Carl Nielsen

Piano Score based on The Carl Nielsen Edition Series II Instrumental Music Vol.9 Part 2.

Carl Nielsen is doubtlessly one of Denmark’s most important and popular composers. This is no more evident than in his 1916 work for Piano Solo Chaconne Op.32 which followed a seventeen-year gap in his compositions for that instrument. It is a decidedly dynamic work in constant motion from the moment the simple opening theme begins through the crescendo and to the winding down and end of this piece. The twenty variations that form the core of this piece themselves have a varied range sometimes comparatively easy showing Bach’s influence other times he uses highly complex contrasts. This is a fine example of Nielsen’s work and uses mood and texture togreat effect making it ideal for concert or recital performance whilst the variations make it a clever training manual.

This is the Score edition of Carl Nielsen's Concerto For Violin And Orchestra from Opus 33.

Canto serioso for Horn and Piano-Carl Nielsen's Canto Serioso for Horn in F and Piano. Urtext edition score.The Danish composer Carl Nielsen was one of the most original composers at the turn of the 20th century. Basedon the German Romantic tradition he developed his own musical language especially in his symphonies that are still played very frequently. He also however often turned to chamber music settings.CantoSerioso was originally written as an audition piece for the Copenhagen Opera Orchestra where the position of low Horn player was to be filled. This fairly short work makes the most of the low register and theinstrument’s sonorous mid-range making it a welcome addition to the late Romantic repertoire for Horn.

Dance Of The Cockerel (Hanedans) from the opera Masquerade by Carl Nielsen arranged for for Piano Duet (4 hands) by Esther Bobrova Lange. Arranger's preface: Dance of the Cockerel is a ballet insertion from Act Three of Carl Nielsen's opera Masquerade it is written for a large symphony orchestra. In this version for piano duet (four hands) I used the full orchestral score making sure that the essential orchestra parts were included. The melodic parts and the accompaniment are equally distributed between the primo and secondo parts. The nuances and articulations are written according to the originalscore yet with consideration to the possibilities of the piano. In one of his letters Carl Nielsen wrote that Dance of the Cockerel is like a polonaise. Presumably he meant that it should be played with pride and dignity in order to characterize a young cockerel surrounded by adoring hens that fight for his favour. (Esther Bobrova Lange)
