Haydn’s numerous divertimentos for strings and wind are cheerful functional music about whose genesis we know very little. Many stem from Haydn’s early years when the composer had to keep his head above water with musical odd jobs. Thus the Divertimento in G major Hob. II:9 for the unusual scoring of two oboes two horns two violins two violas and bass was quite possibly commissioned in the 1750s. In its exuberant vitality Haydn’s genius is already unmistakable here.

Study Score No. 42-For piano and orchestra. With this 1913 work Ernest Bloch inaugurated his so-called 'Jewish cycle' though apart from an emphasis on the augmented second (characteristic of cantorial melody) these poems are not particularly 'Jewish' and the work is not pictorial or dramatic but philosophical. Bloch describes the Danse as somber mystical languorous A nervous passionate theme announced at the beginning shoots through the entire movement. Of the Rite Bloch wrote This music is more emotional but there is something solemn and distant as in the ceremonies of a cult. The opening the most pictorial passage in the work conjures up the vision of a long solemn procession butit quickly moves to music of great consolation--as if to suggest the healing power of ritual. The last movement Cortege Funebre continues the mood of the second but gradually grief overpowers ritual until the orchestra seems to howl. The toment subsides to a mutter out of which comes yet another song of acceptance and serenity which proceeds to a noble close. This is a miniature score for study purposes.

“Señor Albéniz may well inscribe upon his escutcheon the words ‘Veni vidi vici’.” The London press thus commented on the Spaniard’s triumphal tour of Britain between 1889 and 1893. It was in the British Isles of all places that Albéniz increasingly turned to subjects from his native country composing España (HN 857) amongst other things. Although it might seem surprising in this tribute to the Iberian peninsula Albéniz also included a tango that appears in the form of a Cuban habanera.

Immediately after finishing his second Violin Sonata op. 108 Fauré started work on a sonata for Cello and Piano in early 1917 thus realising a long-conceived plan. In their predisposition and attitude both works are very closely related. In the Cello sonata a sombre dramatic opening movement is also followed by a calm relaxed slow middle movement and a graceful finale. The critical response to the first performances was subdued but on account of increasing interest in Fauré ’s complete late chamber music this sonata has recently been rediscovered as a substantial part of his oeuvre. The Henle Urtext edition constitutes the first criticaledition of this work. David Geringas a master of his craft supplied the markings in the Cello part.

In a letter to Erwin Schulhoff Berg bitterly complained about his unsuccessful attempt to find a publisher for his “Pieces for Clarinet” “Once again at my own expense! A few antique pieces in my apartment had to pay for it …” The concise miniatures are outstanding examples of the “little pieces” genre to which Arnold Schoenberg and Anton von Webern also contributed. We warmly recommend these short but imaginative pieces in Henle Urtext to all those clarinettists who are willing to experiment.
