by Beethoven (Opus 37, Opus 58) and Mozart (K466). Par SCHUMANN CLARA. Clara Schumann?s cadenzas to piano concertos by Beethoven (Opp. 37 and 58) and Mozart (K466) not only give a unique insight into her performing and composing style; they also throw light on her relationship with Johannes Brahms, whose cadenzas have considerable similarities to those of Schumann. This Urtext edition of the cadenzas includes a preface in which the renowned Canadian pianist Ludwig Sémerjian explores the interaction between Schumann and Brahms. The edition also marks the first publication of Clara Schumann?s early cadenzas for Mozart?s D minor Piano Concerto, previously only available in the manuscript in the Library of Congress in Washington DC. / Date parution : 2023-06-01/ Recueil / Piano

Par HENSELT ADOLPH. The composer and pedagogue Adolph von Henselt (1814?1889) can truly be considered one of the founding fathers of the Russian School of piano playing. He counted among his pupils Nicolai Sergeyvich Zverev, the teacher of Rachmaninoff and Scriabin. Rachmaninoff considered Henselt?s Etudes the equal of those by Liszt and Chopin for their great beauty. Henselt?s music was well-known in his time, and in the repertoire of the greatest virtuosos of the 19th century, including Clara Schumann (who premiered his F minor Concerto with Mendelssohn conducting), Franz Liszt, Hans von Bülow, Vladimir de Pachmann and Alexander Scriabin. The two sets of Etudes Opp. 2 and 5 were composed just before Henselt moved permanently to Russia and each set was originally published as two books of six études. This new Edition Peters Urtext edition collects each set in its own volume, together with, in volume 1, a selection of Henselt?s Exercices préparatoires and, in volume 2, two additional etudes. It is edited by Daniel Grimwood, one of the composer?s most highly regarded interpreters, whose recording of the complete Etudes is available from Edition Peters Sounds. This is the only available modern Urtext edition of these important piano works. / Date parution : 2023-06-01/ Etude / Piano

Par HENSELT ADOLPH. Following his acclaimed first recording of Adolph von Henselt's piano works for Edition Peters Sounds (EPS005), Daniel Grimwood now presents a unique recording of Henselt's complete Études coupled with the complete Préambules. Henselt can truly be considered one of the founding fathers of the Russian School. He counted among his pupils Nicolai Sergeyvich Zverev, the teacher of Rachmaninoff and Scriabin. Rachmaninoff considered Henselt's Études the equal of those by Liszt and Chopin for their great beauty. This double album imaginatively places the two sets of Études Op. 2 and Op. 5 alongside Henselt's improvisatory 'Préambules', one in each key, and also includes the Étude in A minor and the Étude Op. 13 No. 2 'La Gondola' together with the Étude 'Au Jardin' that Balakirev composed to honour Henselt's fiftieth anniversary in St Petersburg.

Par LEWIS GEORGE. Although his Signifying Riffs (1998) for percussion and strings is halfway there, String Quartet 1.5: Experiments in Living (2016) is the first proper string quartet by composer George Lewis. Borrowing its title from the writings of John Stuart Mill, Experiments in Living leads the performers through a series of idiosyncratic episodes featuring extremes of gesture and extended technique over the course of a single, 16-minute movement. Commissioned by the Fromm Foundation, String Quartet 1.5: Experiments in Living was composed for Spektral Quartet, who gave the premiere performance in October 2016 at Chicago\'s Harris Theater. This set of score and parts has been made available for sale by Edition Peters as part of the Peters Contemporary Chamber Series and includes full performance notes. Chopsticks and superball mallets are required to achieve some of the score\'s percussive playing techniques. / Date parution : 2022-09-07/ Répertoire / Quatuor à Cordes

