Gregory Stone has transcribed these three selected preludes for one piano-four hands. For much of his life George Gershwin sought to integrate the worlds of jazz and classical music. These pieces are not jazz improvisations but they do show something of the style of his own playing. Gershwin had intended to compose a set of twelve a sort of jazz Wohltemperierte Clavier but his unexpected death from a brain tumour at the age of 38 prevented this. At least seven survive (others may have ended up as songs) and this set of three as published form a satisfying unit. The first opens with a blue-note riff which forms the basis of the first theme.Contrasting material follows making use of a distinctive repeated note figure then the first idea reappears in a quasi-orchestral climax. The second prelude shows a curious kinship with Chopin???s A minor Prelude with its eerie accompaniment and hypnotic melody. The third exploits a similar major/minor ambivalence but dextrous syncopation gives it driving rhythmic energy.

La composition d??uvres pour piano n??tait pas le domaine de pr?dilection de Georges Bizet. Ses ?uvres pour piano sont peu nombreuses et peu significatives du point de vue de la forme du contenu et du caract?re. Il existe toutefois une exception: ses ?Jeux d?enfants? pour piano ? quatre mains compos?s en 1871 suite libre de douze pi?ces de genre courtes mais particuli?rement marquantes qui constituent un charmant petit chef-d??uvre. Avec une sobri?t? et une simplicit? empreintes d?esprit fran?ais il cr?e dans chacune de ces miniatures une atmosph?re unique et incomparable. L??criture et les moyens harmoniques utilis?s anticipent d?j? Ravel et Debussy! Certaines deces audaces furent pourtant malheureusement gomm?es au moment de la premi?re ?dition de 1872. C?est pourquoi il est d?autant plus important que notre ?dition urtext tienne ?galement compte du manuscrit autographe de Bizet. La pr?face et les remarques signalent toutes les variantes de la premi?re ?dition et offrent ainsi un aper?u passionnant de l?histoire de l??dition.

orchestrated by Ferde Grofé edited by Ryan Raul Bañagale. Par GERSHWIN GEORGE. The names of George Gershwin (1898–1937) and Ira Gershwin (1896–1983) are synonymous across the globe with American musical creativity. The Gershwin family estates, their publishers, and the University of Michigan have joined forces to produce The George and Ira Gershwin Critical Edition—the first-ever scholarly edition of the Gershwins’ music and lyrics. This all-new practical edition facilitates both study and performance, giving a wide audience of musicians, scholars, students, and enthusiasts alike greater insight into the Gershwins’ art. The goal is to create clear and definitive publications that achieve the most accurate representations possible of the Gershwin brothers’ unique and pioneering creativity. This all-new critical edition of the original 1924 arrangement of George Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue presents an authoritative transcription of arranger Ferde Grofé’s handwritten holograph score preserved in the collection of the United States Library of Congress in Washington, DC. The edition represents as best as possible the piece as premiered by the Paul Whiteman Orchestra at his 'Experiment in Modern Music' concert on February 12, 1924. Grofé prepared the score for the specific talents and timbres of the Whiteman Orchestra, largely from an ink fair copy of Gershwin’s two-piano short-score manuscript. Gershwin continued to modify the piano solo portion of this short score during rehearsals and, most likely, even after the premiere of the piece. / Date parution : 2023-10-31/ Répertoire / Piano 4 Mains
