- Chopin : Trois Nouvelles Études. Nouvelle édition Urtext de Roy Howat au sein de la série « The Complete Chopin ? A New Critical Edition » (rédacteur en chef John Rink)

La série « The Complete Chopin ? A New Critical Edition » des éditions Peters est fermement établie comme l?édition scientifique actuelle la plus importante de la musique de Chopin et est un must pour tout pianiste averti. Les éditeurs de Chopin les plus éminents au monde, sous la direction de l?éditeur en chef John Rink, apportent leurs connaissances collectives inégalées pour donner au projet une autorité unique, en s'appuyant sur les recherches internationales les plus récentes. « The Complete Chopin » priorise les besoins du pianiste pratique et fournit un texte d'exécution magnifiquement présenté de chaque ?uvre, basé sur une source principale unique ainsi que des variantes de premier rang, ainsi que des commentaires critiques approfondis et une préface éclairante en anglais, français et allemand.

Edition Peters est maintenant ravi de présenter la nouvelle édition de Roy Howat des « Trois Nouvelles Études » de Chopin au sein de « The Complete Chopin ». Publiées à l'origine en 1840 dans la « Méthode des Méthodes » qui regroupait plusieurs compositeurs, les « Trois Nouvelles Études » sont les études les moins ouvertement virtuoses de Chopin, mais sans doute les plus sophistiquées de toutes en termes de formation de la sensibilité du pianiste au son, au rythme et à la texture. Debussy a dit un jour qu'il avait « usé ses doigts » en jouant la deuxième d'entre eux.
180 ans après, il semble extraordinaire que de nouveaux détails puissent encore être trouvés dans les pièces, mais l'édition de Howat en publie certains pour la première fois, notamment un certain nombre de variantes mélodiques dans la première Étude, ainsi que des notes dans la deuxième Étude que toutes les éditions précédentes avaient supprimées. Agissant littéralement comme un pivot dans la structure de la seconde Étude, ces notes authentiques ? restaurées ici avec sensibilité ? modifient notre perception de la texture et de l?harmonisation de la musique au moment où la pièce prend son envol sur l?une des cordes de modulation les plus époustouflantes de Chopin. Notre édition confirme également certains doigtés authentiques encore inconnus de la plupart des pianistes, comme le pouce fantaisiste qui « sautille » sur les touches noires à la fin de la troisième Étude.

Conformément à la procédure éditoriale de cette série, la présente édition est basée sur une source principale, à savoir le manuscrit de Chopin soigneusement préparé pour son ami Moscheles. De plus, certains changements que Chopin a introduits après la publication sont présentés ici comme des variantes, permettant aux pianistes de choisir des options de performance en connaissant sciemment leur origine.

Le concept de travail qui sous-tend la série « The Complete Chopin ? A New Critical Edition » :
« The Complete Chopin » est basé sur deux prémisses clés. Premièrement, il ne peut y avoir de version définitive des ?uvres de Chopin : les variantes font partie intégrante de la musique. Deuxièmement, effectuer une fusion de plusieurs sources ? produisant alors une version de la musique qui n'a jamais vraiment existé ? doit être évité. En conséquence, la procédure de travail des éditeurs consiste à identifier une seule source principale pour chaque ?uvre et à préparer une édition de cette source-là (qu?ils considèrent comme « la meilleure », même si elle ne peut être définitive). Dans le même temps, des variantes importantes provenant d'autres sources autorisées sont reproduites soit à côté soit, dans certains cas, dans le texte principal de la musique, dans les notes de bas de page ou dans le commentaire critique, permettant ainsi des comparaisons savantes et facilitant le choix de l'interprétation. / Partitions classique / Piano - instruments à clavier / Piano / EDITION PETERS

Specially produced in association with the Beethoven-Haus Bonn for the 250th Anniversary of Ludwig van Beethoven’s birth this souvenir collection of some of his most famous pieces and movements allows us to rediscover the joy of experiencing the full range of his music in the home and through our fingers just as millions of amateur musicians got to know and love this music in the days before recordings. The volume contains original works for piano such as the ever-popular Für Elise and expert arrangements of orchestral movements such as the first movement of the Fifth Symphony and the Ode to Joy from the Ninth Symphony. Beautifully illustrated and with introductions to all pieces this handsome book comes in a practical landscape format. Edition Peters enjoyed a close working relationship with Beethoven as the original publisher of his First Symphony among other works. The book also tells the fascinating story of the connection between Edition Peters and the most famous portrait of Beethoven by Joseph Karl Stieler.

Par HENSELT ADOLPH. Following his acclaimed first recording of Adolph von Henselt's piano works for Edition Peters Sounds (EPS005), Daniel Grimwood now presents a unique recording of Henselt's complete Études coupled with the complete Préambules. Henselt can truly be considered one of the founding fathers of the Russian School. He counted among his pupils Nicolai Sergeyvich Zverev, the teacher of Rachmaninoff and Scriabin. Rachmaninoff considered Henselt's Études the equal of those by Liszt and Chopin for their great beauty. This double album imaginatively places the two sets of Études Op. 2 and Op. 5 alongside Henselt's improvisatory 'Préambules', one in each key, and also includes the Étude in A minor and the Étude Op. 13 No. 2 'La Gondola' together with the Étude 'Au Jardin' that Balakirev composed to honour Henselt's fiftieth anniversary in St Petersburg.

Par CHOPIN FREDERIC. The Complete Chopin ? A New Critical Edition from Edition Peters is firmly established as the most important ongoing scholarly edition of Chopin?s music and is a must for any discerning pianist. The world?s foremost Chopin editors, under Editor-in-chief John Rink, bring their unrivalled collective knowledge to imbue the project with unique authority, drawing upon the latest international scholarship. The Complete Chopin prioritizes the needs of the practical pianist and provides a beautifully presented performing text of each work based on a single principal source together with important variants, along with thorough critical commentaries and illuminating prefatory essays in English, French and German. Chopin?s etudes occupy a central position in piano literature. Prized by generations of the greatest pianists as the supreme examples in the genre, their reputation rests on their not only challenging specific aspects of a pianist?s technique, but also for being great music, transcending the genre of mere ?study?. In this edition of opus 10 (the earlier of Chopin?s two sets of studies, ending with the famous \'Revolutionary\' etude), pianist and musicologist Roy Howat presents a new edition which addresses many of the misunderstandings created by a very poorly engraved first French edition (containing errors which were then carried over to the German and English editions) ? an edition which nevertheless included many important revisions made at proof stage. Using this first French edition as a primary source, Howat produces an Urtext edition which, while recording noteworthy variants from a variety of sources, is not a ?conflated? version, but a coherent performing edition in its own right, ideal for all who aspire to play these cornerstones of piano repertoire in an informed way. / Date parution : 2022-09-07/ Recueil / Piano
