Carl Maria von Weber's fame rests mainly on ?Der Freischütz'. The unprecedented success of this opera overshadowed all his other works and contributed to their increasing fall into oblivion. Certain works such as ?Preciosa', ?Oberon', and ?Euryanthe', the overtures, solo concertos and piano sonatas, the lieder and chamber works enjoyed great popularity and were widely known in Germany and abroad as late as the second half of the 19th century. However, any chance of a revival of Weber's influential and substantial oeuvre was wasted in the 1920s, when a complete edition - begun by Hans Joachim Moser and with potential contributors including Wilhelm Kempff, Hans Pfitzner, Max von Schillings, Fritz Stein and Richard Strauss - failed after the third volume.Ever since there have been numerous attempts to restart a complete edition of Weber's works, but as this kind of project would have required the co-operation of scholars from both sides of the inter-German border, the political situation after 1945 was not conducive to any such enterprise. Careful negotiations led to the first tangible steps in the 1980s. The intention, right from the beginning, was to place Weber's work in context, and not to separate his musical output from his influential work as a writer, critic and organiser in the musical field, but to publish his compositions together with his letters, diaries and other literary output as the best way to document the cross-fertilisation between his musical, literary and practical activities.Since the German re-unification both working-parties concerned - at the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin, and at the Musikwissenschaftliches Seminar, Detmold/Paderborn - have co-operated on the complete edition of the musical works (c. 45 volumes in 10 series: sacred music - cantatas, odes and other occasional works - stage works - lieder and vocal works - orchestral works - chamber music - music for piano - piano reductions - miscellanea, arrangements and orchestrations - works of doubtful attribution). The diaries (6-8 vols.) are edited in Berlin and the letters (8-10 vols.) and other writings (2 vols.) in Detmold. This complete edition aims to be a reliable basis of scholarly debate as well as for the authentic performance practice of Carl Maria von Weber's music. Conforming to the standards of recent historico-critical editions, the textual material will be based on all available authentic sources, accompanied by a detailed documentation of the genesis and a list of variants for each work. The musicological importance of the works will be evaluated by placing them in their historical context, the presentation of their genesis, history and Critical Commentaries. The letters, writings and diaries will be treated as inter-related and relevant to each other in the commentaries, therefore readers should benefit from a wealth of concise information and cross-references. / Piano Et Orchestre

Concerto pour piano #3 de Beethoven est le seul concerto où il n'existe pas de manuscrit authentique pour la partie solo. L'autographe de la partition est en vertu de laquelle l'articulation, la dynamique et indications de pédale sont pour la plupart absents. Cependant, Beethoven a supervisé la première édition imprimée de la partie solo (1804) avec beaucoup de diligence. Corrections des plaques témoignent du soin avec lequel Beethoven placé insultes et indications de pédale afin d'être cohérente et sans ambiguïté.

Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Bach's mastery of rhythm and harmony, inventiveness, and genius for composition produced some of the richest and most beautiful music of all time. Those qualities are strikingly evident in his early concerti, which are among the most recorded and performed works in the Baroque repertoire. This volume reprints, complete and unabridged, seven complete concerti for solo keyboard and orchestra from the renowned Bach-Gesellschaft edition, still considered the primary source for Bach's music./ Répertoire / Piano et Orchestre

Homage to Anish Kapoor and his sculpture 'Marsyas'. Par PART ARVO. Arvo Pärt about Lamentate: 'Lamentate is music for piano solo and orchestra. With respect to its form, however, the composition cannot really be described as a typical piano concerto. I chose the piano to be the solo instrument because it fixes our attention on something that is 'one'. This 'one' could be a person, or perhaps a first-person narrative. Just as the sculpture leaves the viewer with a light and floating impression in spite of its overwhelming size, the piano, as a large instrument, allowed me to create a sphere of intimacy and warmth that no longer seems anonymous or abstract. Overall, it could be said that my work is marked by two diametrically opposed moods. By way of slight exaggeration, I would characterize these two poles as being 'brutal-overwhelming' and 'intimate-fragile'. The two characters are not simply placed opposite one another, much rather being left to develop themselves in a conflict that runs throughout the entire work.'/ Répertoire / Piano et Orchestre

Par MANTOVANI BRUNO. Cette pièce emprunte sa matière soliste à une oeuvre pour piano, Le Livre de Jeb, véritable portrait musical de son dédicataire Jean-Efflam Bavouzet. Ce pianiste protéiforme, aussi sensible à la musique de Claude Debussy qu'au jazz, est un artiste unique, par l'ampleur de son répertoire et par la générosité de ses interprétations. C'est justement la diversité des goûts de ce musicien qui est à l'origine de mon inspiration : ma pièce renvoie autant à une contemplation caractéristique d'un certain 'esprit français' (notamment en son début) qu'à des rythmiques plus américanisantes. L'orchestre fonctionne ici comme le prolongement des résonances naturelles du piano. Il interprète les silences de la pièce originelle, vient ajouter des commentaires, afin de complexifier une matière première qui vise à l'évidence. La forme est extrêmement libre, mais le retour de certaines idées vient structurer un parcours dense, où la logique traditionnelle du concerto (alternance entre soliste et orchestre) est remplacée par un jeu permanent de doublures. Commande de l'Orchestre National de Lille, cette Fantaisie composée en 2009 est dédiée à Julia, Laura, Andrea, et Jean-Efflam Bavouzet.
