The 'Romanian Folk Dances' undoubtedly rank amongst Bartók's most popular compositions. The earliest version is scored for piano (1915) and was published by Universal Edition in 1918. ln the preparation of this revised edition the last previous printed edition was compared with the available manuscript sources which include editions marked by Béla Bartók with corrections. His corrected copies of the violin-piano transcription (prepared by Zoltán Székely) as well as the orchestra arrangement were also considered.The major correction concerns metronome numbers. At various times since the work's first publicationthe composer slightly revised some of these tempi. ln the composer's lifetime the last printed editions of both violin-piano and piano versions produced during World War II bear corrections in his file copies the two being in agreement with each other as well as with the marked duration of each dance. The tempi found in these printed editions believed to be the composer's last word on the subject appear in this revised edition.' (Peter Bartók)

Par MUSTONEN OLLI / BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Paraphrase Of The 3 Movements From The Partita In E Major For Violin Solo/ Répertoire / Piano

Robert Schumann was fascinated by the Violin virtuoso Nicolò Paganini as were many composers of the time. When he was planning a Piano tutor in 1832/33 that was to include his own works as well as those byothers Schumann took a close look at Paganini’s virtuosic Caprices for Violin. Schumann’s own Caprices Op. 3 were composed in this spirit based very closely on Paganini’s original andfollowing their educational intention. Opus 10 on the other hand deals more freely with the model and is designed more with an effective performance in mind. Our Urtext edition of all of the PaganiniStudies is supplemented by the composer’s extensive explanation on their execution which he placed at the beginning of his Opus 3.

In early 1729 Bach became director of the so-called »Scottish Collegium Musician« a music organization of students and local citizens.

Valse-Slow waltzes enjoyed a special vogue in Parisian salons of the early twentieth century leading Debussy with a twinkle in his eye to produce his piano waltz ?La plus que lente? (?The Slower-than-Slow?). Parisian publisherDurand brought Debussy?s piano waltz issued in July 1910 to a wider public by publishing it that same year as a supplement to Le Figaro as well as in arrangements (by others) for violin and piano and for piano 4-hands. Debussyhimself produced a version for orchestra and in 1913 he even at a rather faster tempo recorded it on a piano roll for the Welte-Mignon company. This work headed ?molto rubato con morbidezza? (with much rubato morbidly) isnow available as a separate Henle Urtext. A preface extended from those in the anthology volumes HN 1194 and HN 404 will stimulate curiosity about this charming miniature waltz.

Music Minus One Piano-Schubert's seminal chamber composition the Piano Quintet in A major D667 commonly known as 'The Trout' or 'Die Forelle ' is certainly one of the greatest pieces of music ever penned. Its rich textures and lovely melody create an unforgettable musical experience. Its celebration of nature's beauty stems from a summer trip in the Austrian Alps which inspired the young Schubert to rework a song into this complex chamber-piece. Composed of five alternating movements 'The Trout' uses unique orchestration (substituting a double bass for the second violin) and gives special emphasis to the piano as well. But all the instruments take an equal role and this may also be a reason for thepiece's eternal popularity. 'The Trout' instantly brings to mind the calm serenity of the summer mountain air and its sparkling melody and gentle poignancy leave a particularly happy feeling in both player and listener. It is a joy-filled piece but at the same time is filled with a serene quality that makes it one of the most exhilarating pieces for any musician to play and one of the most important compositions for any musician to learn. This Music Minus One edition gives you that opportunity in the comfort of your own home. Contains a high-quality printed music score with informative liner notes and compact disc (with accompaniments only) voluminously indexed for ease of practice.
