In autumn 1827 Schubert composed eight 'Impromptus' for publication as a complete collection by Haslinger in Vienna. When the plan fell through Schubert offered his 'Impromptus' to Schott as pieces which 'could be issued individually or all four together'. The name of the works probably originated from the publisher Haslinger and Schubert also used it for his collection published later as op. posth. 142. The lyrical-romantic works are suitable for advanced piano students and have the character of sonata movements. Robert Schumann who regarded them as parts of a four-movement sonata drew attention to the second collection published by Diabelli in 1839 in hisreview.For the first time this scholarly-critical Urtext edition presents the musical text of the 'New Schubert Edition' in new engraving and with optimum page-turns.

Schubert cycle de la dernière chanson en UrtextAprès la mort de Schubert en 1828, son frère Ferdinand transmis treize chansons basées sur des textes de Ludwig Rellstab et Heinrich Heine à la Haslinger éditeur. Schubert avait composé seulement les peu de temps avant sa mort, en Août 1828.Au cours de sa durée de vie de Schubert effectivement voulu publier les deux groupes de Lieder séparément. Toutefois, les chansons de Heine et Rellstab sont en effet étroitement liés. Haslinger ajouté quatorzième Lied, 'Die Taubenpost', basée sur un texte de Johann Gabriel Seidl, que Schubert avait composé un mois avant sa mort, mais qui en aucun cas met à nu toute relation à l'Rellstab et Heine Lieder.Cette collection a été publié à titre posthume par Haslinger au début de mai 1829, et il a été nommé 'Schwanengesang' - traditionnellement le terme donné à la dernière oeuvre d'un artiste avant sa mort.- Basé sur le Urtext de la 'Nouvelle édition Schubert'- Avant-propos par Walther Dürr sur la genèse et l'histoire des oeuvres etles sources disponibles pour chaque individu Lied (Ger / Eng)- Traductions en anglais des textes de Richard Wigmore Lied / Voix Moyenne(s) Et Piano

Schubert during this period an assistant teacher at his father?s school orientated himself towards the so-called ?Berliner Liederschule? particularly the songs of Johann Friedrich Reichardt.

Introduktion und Variationen D802. Par SCHUBERT FRANZ. Originally for flute and piano, Schubert's reworking of 'Trockne Blumen' - the eighteenth song in his song cycle Die schöne Müllerin - is here adapted for the violin. It was quite common in Schubert's own time for composers to write works 'for flute or violin' and in keeping with this practice, violinist Jacqueline Ross has prepared this edition, along with notes on the musical background and critical commentary on the violin editing. Her research into 18th and early 19th century performance practice has been widely recognised and has influenced her recordings of baroque and classical repertoire. This includes the Naxos release of the complete works of Schubert, recorded on historical instruments, in which this adaptation of 'Trockne Blumen' is featured. Violinists will welcome this adaptation intended primarily for performers, as a vibrant and substantial addition to the repertoire. o Originally for flute and piano, Schubert's reworking of 'Trockne Blumen', the eighteenth song in his song cycle 'Die schöne Müllerin', is here adapted for the violin by Jacqueline Ross o Notes on the musical background and critical commentary on the violin editing are included o A vibrant and substantial addition to the repertoire/ Répertoire / Violon et Piano

Franzc Schubert (1797-1828) fait partie des quatre ou cinq compositeurs les plus connus. Sait-on qu'il mourut à trente et un ans sans n'avoir rien, ou presque, entendu des neuf cent dix-huit pièces qu'il écrivit? On connaît sa musique de chambre, ses neuf symphonies, quelques-unes de ses sept messes. Mais combien de ses dix-sept opéras? Pourquoi Schubert s'obstina-t-il malgré l'insuccès? Que s'est-il passé? Malchance? Maladresse? Indifférence de l'?uvre elle-même? Et, paradoxalement, il fut le premier compositeur à vivre exclusivement de son écriture. Le Mystère Schubert est une approche littéraire d'une ?uvre, d'une vie et de ce qui les unit : la création. Schubert laisse une interrogation qui nous poursuit parce qu'elle nous construit. Son mystère dresse sans complaisance la figure de l'artiste d'aujourd'hui où la gratuité l'emporte sur une quête de gloire. Schubert s'en étonnait lui-même en demandant à son frère : " N'aurais-je pas moi non plus une place sur celte terre? " C'était quelques instants avant sa mort.

Following the newly engraved publications of Schubert?s ?Moments Musicaux? (BA 9647) and ?Impromptus? (BA 9648), the composer?s late piano works are now to be published in a scholarly-critical Urtext edition that will meet the demands of today?s performers. Schubert?s popular ?Ungarische Melodie? D 817, inspired by gypsy melodies, was composed in 1824; his ?Allegretto in C minor? D 915 was written in the spring of 1827; a little later, at the latest in 1828, he also wrote his ?Drei Klavierstücke? D 94, which are closely related in form to his ?Moments Musicaux?.'

Franz Schubert’s popular German Mass of 1827 follows in the footsteps of Michael Haydn’s work Deutsches Hochamt by turning to a German translation of the Ordinary mass. Its homophonic texture and largely syllabic setting of the words make it more accessible to lay choruses than Schubert’s masses in Latin an advantage reinforced by its diatonic melodic writing and constantly slow tempos.The present edition reproduces the Urtext from the New Schubert Edition and presents the definitive second version for chorus and wind instruments. Since the piano reduction basically follows the choral lines and Schubert’s original organ part however the Mass can also be performedwith organ accompaniment.Urtext from the New Schubert EditionStandard work in the church music repertoireCan be accompanied by organ or wind instrumentsNo vocal soloists necessary

Despite the pressures of his teaching position Franz Schubert created a particularly large number of works in the year 1815. Besides around 140 new Lieder he composed the second and third symphonies four stage works the first important compositions for piano the String Quartet in G minor (D 173) and two Masses: the Mass in G major (D 167) and the Mass in B-flat major the object of this edition. Considering that the Mass in F major (D 105) was written from May to July 1814 and the Mass in C major (D 452) during June and July 1816 we can see that Schubert composed four of the six complete Mass settings which have survived from his hand within the short span of twoyears.The Mass was presumably first performed in Lichtental shortly after its completion. The fact that some partly autographic parts the organ part three soprano and three alto parts were made around 1820 seems to point to a second performance. And from Schubert’s brother Ferdinand we know that the Mass was performed a third time at the parish church in Hainburg at the beginning of October 1824 since Ferdinand played the organ on that occasion. The Mass was first issued in 1837 as Opus 141 by the Viennese publisher Tobias Haslinger.- Urtext of the New Schubert Edition- Full score performance material (BA5621) and vocal score (BA5621-90) available for sale
