Debussy?s Première Rhapsodie is one of two concertante works completed, premiered and published during his lifetime. He was commissioned to write it in 1909 for the final examination at the Paris Conservatoire in 1910. Debussy orchestrated it in the summer of 1911. While transferring the clarinet part from the already published version for clarinet and piano, he made a few subtle changes, particularly in m. 201, which has been a bone of contention among clarinettists for over a century. The present scholarly-critical publication is the first Urtext edition of the orchestral version. It draws on every known source and takes into account a previously ignored source that sheds new light on the piece. ? First Urtext edition of the orchestral version ?

This clarinet concerto was premiered in 1997 as part of the celebrations of the Year of Ninian one of the founding fathers of Christianity in Scotland. St Ninian the first bishop of Whithorn was believed to have arrived in Galloway in the south-west of the country in 397 nearly two centuries before St Columba landed on Iona. The three movements are based on three of the so-called Miracles of Ninian strange and evocative tales about the saint and his followers documented in a Latin poem written a few centuries after his death. As well as being a concerto the work is therefore also a collection of tone-paintings which give an impression of these ancient tales.

In late 1791 Mozart wrote his famous work the Concerto for ?Bassettklarinette? and Orchestra K.622 known today as his Clarinet Concerto. The challenging virtuoso piece was written for Anton Stadler and the music follows the three-part structure of Allegro Adagio and a Rondo finale.This work was first published in 1801 and by no less than three publishers. It is one of the most important works in the Clarinet repertoire and remains a popular work to the present date.Urtext of the New Mozart EditionFull score & performance material (BA4773) Clarinet in A & Piano reduction (BA4773-90) and study score format 22.5 x 16.5cm(TP254) available for saleClarinet in B-flat & Piano reduction (BA4773-38)Reconstructed version for Basset Clarinet and Orchestra full score (BA4773-01)

Par SPOHR LOUIS. Louis Spohr?s technically, extremely demanding concertos have long been part of clarinetists? standard repertoire. Like the first clarinet concerto, this second concerto was composed for the clarinetist Johann Hermstedt, probably in the spring of 1810. Critics praised the concerto at its premiere, stating that it was ?undeniably one of the most accomplished works of art of its kind.? Emphasized was also the ?great and brilliant treatment of the solo instrument, combined with a very original orchestra accompaniment, where every part, even the timpani, is obbligato.? The concerto was even then a great success with the audience. For publication, Spohr supplemented the solo part with various ossia passages as simplifying alternatives. These can of course be found in the score as well as in the piano reduction presented in Ullrich Scheideler?s new critical Urtext edition in collaboration with G. Henle Verlag, now for the first time in a reliable edition. / Date parution : 2022-10-12/ Répertoire / Orchestre et Clarinette
