During his lifetime composer Piano manufacturer and publisher Ignaz Pleyel bestowed upon the world of music an almost unimaginable number of published compositions some of them in multiple arrangements too. Of those what has remained in the repertoire today are primarily works for small chamber ensembles. Several Violin duos for instance have maintained their place among enthusiasts and students among them in particular the “Little Duos in Increasing Difficulty ” which appeared in print in 1806 “at the urging of several teachers” (according to the title page!). Now for the first time G. Henle Publishers presents these light performance pieces in anUrtext edition – both in full score and as two individual parts to optimise use for any occasion.

Fragments K. 442- Mozart often began work on a composition only to put it aside unfinished. Some of these fragments contain wonderful music as is proved by these three Piano trio fragments. Mozart composed them at different times as individual movements though the posthumous first edition brought them together as a supposedly new and unknown Piano trio by the composer and on this basis they were given the number “442” in Köchel’s catalogue. The first edition used completions by Mozart ’s friend Abbé Maximilian Stadler that were stylistically correct but possessed little originality. This Henle Urtext edition offers both these versions andnewly-composed highly rewarding completions by Robert D. Levin.

Opus 118 Nr. 2-When his contemporaries heard the works that Johannes Brahms had composed during his summer holiday in Ischl in 1893 – the Piano Pieces op. 118 – they were delighted. Clara Schumann was one of the first to be allowed to get to know the new pieces and she attested that they contained “a wealth of sentiment in the smallest of dimensions”. Philipp Spitta fittingly said that the works were “perfect for slowly absorbing in solitude and tranquillity.”

Op. 2 No. 2

Schumann’s great C-major Fantasy op. 17 was originally intended to be published as a “Sonata for Beethoven” entitled “Ruins Trophies Palms. Grand Sonata.“ Although he eventually abandoned this plan he maintained the Fantasy’s mighty design. Writing to his fiancée Clara Wieck in March 1838 he called the first movement “perhaps the most impassioned music I have ever written.” Accordingly it marks a point of culmination in his piano music forming an exemplary combination of passion delicacy and virtuosity – a demanding highly romantic work for ambitious pianists! Our volume presents a thorough revision of the musical text as well as an informative preface and text-criticalcommentary.
