Fauré’s 13 Nocturnes form the most significant group of piano character pieces in his oeuvre. Despite their title – which places them in the tradition of John Field and Frédéric Chopin – Fauré here develops a genre all of his own. These are no dreamy scenes of the night but carefully structured iridescent pieces that alternate between lyrical elegance and passionate drama. Fauré composed the 6th Nocturne in 1894 while spending the summer at the house of his parents-in-law. With its strong contrasts of tempo metre and harmony it is by far the most significant and best-known of his Nocturnes. In a letter that he wrote after completing it Fauré wrote: “Modern piano music that isa little interesting is an extremely rare thing” – a state of affairs that seems to have been a good enough incentive for him to enrich the repertoire with his Nocturne op. 63!

English Suites BWV 806-811-Although people might like to think that the “English Suites” were composed after the “French Suites” (HN 71) “the temperamental and in part virtuoso flow of these Suites is more characteristic of the musical language of the young Bach” (from our preface). The kaleidoscopic variety of the six “English” Suites is breathtaking. One lifetime is not enough to exhaustively comprehend and penetrate them. We provide the sustainable musical basis for this in different formats: the complete paperbound volume (HN 100) clothbound (HN 101) divided into Nos. 1–3 (HN 102) and Nos. 4–6 (HN 103) and last but not least in a very good value study edition with the identical musical text (HN9100).

Vier Duette Goldberg-Variationen-The Clavierübung published in four sections belongs to the few works of Bach that he allowed to be printed during his lifetime. Part I which appeared in print in 1731 contains the six Partitas Parts II–IV were issued in 1735 1739 and 1741/2. These are the parts that form the basis for the compilation that we find in this volume. The Italian Concerto and the French Overture constitute Part II and in a way serve as a kind of echo of French and Italian orchestral music of the time here transposed to the keyboard. The Four Duets are contained in Part III of the Clavierübung next to important works for the organ however since they are conceived for two parts they are idealfor piano or harpsichord.

Russian army officer Cesar Cui is best known for his avocational life in music - as a composer and music critic. Even though Cui composed in almost all genres of his time his status today in therepertoire is considerably small based (in the West) primarily on some of his Piano and chamber music - such as the (originally) Violin and Piano piece Orientale . Part of Kaleidoscope a collectionof 24 miniatures (most of which are now forgotten) Orientale has been a staple on violinists' and cellists' encore lists for more than a century now. The piece is a prime example of Cui 's strongesttalent the crystallization of mood at an instant in his instrumental miniatures. The 6/8 time Allegretto rides along on a tambourine rhythm set up by the soloist in the opening bars with the main tune offered by the Piano andlater taken up with tenderness by the Cello. As the name suggests this beautiful miniature carries oriental sounds and motives symbolising the mysterious atmosphere of the desert and with a performance time of under2 minutes is a perfect addition to any cellist's repertoire.

More than a few experts and aficionados count Mozart’s string trio in E-flat major K. 563 among his most magnificent compositions. This masterwork entered into Mozart’s own catalogue of works on 27 September 1788 as a “Divertimento ” presents the Urtext editor with great challenges. The autograph manuscript has been lost since that time and no other first-rate source texts exist. The most reliable albeit clearly imprecise source is the first edition published two months after Mozart’s death. Many twentieth-century editions however unfortunately reprinted the musical text of Breitkopf & Härtel’s so-called “Alte Gesamtausgabe” (Old Collected Edition) which wasedited by none other than the violinist Joseph Joachim on the basis of incorrect copies and is therefore completely corrupt. Even the “Neue Mozart-Ausgabe” (New Mozart Edition) is not error-free. The Henle edition essentially follows the first edition though aided by numerous corrective interventions described in the Critical Commentary. The edition’s Appendix presents the surviving fragment of the string trio movement in G major K. Anh. 66 (562e). How unfortunate that Mozart never completed this equally wonderful music which continues a little beyond the exposition and thus may quite aptly serve as a short encore. The three individual parts offer optimal flow for reading and playing thanks to the artful apportioning of notes in their layout including for instance various foldout tables and individual pages left blank. The study edition (HN 9625) available separately provides the full score to this edition of the parts. Henle Urtext Study Score edition of Mozart's String Trio E Flat KV 563 edited by Wolf-Dieter Seiffert. For Violin Viola and Cello.
