Par BEETHOVEN LUDWIG VAN. Owing to severe illness, Beethoven had to wait for over a year after completing op. 109 before beginning work on the second piece in his triptych of late sonatas: the Piano Sonata in A-flat major op. 110. The initial sketches date from summer 1821: the work was completed by the end of the year and appeared in print the following summer – in an edition so riddled with mist…

Brauner and published in 2008 as part of the series “Works of Gioachino Rossini”. But who needs a new critical edition of “ The Barber Of Seville ”? The opera has been performed in theatres throughout the world since 1816 and has never been absent from the repertoire. There a…

Piano Sonata C major K. 309 (284b) Editor: Ernst Herttrich Fingering: Hans-Martin Theopold I wish to do it to reflect the character of Mad:selle Rose, Mozart replied when asked how he intended to set out the Andante of his Sonata in C major. In autumn 1777 he had got to know Rosina Cannabich in Mannheim and during her lessons immediately introduced her to the Sonata K. 309 that he had composed f…

Par HAENDEL GEORG FRIEDRICH. In the fourth volume of his “General History of Music”, Charles Burney's verdict on Handel's “Giustino” was as enthusiastic as it was prophetic: “Upon the whole, this opera, so seldom acted and so little known, seems to me one of the most agreeable of Handel's dramatic productions”. In it, wondrous things happen: a peasant's son falls asleep while ploughing and is call…

Edizione Critica A Cura Di Federico Maria Sardelli - Ril. Brochure. Par VIVALDI ANTONIO. Antonio Vivaldi’s second published collection is fundamental to an understanding of the leap he took, at the end of the first decade of the eighteenth century, from provincial obscurity to Europe-wide fame. This edition asks and answers the hardquestions surrounding its exact date, its choice of dedicatee and …

Version II (1725). Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Unlike Bach’s other oratorio compositions, there is no definitive version of the St. John Passion. The first version of 1724 which is today’s standard version represents a mixture of different readings. The second version of 1725 was performed under the direction of Bach himself and can therefore be considered authentic. In addition to a change in orde…

Shortly after a rather unsuccessful performance of his Piano Concerto #1, Johannes Brahms wrote to Joseph Joachim in 1859: '... a second one will sound different?. Nevertheless, a good 20 years elapsed before that second concerto finally took form, and only in 1881 was he able to announce: 'I wanted to tell you that I have written a very small Piano concerto with a tiny little delicate Scherzo?.Th…
