IApart from
some of his Sonatinas,
Opus 36, Clementi's life
and music are hardly
known to the piano
teachers and students of
today. For example, in
addition to the above
mentioned Sonatinas,
Clementi wrote sixty
sonatas for the piano,
many of them unjustly
neglected, although his
friend Beethoven regarded
some of them very highly.
Clementi also wrote
symphonies (some of which
he arranged as piano
sonatas), a substantial
number of waltzes and
other dances for the
piano as well as sonatas
and sonatinas for piano
four-hands.In addition to
composing, Clementi was a
much sought after piano
teacher, and included
among his students John
Field (Father of the
'Nocturne'), and
Meyerbeer.In his later
years, Clementi became a
very successful music
publisher, publishing
among other works the
first English edition of
Beethoven's Violin
Concerto, in the great
composer's own
arrangement for the
piano, as well as some of
his string quartets.
Clementi was also one of
the first English piano
manufacturers to make
pianos with a metal frame
and string them with
wire.The Sonatina in C,
Opus 36, No. 1 was one of
six such works Clementi
wrote in 1797. He must
have been partial to
these little pieces (for
which he also provided
the fingerings), since
they were reissued
(without the fingering)
by the composer shortly
after 1801. About 1820,
he issued ''the sixth
edition, with
considerable improvements
by the author;· with
fingerings added and
several minor changes,
among which were that
many of them were written
an octave higher.IIIt has
often been said,
generally by those
unhampered by the facts,
that composers of the
past (and, dare we add,
the present?), usually
handled their financial
affairs with their public
and publishers with a
poor sense of business
acumen or common sense.
As a result they
frequently found
themselves in financial
straits.Contrary to
popular opinion, this was
the exception rather than
the rule. With the
exception of Mozart and
perhaps a few other
composers, the majority
of composers then, as
now, were quite
successful in their
dealings with the public
and their publishers, as
the following examples
will show.It was not
unusual for 18th- and
19th-century composers to
arrange some of their
more popular compositions
for different
combinations of
instruments in order to
increase their
availability to a larger
music-playing public.
Telemann, in the
introduction to his
seventy-two cantatas for
solo voice and one melody
instrument (flute, oboe
or violin, with the usual
continua) Der Harmonische
Gottesdienst, tor
example, suggests that if
a singer is not available
to perform a cantata the
voice part could be
played by another
instrument. And in the
introduction to his Six
Concertos and Six Suites
for flute, violin and
continua, he named four
different instrumental
combinations that could
perform these pieces, and
actually wrote out the
notes for the different
possibilities. Bach
arranged his violin
concertos for keyboard,
and Beethoven not only
arranged his Piano Sonata
in E Major, Opus 14, No.
1 for string quartet, he
also transposed it to the
key of F. Brahm's
well-known Quintet in F
Minor for piano and
strings was his own
arrangement of his
earlier sonata for two
pianos, also in F
Minor.IIIWe come now to
Clementi. It is well
known that some of his
sixty piano sonatas were
his own arrangements of
some of his lost
symphonies, and that some
of his rondos for piano
four-hands were
originally the last
movements of his solo
sonatas or piano trios.In
order to make the first
movement of his
delightful Sonatina in C,
Opus 36, No. 1 accessible
to young string players,
I have followed the
example established by
the composer himself by
arranging and transposing
one of his piano
compositions from one
medium (the piano) to
another. (string
instruments). In order to
simplify the work for
young string players, in
the process of adapting
it to the new medium it
was necessary to
transpose it from the
original key of C to G,
thereby doing away with
some of the difficulties
they would have
encountered in the
original key. The first
violin and cello parts
are similar to the right-
