Chopin, Frederic
Barcarolle for Piano in F-sharp major op. 60
BARENREITER URTEXT
Editor: Bitzan, Wendelin
BA 11831 | EUR 8.95 | 9790006566105
In 1845/46 Chopin composed his bel canto inspired "Barcarolle" in F-sharp major op. 60, which became a model for subsequent generations of composers.

In his evaluation of the divergent and partly even contradictory sources – due to the different engraving models (Stichvorlagen) for the first editions published almost simultaneously in Paris, London, and Leipzig – the editor obtains new results and readings, especially regarding problematic passages.

Chopin's pedal indications from the other sources, which differ from the main source, are added in small print. Information on this is provided in the Critical Commentary, which also documents the numerous variants of the sources and editorial decisions. An informative preface (Ger/Eng) discusses the genesis of the work and Chopin's specific understanding of the final shape of his works.

Hardy Rittner supplements Chopin's fingering from a historically informed perspective. He gives in-depth advice on central questions of performance practice (including cantilena style, rubato and pedal use) and discusses different interpretational approaches (Ger/Eng).

Practical page turns (with a fold-out page) and a reader-friendly engraving round off this new edition.

Adler-McKean, Jack
The Techniques of Tuba Playing
BVK 2421 | EUR 54.00 | German/English text | 9783761824214
This book on the tuba is a companion for composers and players alike, deepening their understanding of this somewhat neglected family of instruments. It gives tuba players an opportunity to master and employ new performance techniques on their instrument, particularly in contemporary music.

Jack Adler-McKean offers helpful instruction in various tuning mechanisms, resonance properties, new forms of notation and contemporary practices. Using the most recent research, he subdivides and reconstructs processes of sound generation and modification to display the broad range of tonal possibilities in the tuba family, many of which can also be applied to other brass instruments.

The text is illustrated with numerous music examples and diagrams and is supplied with instructive audio samples which can be downloaded from the Barenreiter website (under Multimedia).

The author:

Born in London in 1988, Jack Adler-McKean works primarily as a tuba player with a focus on contemporary music. He has played in orchestras including the WDR Sinfonieorchester Köln and the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra. He has also given solo and ensemble recitals, for example in New York and Buenos Aires with Klangforum Wien, Ensemble Modern and the Deutsche Oper Berlin

Bilingual Foreword (Ger/Eng)

Handel, George Frideric
Apollo e Dafne ("La terra è liberata") HWV 122
BARENREITER URTEXT
Editor: Marx, Hans Joachim | Piano reduction: Sokolowski, Christopher
BA 4104-90 | EUR 12.95 | Vocal score (Ital) | 9790006568222
The episode from Ovid's "Metamorphoses" in which Daphne attempts to escape Apollo's advances by turning into a laurel tree, causing the devastated god to weave a laurel crown in memory of the nymph, has inspired the masterworks of many artists. Gian Lorenzo Bernini, whose famous marble sculpture is housed in the Galleria Borghese in Rome, is only one example of this. Many composers set this myth to music including young George Frideric Handel with his grand-scale dramatic cantata "Apollo e Dafne". The composer started working on the work shortly before leaving Italy in 1709, most likely finishing it the following year in Hanover.

Barenreiter now presents a vocal score of the opera-like cantata, the highlights of which include Dafne's aria "Felicissima quest'alma" (accompanied by solo oboe) and Apollo's famous lament "Cara pianta".

This Urtext edition is based on the "'Halle Handel Edition", offering a Foreword (Ger/Eng) as well as literal translations into German and English.
