Versions 1913 and 1931-L?une des plus importantes et significatives pages pour piano de Rachmaninov la Sonate en si bémol mineur est enfin disponible dans une édition Urtext digne de la partition et des problèmes éditoriaux qu?elle pose. Presque vingt ans après l?avoir écrite et publiée le compositeur la trouvait trop longue et trop dense d?écriture et il fit de nombreuses coupures et «allégements» qui continuent aujourd?hui d?être l?objet de critiques de la part des pianistes. Si bien que c?est la plupart du temps la première version qui est jouée ou un mélange des deux versions comme se le permettait par exemple Vladimir Horowitz avec l?autorisation de Rachmaninov. L?édition Henleexploite aussi le manuscrit autographe conservé aux Archives Glinka à Moscou. Comme pour toutes les ?uvres pour piano de Rachmaninov publiées chez Henle les doigtés sont de Marc-André Hamelin l?un des pianistes les plus remarquables de notre époque.

Dramatic and lyrical by turns this work displays Rachmaninov's keyboard characteristics: intense Russian flavor rich and bold sonorities compelling rhythmic drive and brilliant virtuosity. Rachmaninov shows here a very fine grasp of the medium of two pianos his haunting sense of melody and his richly harmonic and rhythmic foundation. Altogether it ranks as a very important contribution to two-piano literature. Arranged for 2 Pianos 4 Hands this edition includes two complete copies of the work.

During his time Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto No.4 was continually dogged by criticism that it was work desperately seeking a style. Critics said the Fourth did not seem know where it was coming from or knew which way it was going. Concert goers who were swept away by the lyrical beauty of the Second and storming brilliance of the Third were expecting Rachmaninov's Fourth Concerto to have that similar emotional impact. Nevertheless there is a wonderful rhythmic tautness to this outstanding piece. The finale contains some of the Fourth's most attractive music. This particular work is a reduction for 2 pianos where the music's potency isn't compromised by it's lack ofan orchestra.

Despite his young age (born in 1991), the Russian pianist Vyacheslav Gryaznov has already written quite an impressive number of transcriptions for piano solo or chamber music ensembles, among them many arrangements of chamber music and orchestral works by Russian composers like Borodin, Tchaikovsky or Rakhmaninov. However, Gryaznov also studies intensively the music from J. S. Bach, Mahler and Debussy to Leonard Bernstein and makes it come alive on the piano.The edition Piano Transcriptions for piano solo contains nine of his transcriptions: from Glinka's Valse-Fantaisie to the Waltz of the Flowers from Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite or the famous Adagietto from Mahler's Fifth Symphony. An attractive way to rediscover these popular major works on the piano for oneself! / Piano

The Boosey Masterworks Library is a truly fantastic collection of popular works from the orchestral repertoire presented in clearly notated and meticulously documented scores.This volume presents the full orchestral score of Rachmainov’s first two piano concertos which remain ever popular in the concert pianist’s repertoire the second piano concerto even more so. The first two piano concertos frame a prolonged period of self-examination and doubt in Rachmaninov’s life his earlier works were not received with great acclaim. However his resurgence as a composer on the international concert platform was brought about by his composition of thePiano Concerto No.2 in C Minor Op.18 which since its first performance remains one of the most important and popular works in the repertoire. This full orchestral score is a wonderful resource for study and perusal purposes and is clearly presented making it easy to read and follow.Note that the revised version (written in 1917) of the first piano concerto is that which is presented in this score.

At the age of 20, having recently graduated from the Moscow Conservatory, Rachmaninoff wrote his Morceaux de Salon, Op. 10, in 1893, and 3 years later, the six Moments Musicaux. These beautiful works display a simple, often Chopinesque style of romanticism while bearing the unmistakable Russian flavor the composer captured in all his work. This is the 1989 Belwin-Mills edition.
