Franz Joseph Haydn: Violin Concerto In G Major

One of Haydn's most attractive concertos from the mid seventeenth century the Concerto For Violin In C has only recently been re-discovered. In this charming concerto the soloist is accompanied by a String Orchestra a scoring which can be easily mastered by amateur ensembles. This Urtext edition is taken from the Henle Complete Edition of the Works of Joseph Haydn.

Violin Concerto In G major is considered to be the earliest of Joseph Haydn?s Violin concertos and was apparently written before he was taken into the service of the Esterházy family. It was firstpublished a century after the Austrian composer?s death in 1909 and was little known before. The concerto is lovely and ingratiating to the ear consisting of 3 movements (Allegro moderato Adagio andAllegro) with a total performance time of under 20 minutes. The unmatched intimacy and loveliness of the uniquely beautiful Adagio and the high spirited final movement with its charming Bagpipe imitation will putplayers and audiences alike in the best of moods from the outset. This Urtext edition provides you with a clear and accurate representation of the composer's original intentions. The Orchestra part is reduced to a Pianoaccompaniment and two copies of the Violin score which is identical to that of the Haydn-Gesamtausgabe are enclosed as separate inserts. A preface in German English and French by editor Günter Thomas is included as well.

Six Sonatas for Violin and Viola Hob. VI:1?6-The title ?Solo per il Violino? which Haydn gave these sonatas in his ?Entwurf-Katalog? (the handwritten catalogue he maintained of his own works) already gives us an indication: it is only the Violinwhich is treated as a solo instrument in these six sonatas the Viola has an accompanying role. Haydn might have written these ?soli? for himself; but they also might have been for Luigi Tomasini the ?first violinist? atEsterházy?s court. Today these duos enjoy great popularity particularly for teaching purposes. We are now proud to present the definitive Henle edition following the text in the Complete Edition of Haydn?s Works withthe addition of specially composed cadenzas.

Franz Joseph Haydn's Piano Trios Volume II for Violin Cello and Piano. Urtext edition score and parts.

Franz Joseph Haydn's Piano Trios Volume I for Violin Cello and Piano. Urtext edition score.

Following the first two volumes of Haydn’s String Trios in a study score (HN 9424 and 9425) we are now publishing the third and final one. Although Haydn is said to have composed about 60string trios most of them must be discounted for source-critical and stylistic reasons. The eighteen trios which definitely lay claim to authenticity were published in volumes 1 and 2. The third volume contains eight triosattributed to Haydn although his authorship cannot be proven. In addition to the Urtext edition (HN 628) these charming works are now also available in a handy score format. The musical text is that of the HaydnComplete Edition and it has been complemented by a new and informative preface by the Haydn scholar Sonja Gerlach.
