2 Duets. Par SMETANA BEDRICH. Dans un style plus facile, destinées plutôt à son utilisation à la maison que pour des concerts, c'est comment Bedrich Smetana décrit ses deux ' duos ' pour violon et piano Aus der Heimat, écrits ' dans un style vraiment national, quoiqu'avec des airs de mon propre mélodique. Ces pièces sont deux des paramètres peu expressifs et aussi violinistically enrichissantes, qui le musicien tchèque déjà sourd composé pour un patron noble en 1880. La présente édition nouvelle met l'arrangement du né à Prague violoniste et violon professeur Hans Sitt, qui condensés de la forme des ' duos ' et les rend plus facile à la technique de jeu, juste à côté de la version originale de Smetana. N'importe que ce soit dans la version originale ou arrangement, les deux miniatures mélodieuse valent certainement jouer.

Bedrich Smetana (1824?1884) only began to devote himself intensively to the project of an original opera in Czech at the age of 38. The libretto of ?The Bartered Bride?, the second of Smetana?s nine operas, was written for Smetana by the poet and journalist Karel Sabina. The subject chosen for the comic opera was the story of a pair of lovers in the countryside whose relationship is disapproved of by their parents. It is set during the festival at a village church anniversary.

The final form of the work, which soon came to be regarded as a national opera, was preceded by a relatively difficult genesis.

The opera was written between 1863 and 1865 and was premiered on 30 May 1866 at the Provisional Theatre in Prague, where the composer?s last version of the work was also performed in 1870.

This vocal score contains the musical text of the critical edition of Smetana?s own vocal score.

The newly-set edition contains both Czech and German vocal texts; the German singing translation is by Kurt Honolka.

The newly-set and revised performance material for the entire opera, based on the critical edition by Frantisek Bartos, is available on hire. / [La Fiancée vendue] / Classique / Partition /

The polka by Bedrich Smetana (1824 1884) is a typically related form of composition as it is with the polonaise and mazurka by chopin or a waltz by the family Strauß. The artistic stylisation of the polka has kept the composer busy since his...

Für Klavier-Smetana?s piano sketch Macbeth also known as Macbeth and the Witches after William Shakespeare?s tragedy originated in 1859 while the composer was living in Sweden. Some scholars believe that it was meant to be scored for full orchestra. The work?s dark and gloomy mood is connected with the death of Smetana?s wife Katharina on 19 April 1859.Macbeth only appeared in print posthumously in 1912. It soon entered the piano repertoire and in the course of the 20th century it was scored for orchestra by Otakar Jeremiá? and for piano and orchestra by Jarmil Burghauser. Our Urtext edition proceeds from the only surviving source Smetana?s pencil sketch.

La réputation du compositeur Bohême Zdenek Fibich (1850-1900) a toujours été quelque peu éclipsée par celle de Bedrich Smetana et Antonín Dvorák. C'est fort dommage, pour Fibich, bien qu'il est mort jeune, apporté une contribution tout aussi importante à l'émergent styl national tchèque avec son large éventail de compositions. Après le début des leçons de piano avec sa mère comme son premier maître, le garçon ensuite à l'école de musique à Prague, puis au Conservatoire de Leipzig, où il apprend son métier comme compositeur. Il passe quelques mois enseignement de piano à Paris et poursuit ses études avec Vinzenz Lachner à Mannheim. Prague a finalement pour devenir le centre d'activités musicales du Fibich : comme son rêve d'un poste au Conservatoire est resté déçus, son emploi principal était donner des leçons de musique privée et comme un compositeur Zdenek Fibich a écrit des oeuvres de nombreux genres musicaux : chant et musique de chambre, pièces pour piano et oeuvres orchestrales, opéras, musique de scène et mélodrames, récitals littéraires avec orc... / Violon Et Piano
