Frédéric Chopin spent his fifth summer at George Sand's country estate in Nohant in 1844. The time away from Paris gave the composer the necessary creative free space to produce the delicate Berceuse (lullaby) as well as the b minor sonata that year. The former is known for its dreamy, exquisite ambient sound - and yet it still numbers amongst Chopin's most fabricated works. It was originally intended to have the somewhat sober title 'Variantes?: a sketch shows how Chopin conceived these 'Variantes?. The genesis and source situation are explored in our revised edition that reflects the latest scholarly findings. A classic with a new look in the Henle catalogue! / Piano

 À la fin de sa vie, Chopin a conjuré ses proches de brûler la cinquantaine de pièces et mélodies qu'il s'est refusé de publier de son vivant ' par respect de son public ', Trois ans après sa mort, petit à petit, ces oeuvrettes commençaient à voir le jour, car l'on a considéré - à juste titre et jusqu'à un certain point - que l'auteur manifestait trop de sévérité à l'égard de ces compositions, qui sont sans aucun doute marquées, quoique plus faiblement, par le sceau de son génie,Parmi cet ensemble s'en détachent une Valse et un Nocturne publiés tous deux au 20ème siècle, d'après une seule feuille recto-verso, attestée de la main du Maître, Plusieurs musicologues mettent sérieusement en doute leur authenticité - l'on peut comprendre : indigence formelle, main gauche malhabile et banale, platitudes harmoniques inhabituelles, quelques arabesques disgracieuses, quantité de modulations défectueuses, Il n'empêche que l'ensemble appartient à l'univers poétique de Chopin, Au cas où elles seraient de lui, elles ne pourraient alors qu'être des pièces de première jeunesse, improvisées et transcrites à la hâte, sans aucun retour en arrière,J'ai eu envie d'imaginer ce que, dans ce dernier cas, notre musicien aurait pu réaliser si, à l'époque de la composition des Mazurkas opus 59, l'idée lui était venue de revoir ces pièces, et plus particulièrement la Valse en la mineur, Chopin est inimitable, personne n'en doute, Mais s'il faut jouer cette oeuvre, c'est aujourd'hui sous cette forme que je consens à l'interpréter, J'ai le sentiment que je respecte davantage ainsi son souvenir en abandonnant définitivement, selon son dernier voeu, la version primitive de cette Valse, tant diffusée de nos jours, / Piano

Chopin wrote many Mazurkas. The Mazurka In D is one of the lesser-known examples.The Contredanse is written in the little-used key of G Flat Major. There remains controversy asto whether it was actually written by Chopin or not. If it was it was probably written c.1827 but it was never published during his lifetime. Frédéric Chopin (1710-1849) was a Polish composer andvirtuoso pianist whose compositional career was spent mostly in Paris. He only wrote music for the Piano and is best known today for his 12 Etudes and 24 Preludes a key part of any pianist?s repertoire.

Chopin vécut une année 1845 difficile, qui faillit être marquée par l'annulation d'un voyage prévu en Italie avec George Sand. Il se plongea pourtant avec sa 'Barcarolle' dans l'atmosphère de Venise, la ville-lagune: les thèmes employés rappellent les mélodies de gondoliers - ils sont soutenus par un accompagnement suggérant de manière très imagée les clapotis de l'eau et les coups de rame. Chopin développe la forme strophique à la base de l'oeuvre en une musique très complexe, remplie de tension, de contrastes et de ruptures. Nous avons profité de la révision de la partition de cette oeuvre unique pour l'éditer de manière isolée (parallèlement au volume Chopin 'Pièces pour piano', HN 318), accompagnée de commentaires détaillés. / Piano / Chanson En Séparée

Easy piano pieces with practising Tips-This volume presents easy pieces for Piano by great virtuosos. It unites the two greatest and perhaps best-known pianists of the 19th century Frédéric Chopin and Franz Liszt. The technical requirements of these works are very moderate without muting the stylistic characteristics of these two composers. The ability to play an original composition by Liszt in the first years of lessons can be very motivating for the Piano student. Also featured in this collection are works by the virtuoso Ferdinand Hiller to whom Robert Schumann dedicated his Piano Concerto. As in many of the works by Liszt and Chopin Hiller's works are frequently reminiscent of folk music. His Irländisches Lied and Fandango included in the collection are fine examples of 19th-century 'world music'.
