Par SCHUMANN ROBERT. Robert Schumann once described his lieder as a ”mirror image of his self”. This applies particularly to his compositions from Heinrich Heine's 'Buch der Lieder”. What began as a lyrical intermezzo, then developed into 'Dichterliebe”, a work with which Schumann identified the ardour of his love for Clara Wieck. This work still presents an enigma to performers- how Schumann interpretes Heine's irony in his music is often discussed. But one thing is certain: with 'Dichterliebe” the composer created what is perhaps the best-loved and one of the most tightly-woven lieder cycles of the Romantic period. This new edition presents the work based on the first edition. It takes Schumann's autograph score into consideration, an autograph score where there have recently been discussions as to whether it should be presented as an independent alternative version. The four lieder omitted by Schumann from the printed edition are included in the appendix. - High-quality Urtext edition of this well-known song cycle - Appendix includes four lieder by Schumann which he did not include in the original cycle - Comprehensive foreword and critical commentary (Ger/Eng)/ Répertoire / Chant et Piano

With the new Urtext Primo series, the Wiener Urtext Edition wants to close the gap arising at the point of transition to additional lessons after having studied a piano method. Beginning with a performance level which is outlined by pieces such as Bach's Minuet in G (BWV Anh. 116), Mozart's Minuet in F (KV 5) or Schumann's Wilder Reiter (Op. 68/8), works by three different composers are selected for each volume of the Urtext Primo series, with the aim of offering piano pupils (or even adults who want to resume piano playing) a wide range of repertoire pieces on the basis of which they can enhance their technical and musical skills. The pieces' range of levels of difficulty is relatively narrow so that the volume can be used continuously over a period of about two years. This is what distinguishes the Urtext Primo approach from almost all common anthologies. The selected repertoire takes into account not only pieces of the classic canon of lessons, but also lesser known works which are in no way of less importance for piano lessons. The Urtext Primo volumes are published in the internationally recognised standard of the Wiener Urtext editions. The explanations included in each volume shall help to deepen the knowledge of musical styles, music history and piano playing. A repertoire chart at the end of each volume gives a rough overview of the levels of difficulty of the selected pieces.Volume 4 combines works of the German Romanticism by Schumann, Brahms and Theodor Kirchner. Apart from well known pieces from Schumann's 'Album for the Youth' and the easiest waltzes from opus 39 (in the easier version) by Brahms, the selection contains the attractive set of variations from Schumann's first Youth Sonata Op. 118/1 and Brahms' Saraband in A minor WoO 5/1 as well as a number of pleasant pieces by Theodor Kirchner which continue the tonal air of Schumann and Brahms in easy playable pieces. / Piano

Nouvellement re-découvert dans la perspective de l'Année SchumannIl ya environ trois ans, un manuscrit jusqu'alors inconnu d'une feuille d'album pour piano de Robert Schumann a été trouvé dans le Leopold Sophien Bibliothèque d'Überlingen. Le petit morceau de piano, intitulée 'Ahnung', avait été donné et consacré par Klara Schumann à une de ses amies, le lithographe et écrivain Julius Allgeyer. Dans la série Wiener Urtext Edition, ce petit ouvrage est publié pour la première fois dans la perspective de l'Année Schumann 2010. Une copie du Schumann autographe retrouvé est inclus dans l'édition. Le expressif, relativement facile à jouer morceau ajoute au répertoire de piano romantique. / Piano

«Je trouve singulier et étonnant», écrit Schumann à Mendelssohn, «que presque chaque motif qui se forme en moi porte en soi les caractéristiques de multiples combinaisons contrapuntiques». 1845 est l?année où Schumann découvre sa passion pour la composition de fugues, passion qu?il partage avec Clara, sa femme. Au cours d?études communes vont ainsi naître à côté des «Six Préludes et Fugues» de Clara des ?uvres pour piano-pédalier de Schumann ainsi que ses 4 Fugues pour piano op. 72 qu?il tenait à considérer comme «Pièces caractéristiques seulement de forme plus stricte». Les Schumanniens avertis peuvent eux aussi découvrir là une nouvelle facette de ce génie si divers. / [Four Fugues Opus 72] / Classique / Doigtés: Klaus Schilde / Partition / Broché / Edition Urtext

York Höllers Beitrag zur klassischen und auch für Neue Musik bedeutsamen Gattung des Trios für Klarinette, Bratsche und Klavier kam 2014 beim ?Fokus Perspektive Schumann' in der Alten Oper Frankfurt zur Uraufführung mit Mitgliedern des Ensemble Modern. Höller spürt in der schwungvoll mit Fanfarenmotiven und Halbtontrillern anhebenden Komposition einem spezifischen Gestus Robert Schumanns nach. Mit seinen Märchenerzählungen op. 132 hat der rheinische Meister ja selbst einen Markstein für dieselbe Besetzung geschaffen, und auf Schumanns ?Aufschwung' aus den Fantasiestücken op. 12 weist Höller nicht nur im Titel seines Stücks, sondern auch mit einem Zitat an zentraler Stelle hin. Leidenschaftliche, den Hörer unmittelbar ansprechende und für alle drei Spieler dankbare 11 Minuten Kammermusik. / Clarinette, Alto Et Piano

Par SCHUMANN ROBERT. In 1925, Breitkopf & Härtel approached the young pianist Wilhelm Kempff to prepare Clara Schumann’s “Instructive Edition” of her husband’s works for the new engraving. “[…] The comparison with the autograph and the Urtext edition [First Schumann Complete Edition], the results of the Schumann research, the modern principles of notation – all of this would have to be taken into account in the new engraving and could lead to a significant improvement in the edition without compromising the spirit of editing by Clara Schumann. ” The present edition thus conveys the reading of one of the most important pianists of the twentieth century, which we make fully accessible intime for the 200th birthday of Clara Schumann.

Par SCHUMANN ROBERT. Clara Wieck's sincerest wish was that her future husband, Robert Schumann, turn his extraordinary genius toward the larger and more challenging task of composing orchestral music. Confiding in her diary in 1839, just one year before her marriage, she explained that ; it would be best if he composed for Orchestra: his imagination cannot find sufficient scope in the Piano… In the years that followed their marriage Robert Schumann continued to devote much of his attention to Piano music, but he also found the time to comply with his beloved Clara's wish by creating a number of musical pieces composed specifically for Piano andOrchestra. Although Schumann 's genius is most in evidence in his masterful solo Piano compositions and superb lieder, his lively and provocative imagination manifests itself with equal aplomb in the works composed for Piano and Orchestra. The same compelling romantic and lyrical qualities that captivate lovers of Schumann 's Piano music are evident in these compositions. Three of his finest are presented here in full score, including the A Minor Piano Concerto, one of the most popular and frequently performed concertos ever written. All demonstrate his remarkably innovative approach to music, diverting substantially from the classic models of the day, and display his immense creativity as well as his warmth and sensitivity. Included in this collection of Schumann 's compositions for Piano and Orchestra are: Piano Concerto In A minor, Op. 54 (published 1846) Concertstuck, Op. 92 (Introduction and Allegro appassionato; published 1852) Introduction and Allegro, Op. 134 (published 1855) These three works by one of the greatest masters of romanticism will delight musicians, music lovers and students, as well as devotees of Schumann. Pianists will be especially pleased to have these appealing Schumann works in one convenient edition available at / Date parution : 2019-12-12/ Répertoire / Piano et Orchestre
