Par SCHNEIDER FRIEDRICH. Friedrich Schneider is known today above all for his extensive oeuvre in the area of the oratorio. No less important, however, in addition to his symphonic work, is his group of works for piano and/or chamber music. His cello sonata in F major, with all four movements large in scale, was probably composed in 1831 for the daughter of the Cologne music patron, Dr. Erich Heinrich Verkenius. With its expressiveness, monumental structure, and post-Beethovenian sensuality, this sonata already seriously anticipates Romanticism. Our edition offers two solo parts: an unmarked original text as well as a version with fingerings and bowings by the Leipzig based cellist Jürnjakob Timm./ Répertoire / Violoncelle et Piano

Qui veut découvrir le versant doux et légèrement élégiaque de Mozart gagnera à jouer le premier mouvement de cette Sonate pour piano K. 570 un peu moins connue. De même le deuxième mouvement associe une paisible sonorité de cor à une triste mélodie en Ut mineur. Ce n?est que dans le final enjoué en Si bémol majeur («Allegretto» ? alla breve) que l?atmosphère vire à la gaieté ? quoique retenue. Curieusement cette sonate fut tout d?abord publiée (à titre posthume en 1796) comme Sonate pour violon une version qui présente d?ailleurs un certain charme. Si l?on ne possédait pas le manuscrit autographe de la sonate pour piano (de manière toutefois fragmentaire) ainsi qu?unsignalement dans le catalogue autographe des ?uvres (Vienne février 1789: «une sonate pour piano seul») on pourrait penser que cette Sonate en Si bémol majeur existerait sous forme de deux versions jumelles (avec et sans accompagnement de violon).

Romance in F major for Violoncello and Orchestra-Just a few months after completing his Cello Sonata op. 6 Strauss composed another work for this instrument: a Romance for cello and orchestra which remained unpublished during his lifetime. According to the autograph manuscript the composition was finished on June 27 1883 and Strauss also prepared the piano reduction himself. The Romance is regarded as one of Strauss??? most mature youthful works though it was long overshadowed by the cello sonata despite several quite successful performances given by the then-famous principal cellist of the Munich Court Orchestra Hanu? Wihan. Only since the posthumous first edition of 1986 has the music world been rediscoveringthis striking work which now also appears in a Henle Urtext edition.
