Par SCHOENBERG ARNOLD. ?Friede auf Erden? op. 13 is regarded as Arnold Schoenberg?s last tonal composition and is one of the few choral works of the Second Viennese School. On the same day that he completed his op. 13, Schoenberg made the first sketches for his 2nd String Quartet, a key work in atonal music. Although Schoenberg later orchestrated ?Friede auf Erden?, he intended the piece to be performed unaccompanied.To help rehearsing the work, this choral score contains the piano transcription made by Anton Webern for use in rehearsals for the planned first performance. The text for op. 13 is a secular Christmas poem by Conrad Ferdinand Meyer. At the time of its composition (1907), Schoenberg thought the vision of a ?reine Harmonie unter Menschen? (pure harmony amongst people) described in the poem was conceivable, but he later distanced himself from this idea. What remained is a composition of great artistic power and depth ? a real showpiece for ambitious choirs! / Date parution : 2022-07-20/ Répertoire / SSAATTBB A Cappella

Arnold Schönberg: String Quartet No. 2 - F# minor for soprano and string quartet op. 10 PH229 Arnold Schoenberg's String Quartet No. 2 op. 10 with soprano (1907 /1908) is among the founding documents of New Music. Instrument: for soprano and string quartet Edition type: pocket score Composer: Schönberg Arnold 'This quartet adds a new element to Schoenberg's creative oeuvre: brevity. It was already indicated by the succinctness of the Chamber Symphony and is clearly expressed in the structure of the F sharp minor Quartet with four shorter movements. There is only a small step from the harmonic language of this work to a complete renunciation of tonality. The last movement - although, in the main, belonging to F sharp mayor - no longer carries a key signature. Chromatic alteration turns the fourth chords into harmonies never heard before, free from any tonal context.' (Anton Webern)

Alban Berg's String Quartet can be considered to be one of the founding works of the Second Viennese School. Already composed in 1910 and first published in 1920, it was the last composition the 25-year-old wrote under the tutelage of Arnold Schoenberg, who admired 'the fullness and unconstraint of his musical language, the strength and sureness of its presentation, its careful working and significant originality?. Even today the extremely complex work places the highest technical demands on the interpreters - for this reason our edition contains parts that are especially good to play from, in which each musician can also follow what is going on in the other parts. / 2 Violons, Alto Et Violoncelle

Arnold Schönberg
Six petites pièces pour piano op. 19
Norbert Müllemann (Editeur)
Emanuel Ax (Doigtés)
À la question de savoir comment, sans contexte tonal, il était possible de structurer des flux musicaux, Schönberg et ses disciples répondirent par un resserrement extrême de la forme. Les Sechs kleine Klavierstücke opus 19 écrites par Schönberg en 1911 sont devenues légendaires de par leur concentration sur l?essentiel. Mais ces gestes fugaces dissimulent de véritables abîmes, comme en témoigne la dernière pièce, qui aurait été inspirée par les funérailles de Gustav Mahler le 21 mai 1911. Les doigtés soigneusement réalisés par Emanuel Ax invitent tous les pianistes à se confronter à nouveau à ces miniatures. La partition Urtext Henle présente ce «classique de la modernité» dans une nouvelle gravure, très généreusement mise en page. / Partitions classique / Piano - instruments à clavier / Piano / HENLE VERLAG
