Par BEETHOVEN LUDWIG VAN. Owing to severe illness, Beethoven had to wait for over a year after completing op. 109 before beginning work on the second piece in his triptych of late sonatas: the Piano Sonata in A-flat major op. 110. The initial sketches date from summer 1821: the work was completed by the end of the year and appeared in print the following summer – in an edition so riddled with mistakes that Beethoven angrily complained to the publisher. For this new edition Jonathan Del Mar consulted all known sources and came across previously unknown information in the course of his research. The edition appears with a meticulously edited and elegantly engraved musical text incorporating the latest findingsof scholarship, supplemented by a detailed Critical Commentary and notes on performance practice in Beethoven’s day.

Beethoven's four-movement Sonata in A-flat major op. 26 belongs to his most popular works. It is dedicated to Prince Lichnowsky, one of his most generous patrons and the dedicatee of, for example, the Grande Sonate pathétique op. 13 and Symphony No. 2 op. 35. The work's initial drafts date from 1800-01 - it was first published in March 1802. This demanding sonata is highly varied in its form: it begins with a set of variations and contains the famous Marcia funebre sulla morte d'un Eroe as its third movement, earning it the nickname 'Sonata with the Funeral March?. The identity of the title's eroe (hero) remains unknown to the present day. The march was performed at Beethoven's funeral on 29 March 1827 in an arrangement for orchestra.For this Bärenreiter edition Jonathan Del Mar, possibly as one of the first editors of a modern edition, consulted the composer's autograph in the original. This enabled him to decipher details of Beethoven's handwriting in particular with regard to the exact notation of doubtful slurs. The result is a most reliable and thoroughly-researched musical text. Differing readings and editorial decisions are documented in the Critical Commentary. The edition has been finely engraved and includes practical page turns. Information on central issues of historical performance practice (pedalling, ornaments, tempo, dynamics, articulation) is provided in a detailed chapter. - Scholarly-critical Urtext edition based on most recent Beethoven research - Evaluation of Beethoven's autograph in the original - Elegant engraving with practical page turns - Informative Introduction (Eng / Ger) - Discussion of central performance practice issues (Eng / Ger) - Detailed Critical Commentary (Eng) / Piano

Par COHEN JONATHAN. Grow As A River for Flute Choir, by Jonathan Cohen. Composed for DCFlutes in celebration of their 10th Anniversary. This piece describes the life of a river from inception to maturity. It begins with tenuous drops from melting ice, slowly forming into a brook that playfully dances around rocks and over bumps until it becomes a majestic and peaceful flow. The idyll is shattered by a raging waterfall, the erratic motion and anarchy and terror are gradually replaced by the exhilaration and then peace of motion and arrival. Finally, there is proud celebration in the power and accomplishment and future of the fully mature river. / Date parution : 2022-11-29/ Répertoire / Ensemble de Flûtes

Par COHEN JONATHAN. Springtide Exaltation for Flute and Piano by Jonathan Cohen. From the composer: 'Springtide Exaltation recalls scampering out of the house into the colors of a promising spring day, reveling in the new warmth, the fresh green appearing on the trees, the exploits of a carefree weekend. Out in nature, we sit in a favorite spot and, closing our eyes, slip into a reverie, the sun and slight breeze nearly coaxing us to sleep. Then, first quietly, then building, we are roused by the voice of adventure; we jump up and sprint with joy, our best friend at our side, into the boundless possibilities of a newborn season.' / Date parution : 2022-11-29/ Répertoire / Flûte et Piano

Par FAGERLUND SEBASTIAN. Based on the film by Ingmar Bergman, Sebastian Fagerlund’s Autumn Sonata follows Charlotte Andergast, a celebrated concert pianist, as she visits the country home of her adult daughter, Eva.
