Leonora n 3 op 72a ouverture (unger) poche

In terms of music history, the wind quintet genre is caught between two schools : 18th-century composers preferred the sextet or octet instrumentation with two equal instruments each for their wind divertimentos and serenades, whereas the Romantic composers preferred the warm sound of the string instruments - which only left a short period of transition for the mixed wind quintet. There was hardly any great classical music written for this tonally charming genre. The present arrangement of several selected bagatelles by Beethoven shall help to fill this gap in the classical repertoire. Besides, it is precisely the genre of the small intimate bagatelle which Beethoven cultivated his whole life that is able to create its own new charm as wind chamber music. Instrumentation : wind quintet

Simrock Original Edition

In 1796 Beethoven travelled to Prague where he met the Countess Josephine of Clary-Aldringen (later Countess Clamm-Gallas) who played the mandolin. For her, he wrote several works for mandolin and piano, four of which are still extant and have been arranged by Julius Berger for violoncello and piano. As Beethoven had written pieces for a mandolin tuned to G-D-A-E, it was unproblematic to transcribe them for the violoncello. The arrangements are written in the original keys and keep as close to the original as possible. These elegant works are little shining gems. Headed 'Adagio' and written in one movement at first, 'Sonatina' WoO 43a in the tragic C minor key with a bright C major section in the middle is followed by a marvellous 'Adagio ma non troppo' WoO 43b of religious depth. Instrumentation : cello and piano WoO 43b (179b)

Edition Schott

Le jeune Thésée quitte sa cité natale pour faire ses preuves comme héros et rejoindre, incognito, son père le roi Egée. Mais arrivé à Athènes il apprend l'immense tribut qui pèse sur la ville et ses habitants : chaque année des jeunes gens sont envoyés au roi Minos qui les livre en pâture au Minotaure. Thésée se porte volontaire et se joint à eux : il veut délivrer Athènes de son lourd fardeau. Il fera la rencontre de la fille aînée de Minos, Ariane, qui l'aidera, par amour, à sortir vivant de cette épreuve et s'enfuira avec lui. Il fallait la fougue et l'ampleur du grand compositeur Beethoven pour rendre compte de toute la dramaturgie du mythe de Thésée ! Une nouvelle façon de découvrir ce génie qui fête ses 250 ans cette année.

Thésée, Ariane et le Minotaure

Beethoven variations III - pour piano - Partition

The European Hymn is the hymn not only of the European Union but of Europe in a broader sense. The melody has been taken from the Ninth Symphony by Ludwig van Beethoven from 1823. In the last movement of this symphony Beethoven set music to the 'Ode to Joy' by Friedrich von Schiller from 1785. This poem sprang from Schiller's idealistic vision of men who become brothers - a vision Beethoven shared with him. In 1972 the Council of Europe adopted Beethoven's 'Ode to Joy' as its anthem. The well-known conductor Herbert von Karajan was commissioned to arrange three instrumental versions - for solo piano, wind orchestra and symphony orchestra. Without words, in the universal language of music, the anthem is an expression of the idealistic values of freedom, peace and solidarity which Europe stands for. In 1985 the heads of state and government adopted the hymn as the EU's official anthem. It does not replace the national anthems of the member states, but rather celebrates common values as well as unity in diversity. The score of this offical anthem is exclusively available from the Schott publishing house. Instrumentation : piano
