Johannes Brahms' Sonata Movement (Sonatensatz 1853) arranged for Cello and Piano by Watson Forbes.

Encouragé par le succès de sa version de Schubert Arpeggione Sonata enregistrées sur CD avec le soliste, David Geringas, Heribert Breuer présente aujourd'hui un autre arrangement pour l'instrumentation même, à savoir le violoncelle Sonate #1 opus 38 de Johannes Brahms. En raison de sa texture distinctement polyphonique, cette composition qui, à l'égard du thème, retombe sur l'Art de Fugue de Bach, dans les mouvements externes semblait idéale pour attiser sur la partie de piano au spectre sonore des six instruments plutôt variables. Surtout la fugue concluant le travail évoque l'impression d'une 'Symphonie de chambre' dans lequel la structure compositionnelle est beaucoup plus clairement audible que ce qui est possible dans la version originale. / Violoncelle, Quintette A Vent Et Contrebasse

In 1922 Maurice Ravel heard the young Hungarian violin virtuoso and niece of Joseph Joachim, Jelly D'Aranyi, in concert in London. Following the performance, Ravel spent the remainder of the evening requesting D'Aranyi to play numerous gypsy tunes on her violin, probing her on the technical limits of the instrument. The result of this encounter is Ravel's virtuoso classic 'Tzigane?. Written originally for violin and piano or luthéal (a mechanism invented in 1919 that attaches to a piano, producing a sound similar to the rich overtones of the Cimbalon), the premiere took place in London in April 1924. The composer had finished the work only days beforehand. Ravel later orchestrated 'Tzigane? and both versions remain a 'must? for music-lovers and aspiring violinists today. Jelly D'Aranyi performed both versions regularly throughout her long career. This Urtext edition presents the first scholarly-critical edition of Ravel's masterpiece. It is published both in the orchestral version, complete with full score and performance material, as well as in the composer's earlier version for violin and piano. All known sources, including letters, have been drawn on for the new edition - one of the available sources, consulted for the first time, was a copy of 'Tzigane? from the estate of Jelly D'Aranyi, which is today part of a private collection. The version for piano and violin contains, besides the Urtext part, a second violin part as a facsimile with performance instructions by Jelly D'Aranyi. D'Aranyi's alterations and fingering reflect how Ravel must have heard the work in rehearsals and performance and as such are a document of early 20th century performance practice. The cooperation between Ravel and D'Aranyi is comparable to that of Brahms and Joachim working on the Brahms violin concerto.- First scholarly-critical Urtext edition of the work - Presented are both versions: for violin and orchestra and for violin and piano- Includes Jelly D'Aranyi's fingering / Violoncelle

Having been the conductor of the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra for many years Carl Reinecke was one of the most important figures among musicians in the second half of the 19th century. His three sonatas for Violoncello and Piano are of amazing musical quality which puts them right up with sonatas of Johannes Brahms. It is all the more surprising however that a noteworthy Urtext edition of these works did not exist up until now; cellists often had to fall back on copies of the first editions only a few of which were extant. This gap is now closed by the Wiener Urtext Edition - right in time for the 100th anniversary of the composer's death. Itencompasses all three sonatas in one volume thus adding three masterpieces of Romantic chamber music to the less than comprehensive repertoire of the 19th century for Violoncello and Piano.

Sonate pour violoncelle en Fa majeur op. 6

Outre le Quatuor avec piano op. 13 et la Sonate pour violon op. 18, la Sonate pour violoncelle op. 6 fait partie des œuvres de musique de chambre les plus accomplies parmi l’œuvre de jeunesse de Strauss. Les influences de Mendelssohn, Schumann et Brahms se font sentir, mais laissent cependant assez de place à un langage sonore bien spécifique comportant souvent de surprenantes tournures rythmiques et mélodiques. La première version établie au printemps 1881 fut soumise par Strauss à une révision en profondeur au cours de l’hiver 1882/83: le mouvement initial fut fondamentalement retravaillé et les deux mouvements suivants furent intégralement composés à neuf.
Cela en valait apparemment la peine, car, après la première exécution à Dresde, le compositeur écrivit à sa mère: «Ma Sonate a extraordinairement plu, elle a obtenu des applaudissements colossaux, j’ai été félicité de toute part.» / Partitions classique / Cordes / Violoncelle / HENLE VERLAG
