French Romantic Repertoire introduces the pianist to a fascinating world of charm and sophistication; a music distinguished by its balance of logic and clarity with emotion. Here piano works of France's great masters including Debussy Delibes Massenet Franck and Saint-Saëns are brought together with lesser-known composers such as Godard Alkan and Chausson. Meticulously selected and edited these books range from intermediate to moderately difficult. Stephen Coombs has established an enviable reputation as a player of romantic piano music and his numerous recordings for Hyperion records have been met with terrific acclaim.

French composer, Emile Pessard (1843-1917) studied at the Paris Conservatoire where he won first prize for harmony and the 1866 Prix de Rome. Andalouse contributes to his significant catalogue of compositions. As well as composing, Pessard taught a wealth of prolific students, including Maurice Ravel and Jacques Ibert. Extracted from his Opus 20, Andalouse for Flute and Piano accompaniment displays typical French romantic features, including semiquaver flourishes, use of a wide tessitura and syncopated rhythms. For all aspiring flautists seeking alternative repertoire, Pessard's Andalouse ensures an exciting performance..

'Romantic Piano Emotions' ist für Jugendliche und Erwachsene gedacht, die gerne emotionale und gefühlvoll-romantische Klaviermusik spielen. Die 25 mittelleichten bis leicht anspruchsvollen Stücke besitzen klare harmonische Strukturen und fantasievolle, leicht zu merkende Melodien. Die Kompositionen treffen sich musikalisch in der Mitte zwischen 'klassisch' und 'modern' und bereichern einerseits das klassische Repertoire durch moderne Klänge und Rhythmen, andererseits werden die technisch-pianistischen Fähigkeiten ausgebaut, die eine vielseitige Anwendung beim Spielen anspruchsvollerer Klaviermusik anderer Stilrichtungen finden. Das Erarbeiten der Klavierstücke bringt dem fortgeschrittenen Anfänger verschiedene technische Aufgaben wie Akkordspiel, leichte Zweistimmigkeit bzw. Melodie und Begleitung mit der rechten Hand gleichzeitig, Terz-Doppelgriffe, Tonleiter- und Arpeggiopassagen grundlegend näher. Besondere Aufmerksamkeit gilt der linken Hand, die unterschiedliche Begleitmuster beherrschen soll oder auch als melodieführende Hand hervortritt. Alle Stücke sind mit einem ausführlichen Fingersatz versehen, welcher Wiedereinsteigern und Autodidakten das Spiel erleichtert. 'Romantic Piano Emotions' ist für den allgemeinen Klavierunterricht, zum Selbststudium und für das entspannte häusliche Musizieren bestens geeignet. Freude und Spaß am Spielen stehen dabei im Vordergrund.

Schumann's horn sonatas were composed in 1936/37. Considering the slim repertoire offered horn players from this period, it is more than surprising that these two masterpieces could have slumbered for so long. Both sonatas are similar in structure, with op. 118 being one Schumann's few three-movement sonatas. The first movements of the pieces sparkle with melancholically lyrical melodies, whereas passages strongly marked rhythmically, variously shape the two outer movements. Virtuoso moments can be found, respectively, in the final movements, bringing the works to a brilliant close. The horn parts predominantly range within the full, sonorous middle register, where occasional outbursts up to the notated a flat'' are also not lacking. The clever handling of the balance of sounds, the possibilities on the early valve horn as well as the inner interweaving of themes differentiating horn and piano make the sonatas an exceedingly vivid testimony to Schumann's mature compositional art.Schumann's horn sonatas are a crucial enhancement to each horn player's repertoire.
