Completed in 1914, this suite (whose title translates as Nights of Late Summer) is one of the Swedish masters last and greatest piano works, with a wistful and bittersweet quality that is quite unlike anything else. Originally to include seven sections, Stenhammar cut out two for the final version, which is the one offered here - in a handsome digitally-restored reissue of the edition first published in 1916 by Wilhelm Hansen of Copenhagen. In contrast to many of the on-demand scores now available, this one comes with all the pages and the images have been thoroughly checked to make sure it is readable. The score is beautifully printed on large size (9 x 12) off-white stock with a quality cover, all saddle-stitched in the traditional sheet music binding. As with all PLP scores a percentage of each sale is donated to the amazing online archive of free music scores and recordings, IMSLP - Petrucci Music Library.
