Intermezzi op. 4-Encouraged by the success of his “Papillons” Schumann composed his “Intermezzi” op. 4 also known as “longer Papillons” in 1832. Despite the at times improvisatory style Schumann worked very carefully on this composition “The Intermezzi are going to be something special – each note is going to be weighed up carefully”. The fact that Schumann was very preoccupied with counterpoint at the time cannot be missed. Bach’s influence can be especially felt in numbers 1 and 5 something that contemporary critics greatly appreciated. This edition has been revised in Schumann’s anniversary year to reflect the latest scholarly findings. An extensive source critical text has also beenincluded.?

For our Urtext edition of the Clarinet Sonata op. 167 we were able to consult the autograph for the first time. “At the moment I am putting my last ounce of energy into giving seldom considered instruments an opportunity to be heard” Saint-Saëns wrote to a friend in April of the year he died. A sonata for oboe one for clarinet and one for bassoon were thus composed- yet he was not to hear the premieres. As far as form and infl ection are concerned the three wind sonatas op. 166 –168 hark back to the gallant style of the 18th century and thus approach the neoclassicism movement around 1920. Humour wit and fine irony characterise these works for wind.? For Henle's Urtext edition of the Clarinet Sonata op. 167 they were able to consult the autograph for the first time.
