Trio-The musical term 'Dumka' originates from the Ukrainian language and means 'an epic ballad ? generally thoughtful or melancholic in character'.Dvorák?s magnum opus in the Piano trio genre takes its name from its ?Dumka? movements which he composed whilst in Prague in 1890-91. After long hesitation he finally prepared a Piano reduction while he was in the United States in the summer of 1893. The previous year Dvorák had played the work on a forty-concert farewell tour of Bohemia with Ferdinand Lachner and Hans Wihan.The editor of this Barenreiter edition Christoph Flamm took the Simrock print as his starting point. However he alsocarefully distinguished between the various reissues and consulted Dvorák?s sketches as well as his Piano reduction. A Critical Commentary provides detailed information on the work?s sources tempo markings and formal divisions of the movements.Urtext edition reflecting the latest musicological researchDetailed preface (Ger/Cz/Eng) and Critical Commentary (Eng) by the editorContains previously unknown music (draft version of Dumka no. 3)Replaces earlier edition H1551

This Rondo was written around the same time as the Piano Concertos in A major (K. 488) and c minor (K. 491). In the course of the work a theme from the third movement of the Piano Quartet in g minor (K. 478)is taken up and further developed. In spite of its considerable length and its musical depth the work was apparently not published during the composer?s lifetime. The dedication ?Pour Mad:selle Charlotte de W?? (the rest isindecipherable) is an enigma. No matter which lady Mozart had in mind this rondo is today one of his best loved and most played Piano works. Our single edition follows the musical text in the revised volume of his Pianoworks (HN 22) published in Mozart Year 2006.

Dvorák avait déjà écrit de la musique de soliste pour Hanus Wihan futur dédicataire de son concerto pour violoncelle avant de projeter avec lui et le violoniste Ferdinand Lachner une tournée en trio prévue pour 1892. Dans cette perspective ayant besoin de nouvelles ?uvres pour violoncelle et piano il remania «Le Calme de la forêt» dans une version pour violoncelle et piano pendant la période de Noël 1891. Composée initialement pour piano à quatre mains cette pièce chantante du cycle «De la forêt de Bohème» devint une pièce de concert très populaire grâce aux sonorités du violoncelle. Par la suite Dvorák réalisa un nouvel arrangement du «Calme de la forêt» le muant enune pièce de concert brillante pour violoncelle et orchestre. Pour l?édition urtext pour violoncelle et piano présentée ici l?éditeur et spécialiste de Dvorák Milan Pospí?il s?est appuyé principalement sur la première édition de 1894.

g-moll Op. 33 B. 63-Composed in 1876 Dvorák’s only piano concerto has been overshadowed by his other two concertos for violin and violoncello respectively. Performers and editors have often attempted to upgrade this pianistically unassuming work by adding stylisations of their own. Our Urtext edition revaluates the sources frees the work from subsequent interventions and presents it to full advantage in its authentic form. The principal source of our new edition is the first complete print issued by the publisher Hainauer in 1883 which has been meticulously collated with the autograph. The anonymous original piano reduction is so full of mistakes that editor Robbert vanSteijn decided instead to present the version by Karel Šolc. - New Urtext edition of Dvorák’s only piano concerto - Foreword by Dvorák scholar David R.

Long before his famous Mikrokosmos Bart?k composed a comprehensive collection of little piano pieces entitled For Children. Written in 1908 1911 its two volumes are based on Hungarian and Slovakian folk tunes respectively. Bothare organised in ascending difficulty from simple two-part pieces to Impressionistic miniatures and they offer everything that children???s hands can manage. Bart?k revised this collection in the 1940s. He did not just makemusical improvements but also gave every movement a title. This revised version forms the main text of our Urtext edition while an appendix offers movements from the early version that diverge significantly from the revisedones. As always in Henle???s Bart?k editions there are indications regarding performance practice and insights into how the composer himself played these pieces.

Early piano quintet for Piano 2 Violins Viola VioloncelloIn 1887 Anton n Dvorák revised several of the works he had composed in the 1860s and 1870s most of which he then published for the first time.In this context he asked the music critic Ludev t Procházka to return a manuscript copy of the Piano Quintet in A major Op.5 (B 28) composed 15 years earlier. But after thoroughly revising the work he declined to publish it; instead he wrote a new piano quintet in the same key the famous Op.81. And so the manuscript copy he requested from Procházka remains the sole source for this early piece of chamber music.Dvorák?s first Piano Quintet in A majorwas never published during his lifetime. This edition presents the musical text from the ?Complete Edition of the Works of Anton n Dvorák? Volume IV/11.Now with a new detailed Foreword (Eng/Cz/Ger) by David R. Beveridge

In Bartók's career the period between 1910 and 1914 was devoted to intensive folk song collecting work. In those years his attention was focussed principally on Romanian folk music (in 1913 he published for example the Bihar collection and most of the Máramaros collection: in March 1913 in just two weeks he recorded 209 songs). The inspiration gained from his collecting journeys in Romania first appeared in the vocal folk song arrangements he composed in 1915 and in the smaller-scale moderately difficult piano series based on Romanian folk music material the Romanian Folk Dances Kolindák and the Sonatina. In the three movements of the Sonatina ('Pipers' 'Bears' Dance' and'Finale') Bartók used altogether five original Romanian melodies. In 1931 he made an orchestral arrangement of this exceptionally popular work and entitled it Transylvanian Dances. (Hungaroton HCD 31604)

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 onlywith 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 thediary 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 inpreparation 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 threepractical double volumes that offer both beginners and advanced pianists a perfect introduction to this work.

For Children Vol. 2. Bartók composed his first pedagogical collection For Children between 1908 and 1911. The first edition was issued between 1909 and 1911 in four volumes, comprising two of Hungarian and two of Slovak folk song arrangements. After moving to America, Bartók considered it important to produce new editions of his earlier works. Thus in autumn 1943, together with his new publisher Boosey

talian composer, Domenico Scarlatti (1685-1757) is well-known for his Keyboard compositions. His 555 Keyboard Sonatas remain ever popular to this day, and it is for this reason that this second volume is indispensable toperformers of the genre. Originally composed for the Harpsichord, Organ or early Pianoforte, the Sonatas display the riveting use of discords and unconventional modulations to remote keys. It is also thought that much ofScarlatti\'s Keyboard music contains influences of Iberian music, considering that he spent much of his working life in the service of the Spanish and Portuguese royal families. The second volume, comprising Sonatas 53-103,includes the popular and recognised Sonatas in F minor (K. 69) and B minor (K. 87). Bearing in mind that Domenico Scarlatti was a highly competent and popular Keyboard player in his day, so much so that he was employed in theservice of two royal families, his Sonatas are composed with much experience, understanding and expertise, creating an essential addition to the repertoire of all Keyboard players of the Baroque genre. / Partitions classique / Piano - instruments à clavier / Clavecin / HEUGEL
