Eulenburg Miniature Scores

Brahms' Hungarian Dances are among the most popular compositions in the field of light classical music with dance no. 5 probably being the most well-known one of the altogether 21 pieces of the cycle. It is this dance the arrangement for saxophone quintet at hand is based on. Answers to the questions to what extent Brahms incorporated traditional Hungarian melodies into these pieces or whether the dances represent original creations of his own written in a "Hungarian style" might be found in specialist literature or on the internet. These sources may also be consulted to get further information on the history of origins of these compositions. The original version of the Fifth Hungarian Dance for Piano Four-Hands published in 1869 is written in F# minor. For most of the arrangements (for orchestra and for any other conceivable type of ensemble) created thereafter in rapid succession - but also for this present version written for saxophone quartet - the key of G minor was chosen. The markings for tempo and dynamics included are based on the original composition but also take into account certain performance practices. The individual voices take turns in executing the main melody. The brackets appearing in the score and in the individual parts mark the beginning and the end of those passages where the respective instrument takes the lead. The arrangement for quintet at hand can be performed soloistically or in chorus. Instrumentation : 5 saxophones (SAATBar)

Hungarian Dance No. 5 - 5 saxophones (SAATBar). Partition et parties.

Johannes Brahms a écrit près de sept mille lettres, donc il n'existait jusqu'à présent pas de traduction en français. Christophe Looten, auteur d'ouvrages reconnus sur Wagner, propose de combler cette lacune avec cette passionnante anthologie. On y découvre, non sans surprise compte tenu de la célébrité du compositeur, une foule d'informations encore ignorées sur sa vie et son ceuvre. Johannes Brahms n'était pas un homme d'un contact facile. Excellent musicien, il était volontiers silencieux et désarçonnait nombre de ses interlocuteurs. Le maître était ainsi susceptible de ne pas dire un mot pendant une conversation ou alors de se contenter de répondre par monosyllabes. Ce qu'on dénote dans ses lettres, c'est leur brièveté. Les missives de Brahms vont toujours directement au but : elles traitent d'un sujet, en l'abordant de front et en délaissant souvent les circonstances extérieures. A leur lecture, on cerne ainsi le caractère du compositeur avec infiniment plus de finesse que dans les biographies qui lui sont consacrées. Ce recueil de lettres permet une sorte de tête-à-tête avec l'artiste et nous fait accéder à un niveau de connaissance quasi "intime" de sa personnalité.

Brahms par ses lettres

Concert 01 d op.15 poche

The edition is supplemented with a facsimile of the autograph. As well as being a bibliophile´s delight, the edition also offer the opportunity to study the composer´s own manuscript in all its details. The most subtle nuances, which can only be represented in musical handwriting and never in print, can thus provide a logical extension of the typographical limitations of engraving, and convey additional stimuli for consideration of the interpretation of the work. Instrumentation : piano op. 39

Vienna Urtext Edition and facsimile

With more than 1, 200 titles from the orchestral and choral repertoire, from chamber music and musical theatre, Edition Eulenburg is the world's largest series of scores, covering large part of music history from the Baroque to the Classical era and looking back on a long tradition. Instrumentation : string quartet op. 51/1

With the new Urtext Primo series, the Wiener Urtext Edition wants to close the gap arising at the point of transition to additional lessons after having studied a piano method. Beginning with a performance level which is outlined by pieces such as Bach's Minuet in G (BWV Anh. 116), Mozart's Minuet in F (KV 5) or Schumann's Wilder Reiter (Op. 68/8), works by three different composers are selected for each volume of the Urtext Primo series, with the aim of offering piano pupils (or even adults who want to resume piano playing) a wide range of repertoire pieces on the basis of which they can enhance their technical and musical skills. The pieces' range of levels of difficulty is relatively narrow so that the volume can be used continuously over a period of about two years. This is what distinguishes the Urtext Primo approach from almost all common anthologies. The selected repertoire takes into account not only pieces of the classic canon of lessons, but also lesser known works which are in no way of less importance for piano lessons. The Urtext Primo volumes are published in the internationally recognised standard of the Wiener Urtext editions. The explanations included in each volume shall help to deepen the knowledge of musical styles, music history and piano playing. A repertoire chart at the end of each volume gives a rough overview of the levels of difficulty of the selected pieces. Volume 4 combines works of the German Romanticism by Schumann, Brahms and Theodor Kirchner. Apart from well known pieces from Schumann's 'Album for the Youth' and the easiest waltzes from opus 39 (in the easier version) by Brahms, the selection contains the attractive set of variations from Schumann's first Youth Sonata Op. 118/1 and Brahms' Saraband in A minor WoO 5/1 as well as a number of pleasant pieces by Theodor Kirchner which continue the tonal air of Schumann and Brahms in easy playable pieces.
