The Paganini Variations occupy a special place in Brahms' Piano oeuvre. They are true to their main title a work for study but at the same time (in contrast to for instance the 51 exercises) also suited for concert performances. Both aspects were important to Brahms himself too. When he planned the variations in 1862/63 he was still working on a loose collection of individual exercises which he used as finger practice when preparing for concerts. He eventually reworked this collection of exercises into a 'work' in its own right in 1865 repeatedly playing it in concert and publishing it in 1866. The Paganini Variationsare also interesting in their double function for contemporary pianists. Anyone studying them is able to marvellously develop his or her Piano technique while at the same time working on a very effective piece for concert events. For the first time all the sources known to us could be used for this new edition even two early manuscripts that were thought to be lost after 1945 and were rediscovered in St. Petersburg just a few years ago.

Franz Schubert's Impromptus and Moments musicaux are among the milestones of piano music and are a reuglar feature in music lessons and concert performances. This new edition brings all Impromptus and Moments musicaux together in one volume in a practice-focused manner. The musical text of the 'Impromptus' is based primarily on the composer's autographs as well as on a copy of the Witteczek-Spaun Collection which was very important to Schubert. As no autograph sources for the 'Moments musicaux' exist, the first and early editions of individual pieces were used as reference material. Due to this painstaking research these editions are very precise, not only with regard to musical details but also with fundamental issues like the position of repetition signs. With clear engraving and a user-friendly page layout, this edition also features new notes on interpretation by Robert D. Levin, based on notes from early performances.Pages : 144Niveau : moyen / Piano / Wiener Urtext Edition