Par MENDELSSOHN-BARTHOLDY FELIX. Felix Mendelssohn’s oratorio Elijah caused a sensation at its world première performance, sung in English, in Birmingham UK in August 1846. The huge forces marshalled for the occasion delighted the audience, who demanded no fewer than eight encores and loudly acclaimed the composer despite an injunction to observe the solemnity of the occasion by refraining from applause. Elijah has been an essential repertoire work for choral societies ever since. Published on the 175th anniversary of that famous premiere, Edition Peters is proud to present a new English-language Urtext edition of the vocal score containing the original libretto by William Bartholomew. Edited and with a preface by the highly respected musicologist Klaus Burmeister, the edition also includes a foreword ‘Mendelssohn and Birmingham’ by Simon Halsey, one of the world’s foremost choral directors (Chorus Director City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra Choruses; Artistic Director, Orfeó Català Choirs and Artistic Adviser, Palau de la Música, Barcelona; Choral Director, London Symphony Orchestra and Chorus; Artistic Director, Berliner Philharmoniker ‘Vokalhelden’ Programme). The edition complements and is designed to be used in conjunction with the existing German/English full score (EP11345) and orchestral parts. An associated German language vocal score is also available (EP11347). Edition Peters Vocal Scores are the choice of the world’s leading choirs and chorus masters. They are practical, reliable, high-quality editions containing expert piano reductions. / Date parution : 2022-07-20/ Répertoire / Solistes, Choeur et Orchestre

La série « The Complete Chopin ? A New Critical Edition » des éditions Peters est fermement établie comme l?édition scientifique actuelle la plus importante de la musique de Chopin et est un must pour tout pianiste averti. Les éditeurs de Chopin les plus éminents au monde, sous la direction de l?éditeur en chef John Rink, apportent leurs connaissances collectives inégalées pour donner au projet une autorité unique, en s'appuyant sur les recherches internationales les plus récentes. « The Complete Chopin » priorise les besoins du pianiste pratique et fournit un texte d'exécution magnifiquement présenté de chaque ?uvre, basé sur une source principale unique ainsi que des variantes de premier rang, ainsi que des commentaires critiques approfondis et une préface éclairante en anglais, français et allemand.

Edition Peters est maintenant ravi de présenter la nouvelle édition de Roy Howat des « Trois Nouvelles Études » de Chopin au sein de « The Complete Chopin ». Publiées à l'origine en 1840 dans la « Méthode des Méthodes » qui regroupait plusieurs compositeurs, les « Trois Nouvelles Études » sont les études les moins ouvertement virtuoses de Chopin, mais sans doute les plus sophistiquées de toutes en termes de formation de la sensibilité du pianiste au son, au rythme et à la texture. Debussy a dit un jour qu'il avait « usé ses doigts » en jouant la deuxième d'entre eux.
180 ans après, il semble extraordinaire que de nouveaux détails puissent encore être trouvés dans les pièces, mais l'édition de Howat en publie certains pour la première fois, notamment un certain nombre de variantes mélodiques dans la première Étude, ainsi que des notes dans la deuxième Étude que toutes les éditions précédentes avaient supprimées. Agissant littéralement comme un pivot dans la structure de la seconde Étude, ces notes authentiques ? restaurées ici avec sensibilité ? modifient notre perception de la texture et de l?harmonisation de la musique au moment où la pièce prend son envol sur l?une des cordes de modulation les plus époustouflantes de Chopin. Notre édition confirme également certains doigtés authentiques encore inconnus de la plupart des pianistes, comme le pouce fantaisiste qui « sautille » sur les touches noires à la fin de la troisième Étude.

Conformément à la procédure éditoriale de cette série, la présente édition est basée sur une source principale, à savoir le manuscrit de Chopin soigneusement préparé pour son ami Moscheles. De plus, certains changements que Chopin a introduits après la publication sont présentés ici comme des variantes, permettant aux pianistes de choisir des options de performance en connaissant sciemment leur origine.

Le concept de travail qui sous-tend la série « The Complete Chopin ? A New Critical Edition » :
« The Complete Chopin » est basé sur deux prémisses clés. Premièrement, il ne peut y avoir de version définitive des ?uvres de Chopin : les variantes font partie intégrante de la musique. Deuxièmement, effectuer une fusion de plusieurs sources ? produisant alors une version de la musique qui n'a jamais vraiment existé ? doit être évité. En conséquence, la procédure de travail des éditeurs consiste à identifier une seule source principale pour chaque ?uvre et à préparer une édition de cette source-là (qu?ils considèrent comme « la meilleure », même si elle ne peut être définitive). Dans le même temps, des variantes importantes provenant d'autres sources autorisées sont reproduites soit à côté soit, dans certains cas, dans le texte principal de la musique, dans les notes de bas de page ou dans le commentaire critique, permettant ainsi des comparaisons savantes et facilitant le choix de l'interprétation. / Partitions classique / Piano - instruments à clavier / Piano / EDITION PETERS
