonatas, Volume III (Early and Unfinished Sonatas) revised edition

Franz Schubert: Piano Sonatas, Volume III (Early and Unfinished Sonatas) revised edition

Schubert’s 22 piano sonatas sketch a most illuminating picture of the prematurely departed composer and of his compositional path. From the first attempts of the gifted 16- to 19-year- old musician one can trace a continuous development leading to the five great sonatas which he wrote in the years 1823 and 1826, and finally to the three masterworks written shortly before his death, which place him on a level with Beethoven as a composer of sonatas. The intensity with which Schubert approached the genre of the piano sonata meant that he left a large number of piano sonatas incomplete. Volume III of the three-part Henle Urtext edition contains next to the earlysonatas from the years 1815-1818 the fragments completed by Paul Badura-Skoda, whose completions are highlighted each time by small cue notes. The Critical Report in the Appendix also provides precise information about the genesis of the individual works.

Stephen Heller: Ausgewahlte Klavierwerke Charakterstucke (Urtext)

Stephen Heller: Ausgewahlte Klavierwerke Charakterstucke (Urtext)

In this volume are to be found many small but pleasing piano pieces by the 19th-century composer Stephen Heller. The majority are of only medium difficulty, but their sound always has a particular charm. In 1853 Heller wrote to his publisher that he “had not sought to write many words” here, but wanted to suggest something “substantial and meaningful” in “just a few strokes”. Our volume provides valuable insights into Heller’s artistic development and is entirely devoted to the “character piece”, a form that comprises the major part of his compositional output. Examples include “Die kleine Bettlerin” [The little beggar-girl], “Nach erquickender Rast” [After a refreshing rest] and“Weinendes Kind” [Crying child] scenes that conjure up and express a particular mood. As Ursula Kersten writes in her preface, Heller’s music already makes one think of Impressionism, and repays the effort involved in getting to know the composer of this volume more closely.

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.
