When Chopin gave his Opus 23 the title “Ballade” in the mid 1830s he established the piano ballade as a new musical genre which was subsequently taken up by others including Brahms Liszt and Grieg. The idea of transforming a fictional dramatic and mystical event into music particularly suggested itself to the Romantic Schumann. He was enthusiastic about this work: “I have a new Ballade by Chopin. It seems to me to be one of his most brilliant (not most inspired) works.” Our single edition has been taken from the recently revised edition of the “Ballades” (HN 862).

for Harp Flute Clarinet and String Quartet-In June 1905 Ravel told a friend shortly before setting off on a long holiday: “I was terribly busy because of a piece for harp commissioned by the Érard company. I was able to finish it after a fashion thanks to 8 days of dogged work and three sleepless nights”. But the piece itself shows nothing of the haste in which it was written. In fact it seems as if Ravel knew how to explore all the musical possibilities of the harp in this brief but highly striking piece. This septet with its unusual combination of instruments is a further enrichment of Henle’s Urtext editions of Ravel’s chamber music.In June 1905 Ravel told a friend shortly before setting off on a long holiday: “I was terribly busy because of a piece for harp commissioned by the Érard company.

After moving to Vienna in 1781 Mozart returned only once to his hometown of Salzburg and that was from the end of July to the end of October 1783 in the company of his young wife Constanze. Just as we know little for certain about the events of those months Mozart also seems to have composed equally little there. Just these two exquisite duos for violin and viola come from this period and even they were apparently written as a friendly favor for Salzburg composer Michael Haydn (younger brother of the great Joseph Haydn) who for reasons of acute ill health was unable to complete a commissioned composition. Henle’s Urtext edition is based on the carefully notated autographmanuscripts the first edition appeared only in 1792 shortly after Mozart’s death making its value as a source debatable. In addition to a complete score of this wonderfully intimate chamber music foldout instrumental parts are included facilitating comfortable performance.

Piano reduction-The origin of this concert aria which is a core piece in the singer’s repertoire is swathed in mystery. We still do not know where Beethoven found the text for the aria. The text for the recitative was taken from Pietro Metastasio’s “Achille in Sciro” but there it was not followed by an aria. It is also not clear why Beethoven only published the piece nine years after writing it. The Critical Commentary at the end of this single edition from HN 970 gives detailed information on the source situation and all aspects of our edition of this dramatic masterpiece.

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. This edition is worldwide available.The Henle Urtext edition of Alban Berg's Four Pieces For Clarinet And Piano Op.5 edited by Ullrich Scheideler.

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.
