for Violoncello and Piano-Cesar Franck?s Sonata for Piano and Violin is one of the most treasured works in the Violin repertoire a masterpiece of cyclic form with a gracefulness and expressive force almost paradigmatic for the age of musical Romanticism. This work was composed in 1886 and was dedicated to the Belgian violinist and composer Eugène Ysaÿe.Franck?s friend the cellist Jules Desart was so impressed when he heard the Violin Sonata performed at the Société nationale de musique in Paris that he adapted the work for his instrument. This arrangement was first published in 1887 by inserting the Cello part into the Piano score of the original edition. For this purpose thePiano score had received a new cover and the publisher had expanded the title of the composition to ?Sonate pour Piano et Violon ou Violoncelle?. This version by the cellist Jules Delsart for Piano and Violoncello is the only arrangement of the work authorized by the composer and its first edition represents the main source for Bärenreiter?s new scholarly-critical publication.This Barenreiter edition also includes a separate movement ?Mélancolie? first published after Franck?s death in 1911 again for the same instrumentation Piano and Violin or Violoncello. This short piece is based on a solfège exercise and was written at the height of the composer?s creative powers at about the same time as his famous Violin sonata.The edition is rounded off by an informative text on the genesis and reception history of the two compositions (Ger/Fr/Eng) a complete list of sources editorial notes and a Critical Commentary (Eng).Pioneering new Urtext editionInformative text on the genesis and reception history of the two compositions (Ger/Fr/Eng)Detailed Critical Commentary (Eng)Also available:Sonata; Andantino quietoso Op.6; Mélancolie for Piano & Violin BA9425.Sonata arranged for Piano & Viola BA10918.Sonata in A major arranged for Piano & Flute BA8734

arranged for Piano and Viola-Cesar Franck’s Sonata for Piano and Violin is one of the most treasured works in the Violin repertoire a masterpiece of cyclic form with a gracefulness and expressive force almost paradigmatic for the age of musical Romanticism. This work was composed in 1886 and was dedicated to the Belgian violinist and composer Eugène Ysaÿe.After Franck’s death in 1890 the original publisher of the Sonata the Parisian house Julien Hamelle announced an arrangement of the work for Viola but it has not been possible to locate any copy of this publication. The present arrangement for Viola is largely based on Jules Delsart’s arrangement for Piano and Cello the onlyversion of the Sonata which the composer authorized. However the Viola part here also adopts extensive passages in their original register or remains in the middle octave especially in those passages where the Cello lies two octaves beneath the Violin.Being set in the alto register the part thus lies between the other two string versions lending the Sonata a delightful hybrid hue beyond the brilliance of the Violin and the sonorousness of the Cello. The Piano part has been left intact and is thus identical to that of the original version.The edition is rounded off by an informative text on the genesis and reception history of the Sonata (Ger/Fr/Eng).

High Voice in A with Piano-Cesar Franck's Panis Angelicus has long been popular amongst vocalists. This arrangement is for High Voice the range being small - from the A above middle C to the F Sharp above it - and the piece is in A Major.

Cesar Franck’s Panis Angelicus is presented here in its original piano/vocal form newly edited with both Latin and English lyrics. The fluid piano score often uses four-part choral voicing to support the angelic melody. This arrangement is written here for high voice well within a mezzo-soprano’s range.

Although Cesar Franck won many prizes during his student days his music was generally unrecognised by his contemporaries. His pieces were written in the romantic style whilst retaining a classical structure and his later compositions were referred to as 'cathedrals of sound'. Panis Angelicus is poetic and almost serene and this arrangement by Philip Sparke retains all of the beauty of the original.

from the Symphonic Poem \'Psyché\'. Par FRANCK CESAR. César Franck est un compositeur, pianiste, organiste et professeur de musique. Amour et Psychéest le sixième et dernier poème symphonique du compositeur et fut achevé en 1887. La première eut lieu à Paris en 1888 et fut un grand succès, mais la pièce tomba plus tard complètement dans l\'oubli et ce ne fut que grâce à un minutieux travail de recherche si elle a été reprogrammée dans les salles de concert. L?amour complexe entre Psyché et Cupidon est une histoire originale tirée des Métamorphoses, écrite au IIe siècle après J.C. par Apulée. Le récit raconte les obstacles à surmonter dans l\'amour et leur union finale. Le poème symphonique est divisé en trois parties et implique la présence d\'un ch?ur. Le mouvement qui fait l\'objet de cet arrangement, Psyché et Érosse trouve à la fin de la deuxième partie. La version pour orchestre à vent de Franco Cesarini est particulièrement soignée dans les nuances des couleurs instrumentales et représente un véritable test visant à démontrer la musicalité et les capacités d\'interprétation des orchestres et leurs chefs. / Date parution : 2022-07-23/ Répertoire / Orchestre de Vents
