Facsimile Of The Draft Score and Paul Sacher'S Annotated Full Score Copy-Béla Bartók's Sonata for Two Pianos and Percussion composed in summer 1937 on a commission from Paul Sacher and premièred in Basel in January 1938 is incontestably one of the supreme creations of modern music. This publication with introductory essays by Felix Meyer Robert W. Wason Lászlo Vikárius and Wolfgang Rathert presents two major handwritten sources for this work from the holdings of the Paul Sacher Foundation: the draft score which offers a fascinating glimpse into the sonata's genesis and a 'whiteprint' of the fair copy which contains additions from Bartók and differs substantially from the definitiveversion at the end of the development section in movement 1. The volume also contains on an enclosed CD the radio recording of 1940 with Bartók and his wife Ditta Pásztory on the piano parts as well as a new recording of the sonata in its 'original' form played by the Bugallo-Williams Piano Duo with percussionists Matthias Würsch and Christian Dierstein.

Par ZAVARO PASCAL. Les musiciens sont répartis en deux groupes égaux, constitués de deux à plusieurs dizaines de personnes. Ces deux groupes se font face sur la scène. Il est possible d'adopter un costume ou un maquillage différents pour chaque groupe. Au milieu se tiendra le chef d'orchestre, dos au public, comme un arbitre et un officiant. Les mouvements s'enchaînent sans interruption. Tous les sons émis seront 'pleins' et homogènes. Ainsi l'on doit se préparer individuellement et collectivement pour développer cette qualité sonore. Il n'y a pas de chant dans cette ?uvre. Les notes dans les portées décrivent les intonations relatives d'un langage parlé, ou bien les différents modes de jeux vocaux, percussifs ou gestuels. Les silences seront habités par une attitude concentrée, attentive. Comme si, par moments, la Lune parlait. Dans le mouvement Toucher, chaque éxécutant frappe sur son propre corps, aux endroits indiqués sur la partition. Dans Goûter, les musiciens privilégient les bruits de bouche, de langue, de déglutition. Les onomatopées du texte doivent être interprètées dans ce sens. Regarder est en grande partie silencieux, les musiciens se comportent individuellement comme des mimes ou des acteurs de cinéma muet, en exagérant les gestes et attitudes. Dans Humer, les musiciens privilégient les bruits de respiration, souffles et sonorités aériennes. Les onomatopées du texte doivent être interprètées dans ce sens. Dans Écouter, les musiciens adopteront individuellement un jeu de scène montrant au public une inquiétude et une tension d'écoute vers les cintres, en direction de la Lune, écoutant et regardant sans cesse vers le haut de la scène. C'est aussi un 'pot-pourri', récapitulant des modes de jeux précédents. Pascal Zavaro / Date parution : 2023-06-01/ Répertoire / Percussion
