Among the Piano sonatas by Joseph Haydn the Sonata in E flat Hob. XVI:49 is probably the piece we know most about in terms of genesis. It is one of the few sonatas that have survived in Haydn's own handwriting and the correspondence between Haydn and his 18 years younger admirer Marianne von Genzinger refers to the work several times. That alone was reason enough for Christa Landon the renowned editor of Haydn's Piano sonatas in the Wiener Urtext Edition to present an edition of this work with a facsimile of Haydn's autograph many years ago. The new edition now publishes the facsimile with the musicaltext newly revised by Ulrich Leisinger.

When Christa Landon presented the first printed version of her edition of Joseph Haydn's Piano sonatas Haydn's sonata oeuvre was still overshadowed by the works of Mozart and Beethoven. Since then Haydn's sonatas have progressed from the teaching rooms to the concert halls and Landon's edition has played a crucial role in that process. Since the Haydn anniversary in 2009 this 'legendary' edition has been thoroughly revised for over the course of more than forty years new sources have come to light. Questions of authenticity have also been resolved not least because the editorial principles for 18th-century music havechanged considerably. The new edition is published in four volumes the content of each volume being compatible with the volumes of the previous edition. Volume 3 of the new edition comprises the 17 sonatas Hob. XVI:21–32 and Hob. XVI:35–39 contained in Vol. 2 of the previous Wiener Urtext edition including popular works for music lessons such as Hob. XVI:27 35 and 37. In the Notes on Interpretation Robert D. Levin explains important aspects of Haydn's performance practice and with the help of numerous examples shows possibilities to embellish the pauses frequently used by Haydn.

Ce sont les éditions Henle qui ont eu le privilège d'imprimer cette oeuvre. / Piano / Chanson En Séparée

Par HAYDN FRANZ JOSEF. Cette sonate de Haydn n’était jusqu’à présent pas disponible au catalogue Henle en tant qu’édition urtext séparée. Elle n’en fait pas moins partie des œuvres pour piano les plus célèbres de ce compositeur de référence. Elle fut écrite en 1789 – et fait donc partie des sonates tardives – pour l’éditeur de Leipzig Christoph Gottlob Breitkopf. Sa structure bipartite couvre tout le spectre du langage musical de Haydn, de l’improvisation pensive du premier mouvement à l’esprit pétulant et à l’humour du Finale. Haydn s’approprie ici le clavier dans toute son étendue et ses possibilités sonores. Le pianiste mondialement connu Piotr Anderszewski a réalisé les doigtés pour cette édition urtext Henle, et vous invite à la découverte de cette œuvre hors du commun./ Répertoire / Piano
