George Frideric Handel, Johan Halvorsen: Passacaglia - Duo for Violin and Viola

Johannes Brahms a montré un intérêt dans la musique des époques antérieures à un âge précoce. Dans ce contexte, il est également venu sur le thème de la variation de George Frideric Handel qui, à son tour, lui a inspiré un travail considérable de variations pour le piano. La nouvelle édition de la Wiener Urtext Edition est basé sur une comparaison minutieuse des autographes, première édition et les copies personnelles. Autographe copie de Brahms fut un correctif essentiels- corrections ultérieures du compositeur dans la copie personnelle de Max Kalbeck ont été prises en compte. Les variations de tempo et les indications d'expression de la première version du manuscrit de Brahms jusqu'à ce que la première édition permettent à des conclusions au sujet des idées d'interprétation du compositeur- elles sont analysées dans les notes d'interprétation. La gravure clair et facilement lisible rend cette édition une base pratique pour l'étude de ce chef-d'oeuvre. / Piano

Johannes Brahms showed an interest in the music of previous epochs at an early age. In this context he also came across the variation theme of George Frideric Handel which in turn inspired him to write an extensive work of variations for the Piano. The new edition of the Wiener Urtext Edition is based on a meticulous comparison of autographs first edition and personal copies. Brahms' autograph copy served as an essential corrective; subsequent corrections of the composer in the personal copy of Max Kalbeck were taken into account as well. Changes in tempo and indications of expression of Brahms' first version until the first edition allowconclusions about the composer's interpretational ideas; they are analysed in the notes of interpretation. The clear and readily legible notation makes this edition a convenient basis for studying this masterpiece.

Opera in three acts-“Almira” Handel’s first opera was well received when premiered in 1705 at the Theater am Gänsemarkt in Hamburg. The director was Reinhard Keiser who remarkably had himself already set Friedrich Christian Feustking’s text to music. The role of Fernando was sung by Johann Mattheson. The translation used by Handel leaves several Italian arias in their original language resulting in a delightful mixture of German and Italian.The opera which after sundry entangled romances ends in the wedding of three couples is characterised by exuberant scenes: the procession at Almira’scrowning ceremony a duel a prison scene and a masked-ball involving the three continents Europe Africa and Asia.The vocal score to “Almira” by George Frideric Handel brings about a small sensation: Whilst conducting a reenactment of this work in 1732 Georg Philipp Telemann removed the Aria no. 28 “Ingrato spietato” from his conducting score. Since then this aria has been deemed lost. Due to necessity only the edited vocal text devoid of any music was presented in the 1994 volume of the “Halle Handel Edition”.Thanks to a recently discovered contemporary manuscript copy from the beginning of the 18th century which was found in the music library of the Mariengymnasium in Jever this aria has now been made available to performers for the first time in this new vocal score edition. Previous to this the corresponding pages could only be seen as a facsimile in an article of the “Göttinger Händel-Beiträge”.Now the aria can be performed again. Furthermore with the help of this new source missing measures in the basso continuo which had initially been completed by the editor of the “Halle Handel Edition” volume could be reconstructed from the basso continuo part of the Bellante aria “Ich brenne zwar” (no. 71).- Urtext edition based on the “Halle Handel Edition”- Original German and Italian text with a German translation of the Italian arias
