Charles Dancla (1817-1907) is considered to be the last great representative of the French Violin School. He knew, in a special way, how to implement the principle no music without technique, no technique without music in his teaching material. This is the case in his easy melodic studies. These studies are perfectly suited for young beginners after the second year, but also for adult players, ref…

The surviving second and third acts of Catone in Utica, one of Metastasio's most dramatic libretti, premiered in Verona in the spring of 1737 in a setting by Vivaldi, contain some of his finest, most mature, and most original arias, and are published here for the first time. They evince a potential dramatic intensity that makes us regret all the more the loss of the first act. Only one aria of Act…

for Four Voices and Piano. Par BRAHMS JOHANNES. The Four Quartets op. 92 were composed in 1884 during Brahms’ summer’s stay in Mürzzuschlag (Styria). The opening piece, however, was a revision of an earlier vocal quartet composed in 1877. Brahms had announced this to his friend Elisabeth von Herzogenberg on 13 November 1877 as “a bad joke on music paper” with which he was reacting to her reproach …

Song Cycle. Par SCHUMANN ROBERT. 1840 was Schumann ’s famous “year of song” that brought forth over 100 lieder.

Besides famous songs such as “Widmung”, “Lotosblume” and “Nussbaum” to texts by German poets, the collection also saw Schumann venture further afield, whether to the Scottish Highlands with settin…

Opera In Three Acts. Par SAINT-SAENS CAMILLE. Today, 'Samson et Dalila? is undoubtedly one of the best-known of Camille Saint-Saëns's thirteen operas, being more present in the repertoire of international stages than most other French 19th century compositions. During Saint-Saëns's lifetime, the opera was already regarded as the pinnacle of his dramatic stage works. The fact that the work's genes…

Kantate Zum Fest Mariae Reinigung. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Setting in E minor. A new edition of the version for solo soprano by Bach, which can hold a place alongside the version for bass solo. Bach originally composed the cantata for the Feast of Purification for a solo bass in the key of C minor [CV 31. 082/00]. Since its scoring for only one solo voice made it easily adaptable for performanc…

Arrangeur: Hartmut Schick. Par DVORAK ANTONIN. When Antonín Dvorák started composing his String Quartet No. 10 in late 1878, none of his quartets had yet been performed. However this new work, deliberately cast in the 'Slavonic” style, quickly achieved international renown and has remained among one of the most popular string quartets by Dvorák. The authoritative Dvorák scholar Hartmut Schick has…

With Piano Pieces In C Minor Woo 52 And 53. Par BEETHOVEN LUDWIG VAN. Beethoven's Sonata Op. 10/1 was composed over a long period between 1795 and 1798 in which the composer could not decide for quite some time whether to go for four or three movements. Beethoven considered two piano pieces in C minor (WoO 52 and 53) as potential third movements before the finale until he eventually decided in fav…
