Selected Piano Pieces - Schumann, Robert

Selected Piano Pieces - Schumann, Robert

Robert Schumann's "Scenes of Childhood" op. 15 (1838), "Album for the Young" op. 68 (1848) and "Forest Scenes" op. 82 (1848/1849) play a major role when learning how to play the piano, as they occupy an important place in the transition from piano methods to the great piano literature. At the same time, they provide a wonderful introduction to the world of Romanticism. When Schumann composed the "Scenes of Childhood", he was not yet married to Clara and was fighting her father's disapproval. When he wrote the "Album for the Young", whose starting point was a small collection of his own pieces and arrangements of pieces by other composers for his eldest daughter's 7th birthday, Clara had already given birth to five children and lost one again. While in the "Scenes of Childhood" a reflection on childhood takes place, the "Album for the Young" actually consists of pieces for early piano lessons. Finally, the "Forest Scenes," written almost in parallel, go down in history as prime examples of Romantic character pieces in their idealization of nature as well as an expression of escapism against the backdrop of the revolutionary events of 1848/49. This collection of eleven pieces from all three work cycles is published as part of a series of popular works from the Bärenreiter catalogue for the 100th anniversary of the publishing house. The pieces are taken from the following Bärenreiter Urtext editions: "Scenes of Childhood" op. 15 (BA09639), "Album for the Young" op. 68 (BA09641), "Forest Scenes" op. 82 (BA09640). In the "Album for the Young", in addition to the famous "Advice to Young Musicians" (German, English and in Liszt's French translation), the appendix contains further pieces from the compositional environment of the Album that were unpublished during Schumann's lifetime. In all three editions, Clara Schumann's original pedal markings are included for the first time. The fingerings by Ragna Schirmer take into account historical performance practice - Clara Schumann's fingerings served as an essential starting point - as well as playing on the modern concert grand piano. · Entrance No. 1 from: Forest Scenes op. 82 · Lonely Flowers No. 3 from: Forest Scenes op. 82 · Of Distant Lands and People No. 1 from: Scenes from Childhood op. 15 · Blind Man’s Bluff No. 3 from: Scenes from Childhood op. 15 · Melody from: 43 Piano Pieces for the Young op. 68 · The Happy Farmer, Returning from Work from: 43 Piano Pieces for the Young op. 68 · A Horseman’s Piece from: 43 Piano Pieces for the Young op. 68 · The Poor Orphan from: 43 Piano Pieces for the Young op. 68 · Little Harvest Song from: 43 Piano Pieces for the Young op. 68 · Souvenirs from the Theatre from: 43 Piano Pieces for the Young op. 68 · Reverie No. 7 from: Scenes from Childhood op. 15   Volume / SeriesBÄRENREITER URTEXT Instrumentation of the workPiano solo Language(s) of textGerman, English Product formatPerformance score, Urtext edition CommentsExcerpt from BA09639, BA09640, BA09641 BindingStapled Pages / Format15 S. - 31,0 x 24,3 cm

Complete Letters in 12 Volumes : Set of 12 Books and CD-Rom

Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy as letter-writer: at the heart of 19th century European culture. As one of the most important letter-writers of the 19th century, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy maintained an extensive correspondence. With great style and eloquence he wrote letters to friends and family, letters from his travels and he also wrote to leading composers, musicians, artists as well as publishers. He corresponded with famous contemporaries such as Robert Schumann, Franz Liszt and Richard Wagner as well as Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Carl Friedrich Zelter and Alexander von Humboldt. The correspondence begins in 1816 and ends in 1847 with the composer’s death. These letters are invaluable documents shedding light not only on the genesis, publication and revision of his musical works, but also on a period when relations between Christians and Jews still had a chance to become harmonious, as Moses Mendelssohn, the imminent scholar and grandfather of the composer had advocated. This edition will therefore be of great interest far beyond the circles of musicologists and music specialists. It will appeal to those who are interested in the history of culture and ideas and to those who perceive Mendelssohn and his family as representatives of a unique, diverse cultural epoch. The complete correspondence shows that Mendelssohn not only went on to become one of the leading figures of German musical culture in the 1840s, but that he also maintained a network of musical contacts throughout Europe. The edition of the complete letters This scholarly-critical complete edition comprises 5,855 letters by Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy. Previously only a small part of his correspondence had been published and made accessible to the public. The complete edition is based on Mendelssohn letters which have been compiled over decades by Rudolf Elvers as well as on international research carried out by an academic workgroup in Leipzig spearheaded by chief editors Helmut Loos and Wilhelm Seidel. They determined 500 additional letters hitherto unknown. Versions of the letter texts have been compiled from a scholarly-critical analysis of the sources, their historical context has been discussed and comments on all points in need of explanation have been made. This edition of the complete letters consists of 12 volumes and a CD-ROM. Each volume contains indices of mentioned individuals and institutions, compositions by Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy and Fanny Hensel as well as a register of place names and currencies. In this way one obtains an all-encompassing view of this unique historical cosmos. The Complete edition has been produced to the highest standards in terms of layout, cover and binding. It is an ideal collector’s item for bibliophiles, providing an excellent means for studying the composer and the period in which he lived. The CD-ROM forms a valuable addition to the printed volumes. It offers the complete printed edition in the form of pdf. files, thereby making its approximately 9,500 pages digitally accessible and enabling letters and the corresponding commentary to be read in parallel. All terms can be located quickly and conveniently via a full text search. (The 12 volumes as well as the CD-ROM can only be purchased complete). - German text only
