Rhapsodie. Par JANACEK LEOS. The rhapsody for orchestra “Taras Bulba” is the most important and on account of its genesis the most interesting of the three programmatic orchestral works the composer wrote between 1914 and 1920. All three of these works were responses to the contemporary social and political context: “The Fiddler’s Child” was an indictment of the state of society, “Taras Bulba” was a reaction to the international conflict of World War I, while “The Ballad of Blaník” was inspired by the birth of Czechoslovakia. “Taras Bulba” is now available in the New Study Score series. These completely redesigned scores offer an unparalleled insight into the music of the last hundred years. Great care has been taken to select the best available content for this journey through music history, and every score has been edited according to the latest quality standards.

Par RAE JAMES. All of the pieces in the Universal Edition Debut series are written for young instrumentalists in their earliest stages of learning, and can be performed as solos or in unison with other players. Some of the pieces have an optional second part and can also serve as ensemble material. For the student, this collection contains fun inspiration cartoons, a CD providing demo performances for listening and play-along tracks, and as a bonus, the cartoons can be downloaded and printed for free and colored in. For the teacher, selected piano accompaniments can be downloaded and printed for free, but a complete volume of accompaniments can also be purchased separately.

Contrairement à la première mondiale de Marteau sans maître (1952-55), celle du Tombeau pour orchestre (1959), qui a eu lieu à Donaueschingen 17 octobre 1959, passée presque inaperçue - outshone par la victoire inattendue de Pierre Boulez comme chef d'orchestre, lorsqu'il est intervenu pour remplacer Hans Rosbaud à la tête de la Südwestfunk-Sinfonieorchester. Initialement conçu comme un hommage individuel pour Prince Max Egon zu Fürstenberg, décédé subitement au printemps 1959, le travail a été finalement inclus dans le Pli selon pli cycle (1957-62, 1983, 1990). Pour célébrer le 85e anniversaire de naissance du compositeur et le 50e anniversaire de la première mondiale, la Fondation de Paul Sacher et Universal Edition maintenant publient les deux manuscrits originaux du score pour la première fois : le projet de crayon et une copie équitable dans les encres de couleurs différentes. Ces exemples de reproductions de haute qualité sont également les premières preuves de l'amitié de Boulez avec Paul Sacher. Le compositeur a présenté les scores de Sacher dans les années 1960.

Arr.Collatti Diego. Par GARDEL CARLOS. The name of Carlos Gardel is synonymous with the Tango - his compositions in the genre have long been considered classics. Diego Collatti has collaborated with Universal Edition for several years now, producing arrangements for instrumental solo and duet of many of Gardel's best loved works. In this publication, he returns to the original versions and presents six of them almost as Gardel intended, as songs for tenor voice and piano. Two of the pieces, 'El día que me quieras” and 'Mi Buenos Aires querido” featured in films of those names in 1934 and 1935. The words to these tangos are by Alfredo Le Pera who worked with Gardel on those films and sadly died in the same plane crash that killed Carlos Gardel in 1935. Le Pera is credited with elevating the literary quality of tango lyrics while respecting the musical form. The texts are presented in the original Spanish./ Recueil / Tenor et Piano
