for Violin and Piano-Brahms had already announced his ?retirement? from composition when in the spring of 1894 he played chamber music with the cellist Robert Hausmann and the clarinettist Richard Mühlfeld. This encounter apparently renewed his enthusiasm for Mühlfeld?s much admired playing and inspired him to write two Clarinet sonatas in the summer of the same year.Brahms conceived an alternate version of the works for Viola from the beginning and already before the publication of these two versions he intended to do another one for Violin a version which was to require changes and was to result in an independent edition. While the Clarinet and Viola versions havedeveloped a rich performance tradition the Violin version is almost unknown. Yet for the Violin version the composer revised the original Clarinet part much more extensively than he did for the Viola version and also rewrote the Piano part to achieve a thoroughly convincing Violin and Piano idiom. This Bärenreiter edition aims to bring the neglected Violin Sonatas Op. 120 back into players? hands.An important part of this edition is the extensive preface. Firstly it informs about the sonatas? origins their compositional process pre-publication performances their publication history as well as early reception. Truly remarkable is the unique Performance Practice Commentary. Here the editors start from the premise that already a few decades after Brahms' death a widening gulf developed between the composer's expectations and the performance practices of the early 20th century. On the basis of manifold sources which include memoirs by pupils and chamber music partners treatises and essays early instructive editions and historical recordings the editors deal with key issues in understanding Brahms' notation. By a section-by-section analysis of rhythm and timing dynamics and accentuation dots and strokes slurring and non legato Piano pedalling and overholding Piano arpeggiation and dislocation string instrument fingering string instrument harmonics and vibrato the editors provide an indispensable assistance for a historically informed interpretation of the works.At the same time the edition offers an exciting and

The violin pupil can be accompanied either by the violin teacher (as a violin duet) or with piano. The optional alternative piano accompaniments are by Heidi Rolfe.'I can still remember the thrill I felt as a child of 8 when my violin teacher introduced me to my first concertino. Learning playing and eventually mastering the famous Küchler Concertino in D major made me feel privileged and grown-up as if I were joining a very special club.That was a long time ago yet for me concertinos still hold a distinctive place in the teaching repertoire. Having now taught the violin for the last thirty years and seen how happily my pupils respond to learningduets - that distinctive sense of enjoyment at playing with an adult the improvement of intonation and tone production the liveliness of the lesson - I have composed three new concertinos inspired by the duet form.Taking three great keys for the violin - G D and A minor I have endeavoured to combine emotionally engaging and technically educational music in the 'Olden Style'. Uniquely I have written a second violin part for the teacher to play alongside their pupil's part and there is also a piano accompaniment for use alternatively in concert settings.I very much hope that these concertinos prove as popular and as helpful as the series of duets in my previously published books Sounds of a Rainbow and that they ignite that sense of wonderment and purpose I experienced while playing the Kuchler all those years ago.'Nigel Goldberg

This work was composed in 1886 and was dedicated to the Belgian violinist and composer Eugène Ysaÿe.Franck’s correspondenceproves that he was directly involved in the printing of the sonata. Consequently Barenreiter's scholarly performing edition draws mainly on the first edition of the separate Violin part. For the Piano part the first edition of the version for Violoncello and Piano which appeared during Franck

by Hubay and Sarasate for Violin and Piano. Par SARASATE PABLO DE / HUBAY JENO. Georges Bizet\'s opera Carmen had its first performance in Paris in 1875. In the audience was the 17-year-old Hungarian violin virtuoso and budding composer Jenö Hubay. After the performance Hubay started writing his Carmen Fantasy from memory. The following season for his debut recital in Paris, he included his newly created composition. It is a lyrical work of great beauty and brilliance. Hubay combined his career of a concertizing virtuoso, composer and violin pedagogue. At the Royal Conservatory in Brussels he became the successor of Vieuxtemps and Wieniawski. Later, Franz Liszt invited Hubay to lead the violin department in the newly created Budapest Music Academy. He created the world-renowned Hungarian school of violin playing. His student, Franz von Vecsey, recorded theCarmen Fantasy in 1904 at age 11! His other students included Joseph Szigeti, Zoltán Szekely, Sándor Végh, Endre Gertler, György Garay and many more. Hubay was a very active composer, creating over 120 works including operas, ballets, concertos, songs and instrumental compositions. Pablo de Sarasate wrote his Carmen Fantasy in 1882. It is a composition of drama and passion, written with his unparalleled brilliance for violin writing. This work has remained in the standard repertory, on programs of virtuoso soloists, as well as a required work for major competitions. / Date parution : 2021-12-09/ Recueil / Violon et Piano

