Ludwig Van Beethoven: Piano Sonata No. 3 In C Op. 2 No. 3

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 op. 1, 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. 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.

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 Liszt: Hungarian Rhapsody No.2 (Urtext Edition)

We have begun with numbers 2 and 6: in the coming years we will be producing editions of all of Franz Liszt ’s “ Hungarian Rhapsodies ”, brilliant pianistic excesses and a favourite with all virtuosos. Hungarian folk music was a source of inspiration for Liszt throughout his life. The best known example is the “Rhapsodies Hongroises” for Piano, which made the characteristic syncopated rhythms of the ‘puszta’ melodies and the fiery temperament of the ‘csárdás’, famous throughout the world. The popularity of these very demanding showpieces for the Piano is shown by the countless arrangements which even include transcriptions for Orchestra.

Frederic Chopin: Nocturne In G Op. 37 No. 2

The Nocturne op. 37 no. 2, composed in 1839, is a perfect example of the rich, pearling cascades of thirds and sixths that keep Chopin’s piano works at the top of the popularity list and as beloved today as in his time. Although no autograph of op. 37 has survived, an engraver’s exemplar for the 1840 edition from Breitkopf & Härtel is extant, and was corrected by Chopin himself. We have of course consulted this source for our Urtext edition.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Serenade major K. 375 for 2 Clarinets, 2 Horns and 2 Bassoons(with parts for horns E flat and F)

Late in the evening, on his name day in 1781, Mozart was on his way to bed when he suddenly heard familiar sounds coming from outside: the six musicians who had given the première of his Serenade in E-flat Major two weeks beforehand and whom he had described as “poor fellows, but who can blow together quite nicely” had now met in the courtyard and were serenading him with his own work. Although it was officially composed for Therese Hickel, in actual fact Mozart mainly wanted to impress Emperor Joseph II, whose chief of the royal chamber music often went to Therese’s house – “That’s the reason why I also put a little effort into it”. Did it really help? At any rate Mozart was appointed imperial chamber composer by Joseph II a few years later.

Bartok: Mikrokosmos Volume 1-2 Piano

Bartók’s Mikrokosmos is one of the milestones in the pedagogical piano repertoire – and yet it is also far more than a “classical” piano primer. These 153 piano pieces, organised in ascending order of difficulty, engage not only with technical aspects of piano playing, but also with the fundamentals of composition – from “Ostinato”, “Free variations” and “Imitation and inversion” concerning compositional technique, to programmatic ideas as in “From the diary of a fly” or the famous “Six dances in Bulgarian rhythm” that form the passionate close of this unique work. This Henle Urtext Edition is based on the corresponding volume of the Bartók Complete Edition that is currently in preparation, and also includes specific practical comments and tips concerning Bartók’s own performances. Furthermore, the six volumes of the first edition, which first appeared in 1940, are here gathered together in three practical double volumes that offer both beginners and advanced pianists a perfect introduction to this work.

Johannes Brahms: Serenade No. 2 In A Major OP 16

In his Serenade no. 2 op. 16, composed in 1858?60, Johannes Brahms keeps to the usual, smaller, scoring for this genre, using pairs of winds and horns as well as low strings (no violins!). His friend Clara Schumann was ?delighted? with the work, but the public reaction was restrained and even Brahms himself was not happy with some details. Thus 15 years after the first performance he rigorously revised the serenade. Henle are now publishing this definitive version from 1875 that was ?new, revised by the author? as a study score with the musical text from the Brahms Complete Edition.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: "Wunderkind" Sonatas Volume 2 K.10-15

Leopold Mozart was only able to understand his son?s musical genius in terms of it being a God-given wonder: ?That my boy [...] knows all of this with his 8 years that could be expected of a man of forty years. In short: whoever has not seen or heard it, cannot believe it?. In 1764 Wolfgang composed six sonatas in London ? possibly after the model of Johann Christian Bach?s ?Opus 2? ? that can either be played as piano trios, as violin sonatas or simply on the piano. ?Royal? sources were consulted for the edition: the copy in the British Library bears the handwritten note: ?This Volume belongs to the Queen 1788?.With marked and unmarked string parts.

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.
