This volume presents easy pieces for piano by great virtuosos. It unites the two greatest, and perhaps best-known, pianists of the 19th century, Frédéric Chopin and Franz Liszt. The technical requirements of these works are very moderate without muting the stylistic characteristics of these two composers. The ability to play an original composition by Liszt in the first years of lessons can be very motivating for the piano student. Also featured in this collection are works by the virtuoso Ferdinand Hiller, to whom Robert Schumann dedicated his Piano Concerto. As in many of the works by Liszt and Chopin, Hiller's works are frequently reminiscent of folk music. His Irländisches Lied and Fandango, included in the collection, are fine examples of 19th-century 'world music'. / Piano

Par BEETHOVEN LUDWIG VAN. Après que les premières esquisses en eurent été jetées sur le papier dès 1815, il fallut attendre jusqu’en 1824 pour parvenir à la conclusion de la dernière symphonie achevée de Beethoven. Avec son Finale étendu, dans lequel interviennent solistes et chœur avec leur appel à la fraternité, pour former un pont avec la cantate symphonique, elle présente une rupture dont l’effet se fit fortement sentir dans l’histoire de la symphonie tout au long du XIXe siècle. Le thème principal de l’Ode «An die Freude» («À la joie») de Friedrich Schiller est devenu l’une des mélodies les plus populaires de toute la musique classique et constitue aujourd’hui l’Hymne européen. Basée sur le texte musical de l’édition complète des œuvres de Beethoven et accompagnée d’une nouvelle préface, cette toute récente édition fait état du stade actuel de la recherche beethovénienne. Avec cette édition d’étude, ce texte est maintenant accessible à tous à peu de frais et dans un format maniable. / Date parution : 2020-07-04/ Répertoire / Orchestre Symphonique
