Brahms' Waltz

With the new Urtext Primo series, the Wiener Urtext Edition wants to close the gap arising at the point of transition to additional lessons after having studied a piano method. Beginning with a performance level which is outlined by pieces such as Bach's Minuet in G (BWV Anh. 116), Mozart's Minuet in F (KV 5) or Schumann's Wilder Reiter (Op. 68/8), works by three different composers are selected for each volume of the Urtext Primo series, with the aim of offering piano pupils (or even adults who want to resume piano playing) a wide range of repertoire pieces on the basis of which they can enhance their technical and musical skills. The pieces' range of levels of difficulty is relatively narrow so that the volume can be used continuously over a period of about two years. This is what distinguishes the Urtext Primo approach from almost all common anthologies. The selected repertoire takes into account not only pieces of the classic canon of lessons, but also lesser known works which are in no way of less importance for piano lessons. The Urtext Primo volumes are published in the internationally recognised standard of the Wiener Urtext editions. The explanations included in each volume shall help to deepen the knowledge of musical styles, music history and piano playing. A repertoire chart at the end of each volume gives a rough overview of the levels of difficulty of the selected pieces.Volume 4 combines works of the German Romanticism by Schumann, Brahms and Theodor Kirchner. Apart from well known pieces from Schumann's 'Album for the Youth' and the easiest waltzes from opus 39 (in the easier version) by Brahms, the selection contains the attractive set of variations from Schumann's first Youth Sonata Op. 118/1 and Brahms' Saraband in A minor WoO 5/1 as well as a number of pleasant pieces by Theodor Kirchner which continue the tonal air of Schumann and Brahms in easy playable pieces. / Piano

Brahms? popular 16 ?Waltzes? opus 39 composed in 1866 for four hands were transcribed by Brahms one year later for two hands. At the request of his publisher Brahms also wrote an easier version of the work for solo piano. Brahms himself described the first version as suitable for 'reasonable hands' that is for proficient players and the easier version as 'perhaps for prettier hands' that is for domestic music-making. He initially described the latter version to his publisher as a 'children?s edition'. The catchy and musically easily accessible pieces are among the composer?s most popular works and are particularly suitable for piano students and lovers of the Romanticrepertoire.Both versions of the ?Waltzes? op. 39 (BA 9602 BA 9603) are available in separate editions and form an important contribution to Bärenreiter?s series of Brahms?s works in scholarly-critical Urtext editions.

Brahms’ Hungarian Dances count on brilliant and spirited virtuosity whereas his 16 Waltzes Op. 39 are more modest and intimate. Yet they are just as haunting who isn’t familiar with the gently rockingmelody of no. 14 that is one of Brahms’ best-known musical ideas? His publisher must have had an inkling of the success of this collection as shortly after its publication in its original version for Piano four hands in1866 he asked the composer for a version for Piano solo. Henle are now publishing it in a revised edition based on the musical text of the new Brahms Complete Edition.

Par BRAHMS JOHANNES. '… and so gladly would I have given you a hundred-thousand kisses!”- Georg Friedrich Daumer A circle of friends as a vocal quartet alternating with solo voices and two good pianists - Brahms wrote his 'Liebeslieder Walzer” not for the grand concert hall but as chamber music for use at home. His first collection op. 52 was so successful that in 1874 he wrote a new set on poems by Daumer and Goethe entitled 'Neue Liebeslieder”. In 2010 the Swiss bank UBS placed the autograph of the Neue Liebeslieder on permanent loan to the music room of the Zentralbibliothek Zürich. For this occasion the library, together with the Brahms Institute of Lübeck University of Music and the musicology department of Zurich University, organised a symposium on the 'Liebeslieder Walzer” and their context. Brahms' lavishly reproduced manuscript appears in its own hand-stitched volume accompanied by the papers featured at the authoritative symposium in a separate booklet. All of this is presented in a handsome cloth-bound box along with an audio CD, allowing the work to be experienced both visually and aurally./ Répertoire / Fac-similé

Nach dem Erscheinen der 16 Walzer für Klavier zu vier Händen gelang es Brahms' Verleger den Komponisten von einer Fassung für Klavier zu zwei Händen zu überzeugen. Brahms schlug - nach anfänglichem Zögern - zwei Varianten vor, eine für ?vernünftige Hände und eine - vielleicht für die schöneren'. Beide Fassungen erschienen 1867. Die erleichterte, von Brahms auch ?Kinderfassung' genannt, entschärft nicht nur so manche Vollgriffigkeit, sie ändert auch komplizierte Tonarten: So tritt die Nr. 6 statt in Cis-dur nun im Gewand des leichter fassbaren C-dur auf. Diese vereinfachte Fassung des populären op. 39 kommt nun im G. Henle Verlag als Revision auf Grundlage der neuen Brahms-Gesamtausgabe heraus. / Piano
