?Having been considered as a 'fashionable' and 'cliché' composer of his day, Hahn's compositions are possibly not as well-known as they ought to be. First Waltzes for Piano, however, shatter these prejudices held, representing the engaging diversity of the composer's music. Venezuelan-born Reynaldo Hahn (1875-1947) entered the Paris Conservatoire at 10 years old. He received a high standard of musical education from Decombes, Lavignac, Dubois and Massenet before becoming a prolific and versatile composer himself, writing works for all genres. For Hahn, music was a magical art and his compositions often contain expressions of his otherwise hidden emotions and moods. With each of the ten waltzes in First Waltzes containing a variety of different features, Hahn's compilation provides pleasant and evocative pieces for intermediate pianists.andrdquo.

The Richard Wagner Complete Edition presents the composer's entire output for the first time in a reliable form. The conductor Michael Balling, in the early years of the 20th century, attempted to make Wagner's work more accessible for research and performance, but the edition only reached 10 volumes - some with grave shortcomings - and was discontinued after Balling's death in 1925. A further attempt at a complete edition by Otto Strobel was abandoned at the preliminary stages.This third attempt at a complete edition will be the first scholarly, critical edition, based on an evaluation of all the accessible source materials and the latest findings of serious Wagner research. As the edition is also intended for practical performance, the musical text has been kept free of philological insertions; these are listed in the appendices of each volume in the Critical Commentary. Numerous, partly unpublished works - some relatively unknown - and variant versions are published here for the first time. The edition presents authentic texts for Wagner specialists and researchers and critically based performing materials. Contrary to widely held opinions, even the well-known works of Wagner are not necessarily available in reliable editions. The genesis, history and performances directed by Wagner himself are extensively documented so as to present as complete an image as possible of Wagner's compositional intentions.

Chopin's Waltzes aroused controversy. They gained their peak in popularity through being treated by many as masterpieces, and held by others to be dangerous for salons. They are included (next to the nocturnes and the impromptus) in his feminine vein of creativity. Volume XI contains 8 of Chpoins Waltzes. There are variations to be found in the written text. The variations marked ossia were marked in this way by Chopin himself or written in his hand into his students copies; variations without this definition are derived from the context of the text in original versions or from inability to gain a singular interpretation of the text. The original titles of the Waltzes given in the music are given according to autographs. In first editions, where describing words, such as grande, brillante, nouvelle are probably freely added by publishers, in the opinions of the editors of WN.

One of the most beautiful of all Bach's melodies, is this one taken from the alto aria of the 127th Cantata, and was accompanied by string quartet and oboe. As this accompaniment mainly consists of chords held by the strings, this adaptation was fraught with exceptional difficulties and it was only after three months' experiment that the adapter chose this form. Die seele ruht in Jesu handen.
