Robert Schumann - Works for Piano Trio

Clara Wieck’s sincerest wish was that her future husband Robert Schumann turn his extraordinary genius toward the larger and more challenging task of composing orchestral music. Confiding in her diary in 1839 just one year before her marriage she explained that “it would be best if he composed for Orchestra: his imagination cannot find sufficient scope in the Piano…” In the years that followed their marriage Robert Schumann continued to devote much of his attention to Piano music but he also found the time to comply with his beloved Clara’s wish by creating a number of musical pieces composed specifically for Piano andOrchestra. Although Schumann’s genius is most in evidence in his masterful solo Piano compositions and superb lieder his lively and provocative imagination manifests itself with equal aplomb in the works composed for Piano and Orchestra. The same compelling romantic and lyrical qualities that captivate lovers of Schumann’s Piano music are evident in these compositions. Three of his finest are presented here in full score including the A Minor Piano Concerto one of the most popular and frequently performed concertos ever written. All demonstrate his remarkably innovative approach to music diverting substantially from the classic models of the day and display his immense creativity as well as his warmth and sensitivity. Included in this collection of Schumann’s compositions for Piano and Orchestra are: Piano Concerto In A minor Op. 54 (published 1846) Concertstück Op.92 (Introduction and Allegro appassionato; published 1852) Introduction and Allegro Op. 134 (published 1855) These three works by one of the greatest masters of romanticism will delight musicians music lovers and students as well as devotees of Schumann. Pianists will be especially pleased to have these appealing Schumann works in one convenient edition available at

On the 200th anniversary of Robert Schumann's birth an ambitious project is coming to a close: For the first time since Clara Schumann's Complete Edition of 1879-93 all of the works for Piano solo are appearing as oneeditorial project.Spanning almost ten years of painstaking work all of the Schumann titles published by G. Henle Publishers have undergone a careful revision. The Schumann expert Ernst Herttrich has closely examined eachedition and also dedicated himself to those works that were previously missing from the catalogue.The result is being published in this new collection comprising six volumes as well as study editions in a slipcase. Theyreplace the former four volumes (HN108-HN115). Arranged clearly according to opus numbers it includes not only all of Schumann's Piano works revised to reflect the latest scholarly findings but also informative accompanyingtexts alternative versions and much more besides.Being a complete works collection a general difficulty level cannot be applied to these volumes.

Written in just two days in February 1849, Robert Schumann's Fantasy Pieces Op. 73 were first performed by his wife Clara and the clarinettist Johann Gottlieb Kotte. Initially entitled Soirée Pieces, the composer later had the works published under the name of Fantasy Pieces, thus establishing a connection with poetical aspects. The first edition published in July 1849 contained not only a clarinet part but also a violin and cello part. Since then, they have become an integral part of the Romantic repertoire for cello and piano. This edition is based on the text of the first edition as well as on subsequent corrections from Schumann's personal copy, with the extant composition manuscript serving as an important corrective. / Violoncelle Et Piano

L'intention de Robert Schumann pour créer les précieux et, en ce qui concerne didactique, musique judicieusement créée pour les enfants et les jeunes ne se limitait pas à la für die Jugend opus 68 de l'Album mondialement célèbre pour piano (1848). Hormis la Liederalbum für die Jugend Opus 79 (1849), il a également créé deux oeuvres qui devraient encourager jouant piano quatre mains et qui était très populaires dans la musique intérieure du XIXe siècle : le progressivement arrangé 12 vierhändige Klavierstücke für kleine und große Kinder opus 85 (1849) et Kinderball Opus 130 (1853), qui a mis le leichte Sechs Tanzstücke ensemble dans une charmante suite archaïque. Basé sur le score de la nouvelle édition complète de Schumann (éd. par Joachim Draheim und Bernhard Appel), la nouvelle édition de la Wiener Urtext édition pour la première fois présente un urtext fiable basée sur les sources, y compris un morceau de piano facile jusqu'ici inédit qui était destiné à 85 op. / Piano 4 Mains

Based on Robert Schumann. Neue Ausgabe sämtlicher Werke, Band II/3. Par SCHUMANN ROBERT. The Fairy-Tale Narratives (Märchenerzählungen) for B-flat Clarinet (ad libitum Violin), Viola and Piano, Op. 132, belong to the few Schumann works that were composed, revised and published in a short time: composed in Düsseldorf, at beginning of October 1853, the new composition was already offered for publication to the Breitkopf & Härtel publishing house on 3 November and printed in February 1854. Composition and publication of the Märchenerzählungen were accompanied, though, by difficult times, the final days before the composer was admitted to the psychiatric clinic in Endenich. The work’s reception lies in the shadow of the last creative period: The pieces were associated with his life’s darker phases and were very little played. The Märchenerzählungen transmit Schumann’s single work for this unusual piano trio with viola and clarinet. The only well-known earlier example in this setting at that time is Mozart’s “Kegelstatt” Trio K 498 (composed in 1786). Schumann was certainly already acquainted with the work from his Leipzig years – it was played in one of the “quartet sessions” in 1829. / Niveau : Intermédiaire à Avancé / Répertoire / Clarinette, Alto et Piano

Par MENDELSSOHN-BARTHOLDY FELIX. Full score for Violin, Cello and Piano of Felix Mendelssohn's Piano Trio No. 1 In D minor Op. 49 and Piano Trio No. 2 in C minor Op. 66. Upon hearing the first trio, Robert Schumann declared Mendelssohn is the Mozart of the nineteenth century ! Written in the composer's famously flowing Romantic style, these two works are staples of the repertoire and anchors of many chamber music series. Both appear here for the first time in a single and affordable study edition. Mendelssohn drew upon a variety of influences in his musical style - chiefly Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven. Like the other German composers of his generation, Mendelssohn created works that mirror the era'stension between Classicism and Romanticism. These trios are universally regarded as among his finest works, with marked contrasts ranging from slow movements to lively scherzos in the manner of his Songs Without Words./ Répertoire / 3 Pianos

Urtext. Based on Robert Schumann. Neue Ausgabe sämtlicher Werke, Band III/1/5. Par SCHUMANN ROBERT. Amongst the lesser known works by Schumann, his piano pieces evidence of the previous masters that he studied. He was heavily influenced by both Bach and Beethoven.
