The music of Gabriel Fauré (1845-1924) is an important link between the innovations of late Romanticism and the experimentation of the early 20th century. A student of Saint-Saëns, he, in turn, taught Ravel and was a mentor to the young modernists of Les Six. These 12 nocturnes and 12 barcarolles, composed over a span of 40 years, document his move from Romanticism to the frontiers of 20th-century music. Reprinted from authoritative French editions.

Grâce à leur caractère naturel leur variété et leur format adapté aux salons musicaux de l?époque les nocturnes de Chopin comptent parmi les ?uvres auxquelles le compositeur doit non seulement sa gloire mais aussi une grande popularité. La demande fut à la hauteur de cette popularité aussi n?est-il pas surprenant que Chopin ait fait publier les deux nocturnes op. 48 composés en 1841 dès la même année à la fois en France en Angleterre et en Allemagne. Les éditeurs actuels se trouvent de ce fait confrontés à la difficulté d?évaluer les variantes figurant dans les différentes premières éditions. La tâche s?avère relativement simple pour l?opus 48 dans la mesure où lemanuscrit longtemps considéré comme perdu et réapparu depuis a pu être utilisé comme source de référence pour l?édition urtext des éditions Henle.
