Für Klarinette Bassetthorn (2 Klarinetten) und Klavier-?Favourite dish in exchange for favourite music? this perfectly summarizes the genesis of the Konzertstücke. When the clarinettist Heinrich Joseph Baermann and his son Carl who also played the Basset Horn stopped to pay avisit to Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy in 1832 they came to a most curious agreement: they promised their composer friend a generous portion of ?Dampfnudeln? (steamed dumplings) and ?Rahmstrudel? (sweet-cheese strudel)that Mendelssohn was mad about if he were to write a piece for them which they could use on their concert tours. The Konzertstück in f minor that originated in this fashion was followed shortly afterwards by a second one in dminor. Both are extremely effective works which wonderfully bring out the unique sound and performance technique of the two instruments from the Clarinet family.

The Romantic composer Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy (1809-1847) has been highly regarded in Britain from the time of his first visit in 1829.

Thegraceful melodies and use of the full range make it a challenging but highly rewarding piece for any Soprano or Treble. It is presented here with an accompaniment suitable for the Piano.

Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy Trios avec piano Editeur: Ernst Herttrich Doigtés: Klaus Schilde Après une ?uvre de jeunesse et un essai abandonné en 1831/32, Mendelssohn réussit enfin à s?imposer avec son Trio pour piano en ré mineur op. 49, dans ce genre important de musique de chambre, lequel sera suivi six ans plus tard du Trio en ut mineur op. 66. Schumann saisit l´occasion de la publication du premier trio pour appeler le compositeur «le Mozart du 19e siècle», en se référant apparemment aux mélanges d?éléments stylistiques classiques et romantiques. Le texte musical des deux fameux trios a été minutieusement révisé sur la base de l?état actuel de la recherche. Nous proposons en outre la partie de flûte (HN 1297) de la version alternative de l?op. 49 (flûte à la place du violon) arrangée par Mendelssohn lui-même.

A Piano piece in E flat major with the simple title ‘Lied’ (song) was Felix Mendelssohn’s surprise present to his sister Fanny on her birthday on 14 November 1828. Shortly afterwards she referred to the work as ‘Song without Words’ and probably coined the phrase under which her brother’s lyrical Piano pieces numbering nearly 50 are known today.

These and the above mentioned first example of 1828 are united in this essential compilation of works in a genre favoured by the composer.

13 well-known original pieces in progressive order of difficulty with practical comments-At the piano with Mendelssohn everyone naturally thinks first of his wonderful Songs without Words from which we have chosen a varied selection here. But there are other pieces in this volume that are no less fascinating suchas several of his enchanting children’s pieces which belong alongside Robert Schumann’s Kinderszenen. In compositions such as the Prelude in f minor we can also discern the love that Mendelssohn the German Romantic bore for thepolyphony of J. S. Bach.

All of the works (see Contents) have beenmeticulously revised and extensive commentaries reflect the latest in scholarly research. Thus Henle are able to offer a comprehensive Urtext edition of Mendelssohn’s piano works that is unique in this form. It replaces theirprevious volume of selected Piano works (HN 281).

Piano Trio no. 2 in c minor op. 66. After the great success of his first Piano Trio in d minor op. 49, some five years passed before Mendelssohn set to work on a new composition for this formation. But then the c-minor Trio came into being in a relatively short period in March/April 1845 and was published around a year later. Much more sombre in character than the sibling work, this second trio is also considered much more difficult in terms of technique (above all in the piano part). Thus, it has always stood somewhat in the shadow of the earlier trio. However, chamber music aficionados generally regard it as the more mature and challenging work in terms of compositional technique. The trio, taken from the volume Mendelssohn · Piano Trios HN 957, is now available from Henle for the first time also as a practical single edition.
