Fantasy for Piano (Four-Hands)

BÄRENREITER URTEXT
Editor: Litschauer, Walburga
BA 11862 | EUR 16.95 | Performance score | 9790006578276
Schubert's Fantasy in F minor is one of the most important compositions in the piano four-hands repertoire. Its four thematically related movements are played one after the other without interruption. The work was composed between January and April 1828, the year of Schubert's death. It is dedicated to his student Karoline von Esterházy, with whom he is said to have had an unhappy love affair. Schubert did not live to see the publication of the fantasy in March 1829 by A. Diabelli & Co. in Vienna.

This Urtext edition is based on the authoritative musical text of the "New Schubert Edition". An informative Foreword and valuable notes on the performance practice of Schubert's time (including articulation, use of pedal, ornamentation) with a special focus on Schubert's characteristic notation of accent markings of varying lengths introduce the fantasy. ...

A wide selection from Smetana's extensive œuvre for the piano

Technically less demanding compositions, easy to medium level of difficulty

Foreword (Cz/Eng/Ger) by Smetana scholar Olga Mojžíšová
Smetana, Bedrich
Easy Piano Pieces and Dances
Editor: Šindler, Jaroslav
BA 11578 | EUR 14.95 | Performance score | 9790260109872
For the most part, the rich piano legacy of Bedrich Smetana (1824–1884) comprises compositions that require the skills of an advanced or even professional pianist. In this album, which forms part of the popular "Easy Piano Pieces and Dances" series, the composer's technically easier pieces have been compiled to provide an ideal introduction to Smetana's varied piano repertoire.

The album contains two well-known concert pieces ("Souvenir" from the cycle "Sketches" op. 4 and the Polka in G minor from the cycle "Three Poetic Polkas" op. 8), but also lesser-known, smaller pieces written for various occasions (e.g. several "Album Leaves"). All compositions include fingering by the renowned Czech pianist and Smetana interpreter Jan Novotný.

Volume 10 of the new Urtext edition of Schubert's lieder contains works composed between September 1816 and August 1817. Above all, the collaboration with his friend, the poet Johann Mayrhofer, was decisive for Schubert's development as a lieder composer in these months.

Dvorák, Antonín

BÄRENREITER URTEXT
Editors: Simon, Robert / Hájek, Jonáš
BA 10440 | EUR 11.95 | Vocal score (Cz/Eng/Ger) | 9790260109889
More than sixty years after the publication of Jarmil Burghauser's edition, Bärenreiter has published a new critical edition of Dvorák's "Rusalka" (BA10438) which meets today's editorial standards and on which this individual edition of Rusalka's famous aria is based.

In "Glistening moon in the velvet sky" from Act 1 of the opera, some small changes were also made to the Czech vocal text based on Dvorák's autograph.

A new piano reduction by Petr Koronthály largely adapts the excellent and well-manageable piano part that Antonín Dvorák is known to have contributed to and authorised.

Théodore Dubois Year 2024
Théodore Dubois (1837–1924) was a conductor, organist, teacher, and one of the leading Parisian composers of the 19th century. His contemporaries frequently compared him to Delibes, Widor and Lalo. Yet he rarely turned to the musical language of his age, writing instead in a vein that reveals influences from Mendelssohn, Weber, Gounod, and the dramatic style of Berlioz.

Discover Dubois' complete organ works published in Urtext performing editions for the first time.
