The Library Of Romantic Music is a comprehensive collection of the greatest works of the Romantic period. Featuring composers like Frédéric Chopin, Claude Debussy and Gabriel Fauré, the works represented here truly some of the most beautiful ever composed. Now they're all in one conveniently spiral-bound volume, arranged for solo Piano for your sheer playing pleasure.Like the Baroque and Classical periods before it, Romantic music existed within a broader artistic, intellectual and literary movement. Emerging in the early 19th century it reflected a time of preoccupation with things mystical, spiritual, legendary and supernatural. This collection comprises fantastic original Piano works and beautiful arrangements from all the greatest composers of this era, including: Albéniz, Berlioz, Bizet, Brahms, Chopin, Dvorák, Debussy, Elgar, Fauré, Grieg, Mahler, Liszt, Mendelssohn, Puccini, Ravel and so many more.Spanning the 19th century, the Romantic movement was a reaction to what had come before. Music proved to be a particularly rich medium of expression for a new Zeitgeist that prized individualism and spirituality. Drawing together composers whose background was as diverse as the music they created, the period proved to be a very broad church indeed. This makes The Library Of Romantic Music particularly exciting, because the extraordinarily rich and expressive music is collected here in a single volume that is durable, convenient and is sure to be a mainstay of your music stand.For a simply stunning compendium of some incredible pieces of music composed by the masters, The Library Of Romantic Music is essential. The greatest compositions from such a fantastically rich period have been collected in this single volume, perfect for pianists looking for beautiful additions to their repertoire. / Piano

Bien que l?ambiance de ces ?uvres évocatrices puisse varier, l?élégance et les énergies légèrement changeantes de leur langage musical ne peuvent être que celles de Maurice Ravel. Les étudier dans cette édition complète, c?est prendre davantage conscience de sa grande originalité, mais aussi de ses efforts constants en matière de perfection de la forme et du style, qui ont amené Stravinsky à le comparer avec admiration au plus parfait des horlogers suisses . La Rapsodie Espagnole était la première composition de Ravel entièrement orchestrale. Une ?uvre dont la fantaisie exotique et le travail subtil expriment clairement la personnalité musicale distinctive de Ravel. Elle a été créée pour la première fois au Théâtre du Châlet à Paris en 1908, confirmant ainsi la réputation du jeune compositeur en tant que poète d'orchestre doté d'une originalité scintillante. En 1911, Ravel recrée pour orchestre sa composition très réussie pour deux pianos, la Suite Mother Goose, une ?uvre vraiment magique dont l'ambiance va de la désolation à l'exaltation. De la même manière, Ravel reprend sa brillante composition pour piano Valses Nobles et Sentimentales de 1911 en tant que partition pour orchestre en 1912 (un ballet inspiré de sa création à Paris cette année-là) et organise son ?uvre pour piano de 1899, Pavane for a Dead Princess, pour orchestre en 1910. les arrangements orchestraux des quatre ?uvres en ont fait des favoris parmi les concerts partout dans le monde. Cette édition superbement préparée rassemble en un seul volume les partitions complètes faisant autorité de ces quatre ?uvres, reproduites d?éditions originales en français. Dover (1989), republication de Rapsodie Espagnole, de Ma mère l'Oye et de Valses Nobles et Sentimentales, initialement publiées par Durand, Paris, 1908, 1911 et 1912, respectivement, et de Pavane pour une infante défunte, initialement publiées par Max Eschig , Paris, 1910.

All the uplifting waltz music from the classical chart topping album arranged for Piano solo, including The Blue Danube . With Forever Vienna , the Johann Strauss Orchestra has broken records to become the best selling orchestral album ever, topping the classical album charts from the time of its release for over three months. The album has also transcended its traditional market, reaching the number 2 spot on the pop charts. Much of this success is down to conductor André Rieu who has injected fun back into the waltz by not so much conducting as leading the orchestra with his Violin and a mixture of wit, humour and spontaneity rarely seen in the classical world. / Piano

Par POULENC FRANCIS / GENDRON. Born in Paris in 1899, Francis Poulenc soon became a notable composer and pianist. His Serenade, originally composed in 1925-1926 for Voice and Piano, met much success as part of his Bawdy Songs. Therefore, it was well-received when Maurice Gendron transcribed it for Cello and Piano. Poulenc, as a member of Les Six, composed music in a style contrary to that of Richard Wagner and impressionists Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel. Serenade reflects the composer's contrasting style, making use of a 6/8 time signature, double stops, variations in articulation and wide range on the Cello. Being an imaginative and evocative composition, Serenade, transcribed for Cello and Piano, is a pleasurable addition to the repertoire. / Répertoire d'Examen / Répertoire / Violoncelle et Piano

Par POULENC FRANCIS. Born in Paris in 1899, Francis Poulenc soon became a notable composer and pianist. His Trois Pièces for Piano were composed in 1928, towards the beginning of his career and paved the way for exceptional Piano works from the composer. Poulenc, as a member of Les Six, composed music in a style contrary to that of Richard Wagner and impressionists Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel. Trois Pièces for Piano is made up of three movements, 1. Pastorale, 2. Hymne and 3. Toccata, all of which exploit the Piano to its full potential. Being an imaginative and evocative composition, TroisPièces for Piano is a pleasure to play for all pianists./ Répertoire / Piano

Modern and Contemporary Music. Par . Now finally in English too: The third part of the organ method Historical Performance Practice in Organ Playing follows on from part two with contributions by Guy Bovet (on Jehan Alain), Hans-Ola Ericsson, Anders Ekenberg, Markus Rupprecht (Olivier Messiaen), Hans Fagius (Maurice Duruflé), Jeremy Filsell (Marcel Dupré), Bernhard Haas (Arnold Schönberg, Ernst Krenek, John Cage, György Ligeti, and others, plus the latest developments) and Armin Schoof (neoclassicism). As in the first two parts of the organ method, here too a representative selection of composers is discussed. Alongside mainly personal recollections (e.g. from Hans Fagius) there are analytical essays (including by Jeremy Filsell). Bernhard Haas has organised one section of his text as an introduction to the playing techniques and aesthetics of new music, beginning with pieces which are easy to play. This English edition contains new chapters by Kevin Bowyer (The Development of New Organ Music in Britain / Contemporary Organ Music in North America). Laukvik?s organ method Historical Performance Practice in Organ Playing has now become established as a standard work. It is aimed at organists who want to incorporate the latest thinking on historical performance practice into their interpretations of works. The three volumes provide a practical introduction in a detailed, scholarly and comprehensible form, by giving organists as precise a picture of the interpretative traditions and aims of previous and modern/ contemporary eras as possible. The editions are aimed not only at organists, but also at organ teachers who are looking for a manual to use in their teaching. / Date parution : 2022-05-03/ Recueil / Orgue
