Johannes Brahms' Violin Concerto written for his friend Joseph Joachim has remained a standard in the concert literature since its first performance. No scholarly critical edition of this work has ever been published and therefore the many sometimes conflicting sources have never been evaluated for a critical performing edition. Not only Brahms' autograph score solo part and autograph Piano reduction but also his personal copies of the first edition score as well as the first edition orchestral parts have all been consulted. Clive Brown’s edition offers insights into the genesis of the composition and the working relationshipbetween Brahms and Joachim. The critical commentary comments on all discrepancies in the sources. The critical edition of Brahms' own Piano reduction is at the same time a performing edition and includes an informative introduction as well as comments on performance practice. In addition the Piano reduction includes a separate brochure with not only the well known Joachim cadenza but also those by J. Halir H. Heermann L. Auer and F. Busoni. An informative preface (Ger/Eng) with references to performance practice and a critical commentary are included in the edition First scholarly critical edition of this standard work Critical commentary (Eng) Insightful comments on performance practice An Urtext Violin part and an additional Violin part marked with fingering and bowing suggestions by Joseph Joachim Valuable cadenza brochure with cadenzas by Joachim Halir Heermann Auer and Busoni Full score critical commentary & parts (BA9049) and Violin & Piano reduction (BA9049-90) and study score (TP949) available for sale

Brahms' only Violin concerto was given a very warm reception by his contemporaries and has been an important piece in the Violin repertoire ever since. It bears witness to Brahms' fruitful collaboration with Joseph Joachim whocontributed a cadenza. The composer's original and extremely demanding piano reduction has been carefully simplified for our edition by Johannes Umbreit. This Urtext edition follows the musical text of the new Brahms CompleteEdition. The appendix also contains an alternative version of Joachim's cadenza that to date has not been published in a practical edition. Alongside Joachim's original fingerings and bowings there are also fingering suggestionsby Frank Peter Zimmermann.

Concert rhapsody for violin and piano-In 1922 Maurice Ravel heard the young Hungarian violin virtuoso and niece of Joseph Joachim Jelly D?Aranyi in concert in London. Following the performance Ravel spent the remainder of the evening requesting D?Aranyi to play numerous gypsy tunes on her violin probing her on the technical limits of the instrument. The result of this encounter is Ravel?s virtuoso classic ?Tzigane?. Written originally for violin and piano or luthéal (a mechanism invented in 1919 that attaches to a piano producing a sound similar to the rich overtones of the Cimbalon) the premiere took place in London in April 1924. The composer had finished the work only days beforehand. Ravel laterorchestrated ?Tzigane? and both versions remain a ?must? for music-lovers and aspiring violinists today. Jelly D?Aranyi performed both versions regularly throughout her long career. This Urtext edition presents the first scholarly-critical edition of Ravel?s masterpiece. It is published both in the orchestral version complete with full score and performance material as well as in the composer?s earlier version for violin and piano. All known sources including letters have been drawn on for the new edition; one of the available sources consulted for the first time was a copy of ?Tzigane? from the estate of Jelly D?Aranyi which is today part of a private collection. The version for piano and violin contains besides the Urtext part a second violin part as a facsimile with performance instructions by Jelly D?Aranyi. D?Aranyi?s alterations and fingering reflect how Ravel must have heard the work in rehearsals and performance and as such are a document of early 20th century performance practice. The cooperation between Ravel and D?Aranyi is comparable to that of Brahms and Joachim working on the Brahms violin concerto.First scholarly-critical Urtext edition of the work Presented are both versions: for violin and orchestra and for violin and pianoIncludes Jelly D?Aranyi?s fingering

Dvorák, Antonín Concerto for Violin and Orchestra A minor op. 53 Edition no. BA 10422-90 ISMN 9790260107687 Editor Cividini, Iacopo Dvorák?s Violin Concerto was composed between 1879 and 1882, with the active assistance of Joseph Joachim, and was issued by the publisher Fritz Simrock, Berlin in 1883. Its premiere took place in October of that same year with Franti?ek Ondrícek as soloist. This new Urtext edition is based on the first edition (score, solo violin part, piano reduction and orchestral parts). It also takes Dvorák?s autograph which served as a master copy for the engraving into consideration. A fresh assessment of Dvorák?s manuscript made it possible to reconstruct several variants ignored in the first and subsequent editions and to clarify ambiguities in the notation and articulation. An important component of our Urtext edition is the original piano reduction, which probably stems from Dvorák himself, and in which Joseph Joachim?s fingering is published. ? First Urtext edition of the original piano reduction ? Variants in the solo part rendered as ossia passages ? Foreword on the work?s genesis (Ger/Cz/Eng) and detailed Critical Commentary (Eng) by the editor