and left-hand parts of
the original piano
version. The few changes
I have made in these
parts have been for the
convenience of the string
players, but in no way do
they change the nature of
the music.Since the
original implied a
harmonic framework in
many places, I have added
a second violin and viola
part in such a way that
they not only have
interesting music to
play, but also fill in
some of the implied
harmony without in any
way detracting from the
composition's musical
value. Occasionally, it
has been necessary to
raise or lower a few
passages an octave or to
modify others slightly to
make them more accessible
for young players.It is
hoped that the musical
value of the composition
has not been too
compromised, and that
students and teachers
will come to enjoy this
little piece in its new
setting as much as
pianists have in the
original one. This
arrangement may also be
performed by a solo
string quartet. When
performed by a string
orchestra, the double
bass part may be
omitted.- Douglas

Tchaikovsky
spent the summer and
autumn of 1880 at his
sister's country estate
in Kam'ianka, Ukraine,
where he sought peace and
relaxation. But after a
short time the desire to
work took hold of him
again. “I'm
sketching a symphony or
string quintet just now;
I don't know where it's
going yet,†he
wrote to his friend and
patroness Nadezhda von
Meck. In the end it
turned out to be a
Serenade for String
Orchestra, which numbers
among his most beautiful
inspirations and is today
a central work in the
genre. The four movements
captivate with their
diverse moods – be
it the Mozartian first
movement “in the
form of a
sonatinaâ€, the
elegant Waltz, the
melancholy
“Elegia†or
the rousing Finale. For
this new source-critical
edition it was possible
to consult the autograph
in Moscow as well as the
early printed editions
into which Tchaikovsky
sometimes entered a
number of minor
revisions. Clear the
stage for the new
reference edition of this
indispensable work of the
string-orchestra
repertoire!

Sonatina
s form a vital part of
the teaching material for
beginner and intermediate
piano students. Compared
to the great classical
piano sonatas, they are
technically and musically
simpler and typically
shorter. However, they
still convey the basic
elements of Classical
style: the relation of
melody to accompaniment,
articulation,
stylistically authentic
playing, and correct
interpretation. For the
two volumes of Giraffe
Piano, the most favoured
and instructive of the
sonatinas have been
chosen. Volume 1 contains
simpler pieces and Volume
2 is compromised of
moderately difficult
ones. Correct
interpretation of the
pieces is facilitated by
added performance and
fingeringmarks. Learning
is helped along by clear
presentation of the
score, carefully placed
page turns, and by
inspiration from colour
images showing the
keyboard instruments of
the 1720-1820 period for
which the pieces were
written. The most notable
of them is the giraffe
piano, after which the
collection is named.
Im Lehrstoff
für Anfänger und
fortgeschrittene
Klavierschüler auf
Mittelstufenniveau sind
Sonatinen unverzichtbar.
Sie sind technisch und
musikalisch einfacher und
vor allem kürzer als
die großen klassischen
Klaviersonaten, zugleich
kann man an ihnengut die
Grundelemente des
klassischen Stils, das
Verhältnis von Melodie
und Begleitung, eine
klare, stilgetreue
Vortragsweise und die
richtige Formgebung
üben.
In den zwei
Bänden des
Giraffenklaviers
haben wir die
beliebtesten und auch
für den Unterricht am
meisten geeigneten
Sonatinen
zusammengestellt. Im 1.
Band befinden sich
leichte, im 2.
mittelschwere Stücke.
Den richtigen Vortrag der
Stücke unterstützt
der Herausgeber mit HIlfe
von Artikulations- und
Vortragszeichen sowie
Fingersätzen. Über
das klare Notenbild und
die sorgsam gewählten
Stellen zum Umblättern
hinaus machen farbige
Bilder von
zeitgenössischen,
zwischen 1720 und1820
gebauten
Tasteninstrumenten,
für die auch Stücke
des Bandes geschrieben
wurden, ihre Aneignung zu
einem besonderen
Erlebnis. Das
eigentümlichste unter
ihnen war das auf dem
Umschlag abgebildete
Giraffenklavier, das dem
Album auch seinen Namen
gab.
