28 Easy Piano Pieces for Children Instrumentation : piano Description : The third volume in the 'Piano Pictures' series is entirely dedicated to the question of whether there really are jokes and fun in music and if so, what it actually is that we laugh about Sometimes it is the title of the piece that makes us laugh, as in 'Two Funny Aunties Quarrelling' (Khatchaturian). Or the fun is hidden in the movements of the music: the sudden alternations between 'funny' and 'sad' of 'Clowns' (Heller and Kabalevski), acrobatic jumps in 'Musette' or interesting movements like the glissando being likened to the buttering of a piece of bread (Mozart). And even music-making itself can be fun, e.g. the jump-like crossing of the hands in 'Flohwalzer' or playing at breakneck speed. Contenu : Anonymus: Musette D major - F. Couperin: Harlequin - L.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's horn concertos: the Mozart expert Henrik Wiese edits the central work genre of Viennese classicism according to the current status of international Mozart research. Mozart wrote the Horn Concerto K. 417 - like the other works of this genre as well - for his horn-playing friend Joseph Leutgeb. The jokes which the composer made at Leutgeb's expense are wellknown. For example, he called the dedicatee a donkey in the autograph, and, as Henrik Wiese evidences in his preface, Mozart also occasionally enjoyed a bit of tomfoolery with the soloist in the musical text as well.Otherwise the editor's task was anything but amusing. The main source - the autograph score - is incomplete: missing are the close of Movement I as well as the entire slow middle movement. For these two sections, Wiese used a copy of the score from the archive of the publisher Johann Andre. The unusual circumstance that Mozart generally left the horn part almost unmarked recurs in the Concerto K. 417 and was deliberately maintained in the Urtext edition.with parts for horn in F and Eb major.
