Concerto (Piano Et Orchestre)

for the Left Hand for Piano and Orchestra Piano reduction and solo part-In 1929 Paul Wittgenstein a pianist and war veteran who lost his right arm in the Great War commissioned Maurice Ravel to write a concerto for him to perform. The result was one of Ravel’s most thrilling compositions and for Wittgenstein the most important of the many works he commissioned over the course of his career.This scholarly-critical edition of Ravel’s Piano Concerto For The Left Hand is based on previously inaccessible and unknown sources. The editor Douglas Woodfull-Harris was able to consult manuscripts in the private library of the Paul Wittgenstein Estate which allowed him to retrace the work’s evolutionfrom Ravel’s autograph working copy to the first printed edition.A source of key importance to our new edition is a handwritten French copy of Ravel’s own Piano reduction (the autograph is inaccessible) that he gave to Wittgenstein to facilitate rehearsing the work. This copy is the sole source reflecting Wittgenstein’s own interpretation and containing his changes to the final cadenza. It also helps us to understand omissions in the first edition of the score as well as the Piano reduction and enabled the editor amongst other things to correct a great many notes which could be found in previous editions including the solo Piano part.The Piano reduction in our edition contains both Ravel’s and Wittgenstein’s fingering. Also included is a solo part without fingering thereby giving pianists the opportunity to enter their own fingering after having studied those of Ravel and Wittgenstein.Score and orchestral parts in large format (25.5 x 32.5 cm)Includes source descriptions and a Critical Commentary with alternative readings (Eng)Informative Introduction on the work’s history and genesis (Ger/Eng/Fr)With facsimile pagesPiano reduction with separate Urtext solo part enclosedFull score & parts (BA7881) and two-Piano reduction (BA7881-90) available for sale

Au-delà des cinq grands concertos pour piano, on a tendance à oublier que Beethoven s?occupa de ce genre déjà durant sa jeunesse à Bonn.

L?influence de Johann Christian Bach se reflète encore dans le Concerto en Mib majeur, composé en 1784.

La partition d?orchestre de l?oeuvre n?est pas conservée, il ne reste qu?une copie de la partie de piano remaniée par Beethoven. Celle-ci contient la partie de soliste sans accompagnement, sauf aux endroits où le soliste s?arrête et estrelayé par l?orchestre.

À ces endroits, une réduction de la partie d?orchestre figure alors dans la partie de piano. Conforme au texte de l?édition complète des oeuvres de Beethoven, ce concerto pour piano peut désormais être joué sous cette forme conservée ? par un pianiste sans orchestre. / [Concerto pour piano en Mi bémol Majeur WoO 4] / Classique / Partition / Agrafé /

Propre arrangement Rota pour piano à quatre mains, simplement intitulé Concerto, ont constitué la base de l'édition de Duo Pianistico di Firenze (Sara Bartolucci et Rodolfo Alessandrini), qui est à la fois pratique et fidèle au texte. / Piano 4 Mains

Beethoven's fifth and final piano concerto is at the same time the culmination of his efforts in this genre and a reflection of all his artistic skill and expertise. The surviving manuscripts provide a clear insight into his working methods and his intentions regarding the work's performance.The editor, Jonathan Del Mar, has closely scrutinised the autograph solo piano part and reproduced Beethoven's sophisticated performance instructions for the first time in a modern edition. Among other things, this has special repercussions for the left-hand figured bass line of the piano part during the tutti passages.As with the Piano Concertos Nos. 1 to 4, the piano reduction appears with a separate solo part containing all the information needed by the soloist to conduct the ensemble from the piano.- Many wholly new corrections in the solo and orchestral parts- Piano reduction with a separate solo part, as was customary in Beethoven's day- With Beethoven's continuo figures for the first time in a modern edition / Score
