Par JANACEK LEOS. The composition “ 1. X. 1905 , ” generally referred to as a “sonata, ” stems from the autumn of 1905, the peak of the riots between the Czech- and German-speaking populations in Janá ek ’s hometown Brno. Reacting to the violent death of a Czech worker, Janá ek wrote a three-part composition for Piano originally bearing the title “From the Street, on October 1, 1905. ” Dissatisfied with the work, however, Janá ek is said to have first burned the third movement in his fireplace and then thrown the remaining two movements into the Vltava, even before its premiere. A copy of these first two movements on which thepublication of the first edition was later based is also missing today. For this reason, the Urtext edition of G. Henle Publishers and Universal Edition is based solely on the first edition from 1924, which Janá ek expert Ji í Zahrádka has carefully evaluated and annotated for this volume. / Zahrádka, Jirí / Répertoire / Piano

Par BEETHOVEN LUDWIG VAN. The two Rondos op. 51 were written independently of one another and only later consolidated into a single opus by Beethoven’s publisher. The first of these works from 1797 quickly became popular on account of how it combines simple, catchy melody with surprising modulations and expressive, dramatic eruptions within a compact form. With its moderate degree of difficulty, the piece is ideal preparation before embarking on Beethoven’s piano sonatas. Based on her preliminary research for the critical Complete Edition, Beethoven specialist Joanna Cobb Biermann has carefully revised the musical text of the Henle Urtext edition and updated the preface to reflect the latest scholarship./ Répertoire / Piano

Keyboard Corner is a two-year program for six- and seven-year-old beginners. The format is similar to Music Street, however the maturity of the children is taken into consideration when introducing new musical concepts, and a little more emphasis is put on actual performance and repertoire. Students still benefit from ensemble playing, ear training, and some singing. As in Music Street, students learn to read both two-staff music as well as recognize chord symbols. Because of their developing physical abilities, Keyboard Corner students can begin performing more interesting accompaniments with their songs and produce more creative arrangements. Having musical fun is still the goal of every lesson. / Piano
