Bartók is regarded as one of the most important composers of the 20th century. He became famous both as a music teacher and as an ethnomusicologist. Being a trained pianist, his relation to the piano certainly was very special and is reflected in numerous piano works.
This comprehensive collection of selected piano works by Bartók is a rich source of his most beautiful pieces, including the two complete volumes For Children. / Classique / Partition /

Hohe Stimme / High Voice-As a continuation of the new Urtext edition of the Schubert lieder Walther Dürr has now edited volume five for high medium and low voices. Volumes 1 to 4 of this edition contain mainly lieder which Schubert himself saw into print (in his own choice and order) and in the fourth volume works from the last two years of his life are included. The lieder in volume 5 onwards are strictly presented in the order of Deutsch?s Thematic Catalogue which means that in principle they are arranged chronologically.The lieder in volume five were composed in the years 1811 to 1814. The first 'Hagars Klage' (D 5) dated 30 March 1811 is also his first complete surviving song. The firsteleven lieder are evidence of his early studies (1811 1813/14). During this period Schubert immersed himself in Johann Rudolf Zumsteeg?s ballads and lieder and wrote Italian arias during his composition lessons with Antonio Salieri. He also composed a single strophic song ('Klaglied' D 23) which the only one of these songs was published shortly after his death in November 1830 as op. 131 3. His apprentice work as it were was the major ballade 'Der Taucher' (D 77) which was composed between 1813 and roughly the beginning of 1815. Probably not by chance his first complete opera ('Des Teufels Lustschloss' D 84) was written at the same time. He also set fourteen poems by Friedrich von Matthisson exploring the principle of the strophic lied.- Excellent new engraving based on the 'New Schubert Edition'- Foreword by Walther Dürr discussing the history the works? compositionand transmission together with a list of sources for each song (Ger/Eng)- English translation of the song texts by Richard WigmoreContents:Hagars Klage D 5 / Leichenfantasie D 7 /Der Vatermörder D 10 / Klaglied op. post. 131 3 D 23 / Misero pargoletto D 42 (high voice only) / Totengräberlied D 44 / Die Schatten D 50 / Verklärung D 59 / Pensa che questo istante D 76 (medium and low voice only) /Der Taucher D 77 / Son fra l?onde D 78 (high voice only) /Adelaide D 95 / Trost.

Par SCHUMANN ROBERT. In 1925, Breitkopf & Härtel approached the young pianist Wilhelm Kempff to prepare Clara Schumann’s “Instructive Edition” of her husband’s works for the new engraving. “[…] The comparison with the autograph and the Urtext edition [First Schumann Complete Edition], the results of the Schumann research, the modern principles of notation – all of this would have to be taken into account in the new engraving and could lead to a significant improvement in the edition without compromising the spirit of editing by Clara Schumann. ” The present edition thus conveys the reading of one of the most important pianists of the twentieth century, which we make fully accessible intime for the 200th birthday of Clara Schumann. Contents: op. 1 Abegg-Variations in F major op. 2 Papillons op. 3 Studies on Caprices by Paganini op. 4 Intermezzi for piano op. 5 Impromptus on a Romance by Clara Wieck (1st version 1833) op. 5 Impromptus on a Theme by Clara Wieck (2nd version 1850) op. 6 Davidsbuendlertaenze (1st version 1837) op. 6 Davidsbuendlertaenze (2nd version 1850) op. 7 Toccata in C major op. 8 Allegro in B minor / Date parution : 2019-10-24/ Répertoire / Piano

Including the Transcendental Etudes Ed. Busoni-Liszt's reputation as perhaps the greatest pianist of all time is powerfully supported by his dazzling body of work for solo piano. The undiminished popularity of his etudes with pianists and audiences alike have made them among the most performed and recorded works for solo piano in the Romantic reportoire. The first volume Series 1 include many of Liszt's most inspired piano works and are edited by the great pianist composer and musical scholar Ferruccio Busoni for the Franz Liszt Society and published by Breitkopf and Hartel in Leipzig in 1910-11. Each set of Etudes is a highly successful work in its own terms and are all fiendishly difficult. The separate ' Mazeppa' isyet another working of one of the etudes from these sets. The individual etudes range dramatically in style from the delicate refinement of 'Feux Follets' to the startling bravura of 'Wilde Jagd' (both from Transcendental Etudes). Each will bring to pianists and their listeners a moving encounter with the genius of this towering musical personality

Déjà le premier volume de la très originale musique pour piano du fils cadet de Mozart fit dresser l?oreille des mélomanes.

Grâce à ce deuxième volume, nous sommes en mesure de compléter la collection par d?autres oeuvres de ce compositeur souvent sous-estimé. Voici ce qu?on pouvait lire à son époque au sujet de Franz Xaver Mozart: «Son jeu est limpide, précis, expressif, plein d?esprit et animé de sentiments»; contrairement aux «chevaliers du clavier», tels Moscheles ou Hummel, il ne plaçait pas la virtuosité au premier plan, ce qui rend ses oeuvres attractives pour le musicien amateur.

À côté d?un grand nombre de pièces isolées, le volume contient plusieurs cadences de F. X. Mozart écrites à l?attention des concertos de son célèbre père, et qui ont pu être éditées ici pour la première fois grâce aux autographes. / [Toutes les Oeuvres pour Piano, volume II] / Classique / Partition / Cartonné / Plats de carton /
