Beethoven, Ludwig vanConcerto for Pianoforte and Orchestra in D major op. 61 after the Violin Concerto- High quality Bärenreiter Urtext edition- Urtext solo piano part and an additional piano part with fingering- New kind of presentation of the piano reduction incorporating solo piano parts as customary in the 19 th century
 
After attending the premiere of Beethoven’s stately concerto for violin and orchestra Muzio Clementi approached the composer and requested the work in a transcription for piano and orchestra; his wish was fulfilled in 1807 providing us with not just an alternative version of the composition but also one with authentic cadenzas which Beethoven had not written for the Violin Concerto! This version has waited a long time to be properly edited after the existing sources and the famed Beethoven scholar Jonathan Del Mar has done just that!Working with all known sources, Del Mar finally presents us with Beethoven’s solo piano articulation and dynamics and Beethoven’s cadenzas. And, for the first time we now have clarity regarding the meaning of Beethoven’s Solo and Tutti markings.All in all, a groundbreaking scholarly critical edition; a “must“ for every pianist, every orchestra and every music library.The piano reduction will be presented in a new format:As customary in the 19 th century there will be a solo piano part containing tutti passages, cues and the piano solo. This part will be inserted – as with string and wind concertos – in the piano reduction. This affords the soloist sensible page turns and offers the possibility to lead the ensemble from the piano. The piano reduction will include the reduction of the orchestral score as well as the solo piano part above it in small print.

Smetana, BedrichTschechische Tänze für Klavier
“Czech Dances for Piano” are the last cycle, and at the same time, the high point in Bedrich Smetana’s works for piano. The impetus for the composition of this work for Smetana was probably the first series of “Slavonic Dances” by Antonin Dvorak.
The volume contains the four polkas composed in 1877, with which Smetana completed his stylisation of the polka in masterly fashion, together with ten folk dances from 1879, with titles such as “ Furiant ”, “ Slepicka ” (Little Chicken), “ Oves ” (Oats), “ Medved ” (Bear), “ Cibulicka ” (Little Onion), “ Dupak ”, “ Hulan ” (Ulan), “ Obkrocak ” (Callipers), “ Sousedska ”, “ Skocna ” (Spring Dance).
Behind these names are diverse, richly varied types of exuberant youths’ and lyrical girls’ dances. The cycle culminates in two group dances.

Smetana, BedrichAlbum Leaves- Urtext based on the Complete Edition of Bedrich Smetana’s Piano Works- Tried and tested fingerings by the editor- New foreword by Jarmila Gabrielova (Cz/Eng/Ger)
A further volume of Smetana’s piano works reveals the composer as creator of short, lyrical pieces – moments of repose, varied in character and style. The pieces were mostly written in the 1840s-50s with the intention of composing works using all 24 keys, something which Smetana ultimately did not fully realise. The composer prepared some of them for publication himself – the first six works were published in 1851 as “Album Leaves” op. 2, and others were issued later under the title “Sketches”, with the dedication “to Frau Clara Schumann in deepest admiration” (opp. 4–5, 1858). This edition contains a complete collection of pieces, also including occasional compositions and posthumously-published pieces. The music in the volume is based on the “Complete Edition of Bedrich Smetana’s Piano Works” and has been provided with fingering and pedalling suggestions by the pianist and Smetana interpreter Jan Novotny.

#html-body [data-pb-style=KDT4XCO]{justify-content:flex-start;display:flex;flex-direction:column;background-position:left top;background-size:cover;background-repeat:no-repeat;background-attachment:scroll}The set of four piano pieces for children titled Jaro v zahrade (Spring in the Garden), H. 125 by Bohuslav Martinu (1890-1959) is here published in a new edition. The composer’s autograph is missing today, and therefore the editor Ales Brezina (whose changes are indicated in the musical text with square brackets) limited himself to correcting several obvious errors. He has retained the fingering suggested by Vilém Kurz who prepared the first edition. Perhaps the most visible change from earlier editions is omission of the titles of individual pieces in the set, because it is very likely that they are not the invention of the composer but rather were added later by the publisher or someone else. The piano texture is simple and takes into consideration the instructive intention of the work, whose greatest attributes are its lyricism and playfulness. Preface by the editor is published in four languages (Cz./Eng./Ger./Fr.).
 

#html-body [data-pb-style=QDBQSAV]{justify-content:flex-start;display:flex;flex-direction:column;background-position:left top;background-size:cover;background-repeat:no-repeat;background-attachment:scroll}This cycle of piano pieces occupies an exceptional position among the other compositions from Bohuslav Martinu’s early period. In view of the musical and aesthetic challenges this work presents, the cycle Puppets goes beyond the other pieces from this period which, broadly speaking, are didactic in nature and designed for the purposes of study. Martinu wrote the cycle between the years 1912-1925 and, during this time, he reworked and changed the pieces to the extent that Puppets I chronologically comes after Puppets III, which is the earliest in the series. The third book (Puppets I) dates from 1925 and contains five short pieces: Columbine Dances, The New Puppet, The Shy Doll, Fairy Tale and, finally, The Puppets’ Dance. Puppets I-III are a joy to play, while providing a worthwhile source of study material, and are an essential part of the repertoire of young pianists. All three books are published by Editio Bärenreiter in new, revised urtext editions edited by Ales Brezina.
