Par SAMMARTINI. The Sonata In G For Cello And Piano was formerly attributed to Giovanni Battista Sammartini (c. 1698-1775), however scholars now attribute this piece to the French cellist and composer Martin Berteau (1709-71), one ofthe founders of the French cello tradition. The sonata for cello in G major seamlessly balances the higher register with the fundamental sonority of the cello, elegantly demonstrating the natural sonic potential of the thumbposition. The solo cello part is also included on a separate insert. / Répertoire d'Examen / Répertoire / Violoncelle et Piano

Par EARNSHAW ALFRED. A highly respected Cello teacher and performer, Alfred Earnshaw counted among his peers such notable twentieth-century composers of music for young cellists as Adam Carse and W. H. Squire. His Tarantella for Cello and Piano features on Children's Cello, the delightful collection of cello miniatures recorded by Steven Isserlis and pianist Stephen Hough on a recent BIS recording.

Par LESHNOFF JONATHAN. 'The cello is a fantastic instrument to work with,” said Leshnoff. 'Some instruments are more limited, but the cello has so much freedom. It can scream, it can cry, it can sing, it can dance and it can whisper.” The Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia commissions a new work for each Spring, and in 2013 they chose to commission Jonathan Leshnoff. In turn, Leshnoff was able to work with the exciting international talent Nina Kotova for the premiere performance under the direction of Dirk Brossé at Philadelphia's Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts.'The cello is a fantastic instrument to work with,” said Leshnoff.

The first three movements of Johannes Brahms' E minor Cello Sonata were composed in 1862, the last movement was written in 1865. During the first years of its performance the work was received with mixed enthusiasm. By the end of Brahms' life, however, it was widely performed and by the first decades of the 20th century it was firmly embedded in the repertoire of many distinguished cellists. It was notably Robert Hausmann's advocacy of the work which seems to have contributed greatly to its promotion.Of particular value to the editors were the three early performance editions of the Cello Sonata op. 38 by Cornelius van Vliet and Edwin Hughes, Hugo Becker and Carl Friedberg, as well as Julius Klengel. The cellists' van Vliet, Becker and Klengel's fingering and bowing allows for a better understanding of their performance practice. As such, the Bärenreiter edition comes with a cello part marked with fingering and bowing by the editors which are based on the practices of Brahms' contemporaries. We also provide an unmarked urtext part.An important part of this edition is the extensive preface. Firstly it informs about the works' origins, early performances, its publication as well as early reception. Truly remarkable is the unique Performance Practice Commentary. Here the editors take the premise that already a few decades after Brahms' death a widening gulf developed between the composer's expectations and the performance practices of the early 20th century. In a very concrete and practical way, the editors summarize some of the key issues in understanding Brahms' notation with regard to rhythm and timing, dynamics and accentuation, dots and strokes, slurring and non legato, piano pedalling and overholding, piano arpeggiation and dislocation, string instrument fingering, string instrument harmonics and vibrato. In this way, the edition offers an exciting and often surprising insight in Romantic musical interpretation.- A pioneering Urtext edition- With an unmarked Urtext part- With a second part including fingering and bowing based on the practices of contemporaries of Brahms- With an extensive Performance Practice Commentary- For further information on Romantic performance practice we recommend: ?Performance Practices in Johannes Brahms' Chamber Music', text booklet BA 9600 / Violoncelle Et Piano

Par POULENC FRANCIS. Composed in 1948, the Cello Sonata or Sonata for Cello and Piano by Francis Poulenc (1899-1963) was dedicated to Pierre Fournier, the French cellist. Its four movements, mainly ternary, are as listed below: - Allegro (Tempo di Marcia) - Cavatine - Ballabile - Finale Pierre Fournier partly helped Francis Poulenc to compose the Cello part as this latter was not a specialist of this instrument. Francis Poulenc is French composer and pianist. He also produced Piano and Chamber pieces, Operas ('Dialogues des Carmelites'), ballets ('Les Biches') as well as some orchestralworks./ Répertoire / Violoncelle et Piano