Violin Sonatas Volume II-Volume II of Ludwig van Beethoven’s Sonatas for Piano and Violin includes Violin sonatas No. 6-10 - Beethoven wrote 10 sonatas for Violin and Piano in total (No. 1-5 can be found inVolume I of this edition). Out of these 5 sonatas Violin Sonata No. 9 (commonly known as the ‘Kreutzer Sonata’) is the most widely known because of its demanding Violin part unusual length of slightlyless than 40 minutes (with the other four averaging at ca. 23 minutes) and emotional scope - while the first movement is predominantly furious the second is meditative and the third joyous and exuberant. This Urtextedition provides you with a clear and accurate representation of the composer's original intentions. Two copies of the Violin score are included as separate inserts as well as a preface in German English and French.

for Violin and Piano-Following the publication of the Valse-Scherzo we continue Henle's edition of Tchaikovsky?s complete works for violin and piano with the enchanting Sérénade mélancolique op. 26. This was Tchaikovsky?s first concertante work forviolin the beginning of a path that was to lead to his Violin Concerto three years later. He composed the Sérénade mélancolique in 1875 for violinist Leopold Auer originally for violin and orchestra but later also in a versionfor violin and piano. Since the autograph sources are lost this Henle edition is based on the Russian first editions which even in Tchaikovsky?s lifetime were issued in a number of revised versions. The editor RussianTchaikovsky scholar Alexander Komarov brings exemplary clarity to the confused state of the sources while Ingolf Turban unlocks the notation of the violin part with his accomplished fingerings and bowings.

Wunderkind Sonatas I K. 6-9 for Piano and Violin-At the time Mozart?s genius recognised at an early age could only be explained as being God-given. Wolfgang Amadeus and his sister Maria Anna older by five years were admired as being 'Wunderkinder' (prodigies) on theirtravels through Western Europe between 1763 and 1766. The piano sonatas ?with a violin accompaniment? K. 6 9 were composed in Paris. It is wonderfully fresh and varied music. The piano is joined by a violin that adds colour butnot as an equal partner unlike in the later great violin sonatas (see HN 77 80). This music is not only ideally suitable for piano and violin teaching purposes but will also allow musicians who already know ?everything? todiscover some treasures.With marked and unmarked string parts

In E-flat major Op.102. Par SAINT-SAENS CAMILLE. The second half of the 19th century represented something of a ?Golden Age? of the violin sonata in France: influential violin sonatas such as those by Franck, Fauré and Saint-Saëns were among the successful works of this genre, inspiring many further compositions. Saint-Saëns? Violin Sonata No.2 was written in 1896 during a stay of several months by the composer in Egypt: he began the main themes of all four movements as well as the canonic trio in Luxor and Aswan. The sonata was then completed on the Nile journey back to Cairo. That same year the sonata was premiered by Saint-Saëns and Pablo Sarasate in a concert celebrating the composer?s fiftieth stage anniversary. Astoundingly, he had first appeared on stage when he was only ten years old. This performing edition edited by Fabien Guilloux and François de Médicis is based on ?Saint-Saëns ? ?uvres instrumentales complètes?, volume III/4. It reflects the most up-to-date state of research on this work which the edition presents in a spacious engraving. - With a detailed Foreword (Fr/Eng/Ger) on the genesis and performance history - Performing edition based on the Urtext of the ?Saint-Saëns ? ?uvres instrumentales complètes? - Optimum layout in the violin part and piano score / Date parution : 2022-11-08/ Répertoire / Violon et Piano

Ravel, Maurice
Sonata / Berceuse sur le nom de Fauré for Violin and Piano
- New scholarly-critical edition of Ravel?s famous sonata
- First scholarly-critical edition of the ?Berceuse sur le nom de Fauré?
- Foreword on the historical context and performance practice issues (Eng/Ger) as well as a Critical Commentary (Eng)
Ravel worked on his Sonata for Violin and Piano for four years (1923?1927) which was longer than he took for any other composition. According to the composer, the reason for his difficulties was the ?fundamental incompatibility? of these two instruments. However, the interplay between two quite different partners is precisely what makes this sonata so charming. The violin and piano are independent, sometimes playing alongside each other and at other times with each other: here in a lyrical Allegretto, there in a jazz-inspired second movement, finally in a ?perpetuum mobile? finale.
This new edition edited by Douglas Woodfull-Harris corrects numerous inconsistencies of earlier editions. It also includes the ?Berceuse sur le nom de Fauré? which is available for the first time in a scholarly-critical Urtext edition. This lullaby for violin and piano consists of variations on a theme derived from the letters of Fauré?s name. / Partitions classique / Cordes / Violon / BARENREITER