Following the composition of Harold En Italie for Viola and orchestra in 1834, Berlioz began work on the opera Benvenuto Cellini , which subsequently failed on its first performances at the Paris Opera in 1838. Berlioz withdrew the opera for substantial revision, and from some of the discharged material he later fashioned this Reverie Et Caprice (in versions both for Violin and orchestra and Violin and Piano). Dedicated to Berlioz's violinist friend Alexandre-Joseph Artot, the piece was quickly taken up by several celebrated violinists of the time, including David, Joachim and Wieniawski, and was played all over Europe. This new edition for Violin and Piano, by the musicologist and performer Neil Heyde, is based on the first edition of the score.

Brahms composed his ?Violin Sonata In D Minor? during the summer of 1886. The work quickly became part of the standard repertoire and has remained so until today. It is presented here in a fine Bärenreiter Urtext edition and comes with an unmarked Urtext part as well as a second part marked with fingering and bowing by Clive Brown which are based on the practices of Brahms? contemporaries.An important part of this edition is the extensive preface. Firstly it informs about the works? origins its compositional process pre-publication performances its publication history as well as early reception. Truly remarkable is theunique Performance Practice Commentary. Here the editors take the premise that already a few decades after Brahms? death a widening gulf developed between the composer?s expectations and the performance practices of the early 20th century. In a very concrete and practical way the editors summarize some of the key issues in understanding Brahms? notation with regard to rhythm and timing dynamics and accentuation dots and strokes slurring and non legato Piano pedalling and overholding Piano arpeggiation and dislocation string instrument fingering string instrument harmonics and vibrato. In this way the edition offers an exciting and often surprising insight in Romantic musical interpretation.A pioneering Urtext edition.With an unmarked Urtext part.With a second part including fingering and bowing based on the practices of Joseph Joachim and other contemporaries of Brahms.With an extensive Performance Practice Commentary.For further information on Romantic performance practice we recommend: ?Performance Practices in Johannes Brahms?

It made its creator world-famous and added a towering masterpiece to the standard repertoire: Max Bruch’s First Violin Concerto In G Minor. Now it’s appearing at last in an urtext edition from Henle.Bruch himself was not always overjoyed at his work’s popularity: 'I can’t listen to this concerto anymore ' he once complained to his publisher Simrock 'do you suppose I’ve only written one concerto?' By now theBruch Concerto has found a permanent place in the world’s concert halls. Henle’s edition provides not only a razor-sharp urtext for the solo part but a preface that alone is worth the price of the volume: who could haveguessed that the concerto went through a convoluted genesis with multi-layered revisions and that some of the changes go back to the famous violinist Joseph Joachim?

Mendelssohn Bartholdy, Felix Konzert für Violine und Orchester e-Moll op. 64 Zweite Fassung 1845 Edition no.BA 9099-90 ISMN 9790006564347 Editor Todd, R. Larry / Brown, Clive Mendelssohn?s Violin Concerto op. 64, is a key work of the 19th century, adhering to the classical style of Beethoven while pointing the way to the romantic ethos of Brahms. It has long been known that Mendelssohn performed the work with three soloists in succession: Ferdinand David, who worked closely with the composer during its composition and played it at the première; the ?child prodigy? Joseph Joachim; and Hubert Léonard, a young Belgian virtuoso about whom little is known. As proof sheets for the Violin Concerto in E minor were long considered lost, it could be described as somewhat of a sensation when proofs for the solo violin part resurfaced together with a letter from Mendelssohn to Léonard. The letter informs us that the composer invited Léonard to his home in Frankfurt in order to make his acquaintance. It was already known that Mendelssohn had given proof sheets to David; now we know that he also gave some to Léonard. The recently discovered proofs reveal how Léonard played the concerto with Mendelssohn on that memorable evening in February 1845. Besides containing bowing marks and fingering, they also show how Léonard executed shifts of position and where he employed open strings. Furthermore modifications made to dynamic markings and additional legato bowing are shown. It is safe to assume that all of this was done with Mendelssohn?s approval. That the young violinist made a positive impression on the composer is confirmed in the latter?s correspondence following their joint performance. Mendelssohn is full of praise for Léonard?s playing and offers to lend his support in finding employment in Germany. This revised edition of the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto (only the orchestral parts remain unchanged) includes a separate booklet on performance practice. The editor, Clive Brown, is an acknowledged expert on Romantic performance practice. - New source situation owing to recently rediscovered proofs - Revised Urtext edition - With a separate booklet on performance practice (Eng/Ger)
