Newly re-discovered in the run-up to the Schumann year. About three years ago a previously unknown manuscript of an album leaf for Piano by Robert Schumann was found in the Leopold Sophien Library of Überlingen. The little Piano piece entitled 'Ahnung' had been given and dedicated by Klara Schumann to a friend of hers the lithographer and writer Julius Allgeyer. In the Wiener Urtext Edition series this little work is published for the first time in the run-up to the Schumann year - 2010. A print of the rediscovered Schumann autograph is included in the edition. The expressive relatively easy-to-play piece adds to theRomantic Piano repertoire.

arranged for piano by Caroline Potter-Lili Boulanger's Marche Gaie arranged for Piano by Caroline Potter. 'In her all too brief career Lili Boulanger (1893-1918) composed a number of works whose existence is unquestioned for which there is proof they existed but which have now disappeared. One of these missing pieces Marche gaie resurfaced in short score form in 2011 in a private collection in North Carolina; the owners of the manuscript are the grandchildren of the work’s dedicatee Jeanne Leygues. As Marche gaie was registered with SACEM (the collecting Society for music in France) as a work for chamberorchestra in 1916 we can assume it was composed in that year. While the manuscript is in an unknown hand there is musical and circumstantial evidence combined with testimony from the family (whose Leygues ancestors knew the Boulanger family well) that shows beyond reasonable doubt that this is a missing work by Lili Boulanger. Jeanne Leygues daughter of the French politician Georges Leygues briefly Prime Minister in 1920-1 and a great supporter of the arts married an American Paul Rockwell who fought with his brother in the French Foreign Legion in World War I. We can assume that Marche gaie was commissioned for Jeanne’s wedding in December 1916 not least because the piece alludes to Mendelssohn’s famous Wedding March in bars 25-32 a gesture typical of Lili Boulanger who was fond of quotation and allusion. Marche gaie was originally paired with a Marche funèbre a work yet to resurface. It is a pleasure to bring this occasional piece to life. The author is very grateful to Paul Sholarand Vance Brown of Asheville North Carolina for their generous assistance in preparing Marche gaie for publication.' Caroline Potter

Hardcover, Cloth-Bound. Par LISZT FRANZ. This volume contains Liszt's earliest pieces written in a Hungarian style. The complete set of Magyar dallok / Ungarische National-Melodien [Hungarian songs] consisting of 11 items is published here for the first time in a scholarly edition. The composer began to write them resulting from his first return visit to Pest in 1839. The music of these pieces was partly re-used by Liszt at the beginning of the 1850s in his deservedly popular 15 Hungarian Rhapsodies. The Carnival at Pest was inspired by his second tour of Hungary in 1846- it was later re-worked as the 9th Hungarian Rhapsody. The present volume also contains the so far unknown very first version of the 1st Hungarian Rhapsody, and in addition two large fragments from the 1840s plus a number of album leaves. A detailed preface in Hungarian, English, and German, including new research results, numerous manuscript facsimiles, and critical notes, makes this volume of the New Liszt Edition an important publication of immense scholarly value. Along with the cloth-bound Complete Edition, a paperback version for practical use has also been published. This edition's contents are identical to those of the hardcover edition with the exception that the critical notes are not included./ Répertoire / Piano

The early Piano Sonata op. 4 offers interesting insights into the young Chopin's compositional development. In all probability written during his student years at the Warsaw Conservatory and highly prized by Chopin himself thenineteen-year-old composer presented the work to the publisher Tobias Haslinger on a visit to Vienna. But the publisher put off the still unknown composer.It was only when Chopin was at the height of his fame thatHaslinger saw a possibility to do business - but this time it was Chopin who declined. Thus his first sonata was never published during his lifetime. To date an inside tip this work is now available for the first time in Henlequality.

This fascinating collection draws on a virtually unknown set of Brazilian dances for Piano published at the end of the nineteenth century in Rio de Janeiro. These pieces blend the melodic charm and grace of the European polka and other dance forms with the sparkle and syncopation of Afro-Caribbean styles. The result is a repertoire filled with verve and wit that will appeal to players and audiences alike.

It is unknown precisely when and where Mozart wrote this delightful Piano sonata but Vienna or Salzburg around 1783 is likely which is around the time of the production of Idomeneo. Mozart composed the sonata in three-movementstructure. The first andante grazioso is a theme with six variations; the second includes a minuet and trio; the third is the famous rondo alla turca and allegretto which is frequently performed as a separate piece. TheTurkish style was fashionable in Vienna at that time in imitation of Turkish janissary bands. Mozart used it again in his opera Die Entfuhrung aus dem Serail.

The mazurka was Chopin's companion throughout his entire artistic life: He wrote the Mazurka in A minor Op. 68 at the age of seventeen and even his very last composition was dedicated to this Polish dance form. 'Chopin unleashed the unknown poetry which was only suggested in the original themes of the true national mazurkas. Maintaining their rhythm he refined the melody expanded the proportions and introduced a harmonic contrast that was as new as the objects to which he adjusted it…' (F. Liszt). Of the total of 58 mazurkas by Chopin this edition provides a selection of the better known and easier pieces for lessons and music lovers.

Funeral March-Beethoven?s four-movement Sonata in A-flat major Op.26 belongs to his most popular works. It is dedicated to Prince Lichnowsky one of his most generous patrons and the dedicatee of for example the Grande Sonate pathétique Op.13 and Symphony No.2 Op.35.The work?s initial drafts date from 1800 01; it was first published in March 1802.This demanding sonata is highly varied in its form: it begins with a set of variations and contains the famous Marcia funebre sulla morte d?un Eroe as its third movement earning it the nickname ?Sonata with the Funeral March?. The identity of the title?s eroe (hero) remains unknown to the present day. The march was performed atBeethoven?s funeral on 29 March 1827 in an arrangement for orchestra.For this Bärenreiter edition Jonathan Del Mar possibly as one of the first editors of a modern edition consulted the composer?s autograph in the original. This enabled him to decipher details of Beethoven?s handwriting in particular with regard to the exact notation of doubtful slurs. The result is a most reliable and thoroughly-researched musical text. Differing readings and editorial decisions are documented in the Critical Commentary. The edition has been finely engraved and includes practical page turns. Information on central issues of historical performance practice (pedalling ornaments tempo dynamics articulation) is provided in a detailed chapter.Scholarly-critical Urtext edition based on most recent Beethoven researchEvaluation of Beethoven?s autograph in the originalElegant engraving with practical page turnsInformative Introduction (Eng / Ger)Discussion of central performance practice issues (Eng / Ger)Detailed Critical Commentary (Eng)
