Original Version. Par SCHUMANN ROBERT. Schumann’s Cello Concerto Rediscovered In her first Urtext edition for Edition Peters, internationally renowned cellist Josephine Knight reveals Robert Schumann’s original version of his Cello Concerto in A minor Op. 129 – a piece he actually called a ‘Concertstück’ – removing generations of inauthentic editorial interventions. This is the only available modern scholarly edition of the work as Schumann originally conceived it, and restores the text from October 1850, based on the composer’s manuscript held in the Biblioteka Jagiellonska in Kraków. This Full Score matches the separately available edition for Cello and Piano (EP 73488). Matching orchestral material is also available from the publisher. Only modern Urtext edition based on Schumann’s original 1850 manuscript Many new corrections and clarifications, especially to the cello part Scholarly preface detailing history of the work and this edition by editor Josephine Knight, Piatti Professor of Cello at the Royal Academy of Music London Cello Part contains Josephine Knight's fingering and bowing suggestions Critical Commentary Cello and piano edition available separately from Edition Peters: orchestral parts available for rental Recording of the Concertstück featuring Josephine Knight available from Dutton Robert Schumann’s tragic last years have mired many of his greatest works in unnecessary doubt. The story of the suppression of his Violin Concerto by well-meaning friends is relatively well-known. Few, however, know that the version of the Cello Concerto that is routinely heard today is so far from Schumann’s original conception of the work – not only in details of phrasing and articulation, but also featuring a different ending with a bold final flourish from the cello. Composed in a burst of inspiration in two weeks in October 1850 shortly after he and Clara had moved to Düsseldorf, Schumann (who in 1850 was still in good health) never heard the piece performed. In an effort to promote a performance of the work, he gave the score to the cellist Robert Emil Bockmühl. Bockmühl made revisions that Schumann resisted, and the hoped-for performance never happened. Schumann’s health failed and he died aged just 46 in 1856. The Concerto, in an already substantially revised form, was premiered in 1860 but it was not given significant recognition until it was championed by Pablo Casals in the 20th century by which time (and since) the text for the work had accreted additions and alterations from generations of soloists. Now Josephine Knight, Piatti Professor of Cello at the Royal Academy of Music, London has returned to the original 1850 manuscript of the work, which is in the Biblioteka Jagiellonska in Kraków, to reveal Schumann’s original thoughts for the first time in a modern Urtext edition. The edition reflects Schumann’s original conception of the work as a Concertstück and restores Schumann’s musical text, free of posthumous interventions. ‘My ultimate wish,’ says the editor, ‘is to give performers both access to, and confidence that they are playing from, an edition which is a true representation of the piece in its original form, no matter how much more difficult this might be. I found that incorporating the changes enabled the piece to take on a completely different character – one that is lighter and happier, even “cheerful”, as Schumann himself described the work.'/ Répertoire / Violoncelle et Orchestre

C major. Par HAYDN FRANZ JOSEF. Concert for violoncello and orchestra. Urtext from: Joseph Haydn Werke, G. Henle Verlag München / Classique / Répertoire / Violoncelle et Orchestre

Après Altius (1999) pour violoncelle et 16 instruments et Huit à l'infini (2001) pour octuor de violoncelles et orchestre, Horizons réflexes est ma troisième oeuvre de nature concertante écrite pour le violoncelle.Au début de la composition de cette pièce, dédiée à Gary Hoffman et commandée par le festival Automne en Normandie, j'avais à l'esprit l'idée quasi picturale d'un paysage étrange, constitué de lignes se développant horizontalement et de verticalités presque régulières qui se rencontrent, se trouvent, se dérobent ou se métamorphosent.Non seulement le vers du poète Alexis Pelletier 'Un matin, je fus saisi par l'évidence des horizons réflexes' m'a donné l'idée du titre de la pièce, mais il m'a également permis de conceptualiser la plastique sonore que je souhaitais développer au long des six sections enchaînées que compte cette composition.Dans la plupart de mes oeuvres concertantes - et c'est de nouveau le cas dans Horizons reflexes, le soliste devient la 'voix supérieure' d'une matière sonore en mouvement prolongée par un orchestre 'résonateur' qui sait aussi se montrer éloquent.

Cinq concertos violoncelles du Pleyel ont conduit à tort une existence ombre, comparée à des concertos de contemporains tels que Joseph Haydn. Avec ses contributions indépendantes dans le genre, qui appartient à ses oeuvres intellectuellement plus stimulant, Pleyel a encore une fois impressionne par son imagination et son élégance musical. / Violoncelle Et Orchestre

Farewell to philosophy. Par BRYARS GAVIN. I have a great fondness for the lower string instruments: I am a bass player, my mother is a cellist, as are both my daughters; my own ensemble includes two violas, a cello and a bass, and for the instrumentation of my opera Medea I omit the entire violin section from the orchestra. As I have written a number of works for solo instrument or voice with orchestra I welcomed the opportunity to write a concerto for cello and orchestra and especially one which focuses particularly on the instrument’s lyrical qualities. Although the piece is in one continuous movement, and the soloist is playing almost without a break, it nevertheless falls into distinct sections which are recognisable by a shift of tempo as well as by a change in the music’s character. One of the early ideas Julian Lloyd Webber and I discussed was that it might form a companion piece to one of the Haydn concertos. Given my friendship with some members of the English Chamber Orchestra and my awareness of their repertoire, this suggested a number of particular musical references. The subtitle to the work, for example, combines the subtitles of two idiosyncratic Haydn symphonies and I allude to them in different ways but chiefly through orchestration: for The Philosopher by including a section in the concerto where the orchestration resembles that of the symphony’s first movement (pairs of English and French horns, muted violins and unmuted lower strings); for The Farewell, by the progressive reduction in the orchestration towards the end. Indeed, apart from the orchestral tutti in the last few bars, the last pages of the score are virtually for string quartet. The subtitle also refers to my own background as a philosophy graduate... The piece was commissioned by Philips Classics for Julian Lloyd Webber and is dedicated to him. The first performance was given by Julian Lloyd Webber and the English Chamber Orchestra conducted by James Judd, 21 November 1995, Barbican Hall, London.

Par SCULTHORPE PETER. Written in 1998, Peter Sculthorpe's calm work draws its inspiration from his own environmental concerns for Northern Australia's so-called 'Top End'. There, along the coastline, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island cultures mingle with those of Melanesia and Indonesia. Cello Dreaming reflects this plurality. / Niveau : Assez Facile / Répertoire / Conducteur

This study score is based on the score and complete performance material of Dvorák's famous B minor Cello Concerto (BA 9045) edited by Jonathan Del Mar and published in 2011. In addition the study score contains a Foreword by Dvorák scholar Jan Smaczny.Like every other major 19th-century cello concerto, Dvorák's concerto resulted from a collaboration between the composer and a virtuoso musician. Several passages in Dvorák's autograph were written by the cellist Hanus Wihan but Bärenreiter's edition now reveals that some details in the orchestral parts are also in his writing, showing just how closely the two musicians were working together.The editor Jonathan Del Mar has conscientiously examined every available source, including two that have hitherto been either ignored or crucially undervalued. His research has led to a benchmark edition that reconstructs, for the first time since its initial publication in 1896, Dvorák's definitive version of the solo part. It differs from previous editions in practically every measure and hundreds of corrections have also been made to the orchestral parts. - Includes Dvorák's final and definitive version of the solo cello part - Incorporates new discoveries regarding the collaboration between Dvorák and Wihan - With Feuermann's and Casals's alternative versions of a passage in the first movement - Detailed Foreword (Eng/Cz/Ger) / Violoncelle Et Orchestre
