Melodie et Scherzetto was composed in 1904 as examination piece for the Paris Conservatoire. Subtle melodies, fierce imagination and drama nurtured by the composition of stage works make the work a varied work full of emotions which, even today, is perfect for music lessons and concerts.This edition may contribute to making a good piece by a mostly forgotten composer known again. Arthur Coquard (1846-1910) studied law and music at the same time and was a composition pupil of Cesar Franck.Melodie et Scherzetto is part of the new Schott Student Edition series which provides varied teaching literature at five different levels of difficulty (easy to difficult) and contains practising tips and information by the editor Rudolf Mauz (Die frohliche Klarinette, Klarinette spielen - mein schonstes Hobby).
About Schott Student Edition

Every work in the series has been carefully selected and edited by experienced music teachers. The editions also contain a wealth of information on the pieces as well as useful advice on studying, rehearsing and interpreting the works. The first titles to be published in the Schott Student Edition series contain works for violin, violoncello, flute, clarinet and recorder. Further editions are in preparation.
