Chopin's waltzes caused controversies. They reached a peak of popularity and were treated by many as masterpieces, by others as gravitating towards drawing-room music. Along with the nocturnes and impromptus, they are regarded as part of a ''female'' trend in Chopin's output. The ''Complete Works'' is the best known and most popular series of editions of Fryderyk Chopin's works, prepared by Ignacy Jan Paderewski, Ludwik Bronarski and Józef Turczyński. The aim of the editorial committee was as faithful a rendition of the composer's intention as possible by firmly basing the publication on manuscripts, copies approved by Chopin himself as well as the forst editions. The whole consists of 21 volumes.

Chopin was the only great composer who wrote almost entirely for the piano and his works are of such a uniformly high quality that they are all absolutely essential in the repertoire of any aspiring pianist. The Preludes and Etudes are exquisitely beautiful examples of his genius. They are reproduced here from the authoritative Mikuli edition and available in this one-volume publication.

The three volumes of The Masterwork in Music present complete English translations of major works by Austrian music theorist Heinrich Schenker, one of the twentieth century's leading figures in the field. First published in German between 1925 and 1930, these essays represent Schenker's greatest writings in analysis prior to the 1935 definitive formulation of his theory of music in Der freie Satz (Free Composition). This new publication of the long-awaited English translation, which first appeared in the distinguished Cambridge University Press edition, provides a valuable resource for scholars. Editorial annotations and elucidations by Dr. William Drabkin and his translators offer additional insights. This volume features a major essay on Mozart's Symphony #40 in G minor- studies of Bach keyboard and solo cello pieces- works by Haydn and Reger- theoretical writings on sonata form and fugue- and many examples of Schenkerian theory. Volume One includes analyses of keyboard works by Bach, Scarlatti, Chopin, Beethoven, and Handel and solo violin music by Bach, along with studies of other works. Volume Three's contents include Schenker's celebrated analysis of Beethoven's 'Eroica' Symphony and other works.Reprint of The Masterwork in Music, A Yearbook, Volume II, Cambridge University Press, 1996, with a new Introduction by William Drabkin.- See more at: http://store.doverpublications.com/0486780031.html#sthash.Wzwx6KIG.dpuf / Divers

Although each study emphasizes an aspect of virtuoso piano technique, the etudes are some of the most effectively moving of all the concert works in piano literature. This 144-page volume includes the 24 Etudes, Opp. 10 and 25 as well as the three etudes without opus numbers composed in 1839 for Moscheles and Fetis's Method of Methods. Pedaling is taken from the original manuscripts and first editions, and fingering is editorial.

Gabriel Fauré?s 13 Barcarolles composed over a period of almost four decades (1882 1921) are highly representative of his output for piano and are regarded as his most characteristic works. They reflect his breaking free from the Romantic idiom particularly that of Chopin and Mendelssohn developing an independent musical language in which he combined tradition and the emerging modernism.These important works are now made available in scholarly-critical Urtext editions based on the ?uvres complètes de Gabriel Fauré and reflect the latest state of research. Detailed forewords offer information on the genesis and significance of thecompositions as well as valuable suggestions on historical interpretation.All the available manuscript and printed sources as well as piano rolls containing recordings by the composer have been taken into consideration leading to new discoveries particularly regarding the Valses-Caprices.Based on the ?uvres complètes de Gabriel FauréBased on the latest research findings and extensive source studiesInformative forewords with advice on performance practice (Fr/Eng/Ger)Christophe Grabowski is a French pianist and doctor of musicology and studied in Warsaw and Paris.

NATIONAL EDITION SERIES A VOLUME 7 Jan Ekier. Par CHOPIN FREDERIC. The Preludes of Op. 28 include all 24 major and minor tonalities arranged in a circle of fifths, with each major key being followed by its relative minor. Contrary to custom of using this type of piece as didactic material, Chopin's cycle was intended as concert music. The Preludes are a diverse variety of mood, tempo, articulation, texture, etc.The objective of the National Edition is to present Chopin's complete output in its authentic form, based on the entire body of available sources. Sources were analysed with up-to-date scientific and musicological methodology. The National Edition was based on sources originated from the composer, mainly autographs, copies of autographs and first editions with the composer's corrections, and pupils' copies with Chopin's annotations. In cases when original sources were lacking, the closest possible materials were used. Collecting the source materials was a laborious task which took years of effort. The characteristics of sources, the links and discrepancies between them as well as the reasons for particular editorial decisions are discussed in the Source Commentary in each volume. The Performance Commentary appended to each volume includes: the realisation of ornaments, comments on pedal markings (the original markings sometimes are inadequate, due to the difference in sound between pianos used in Chopin`s times and modern pianos), suggestions as to the harmonic legato (a performance technique often used by Chopin and now forgotten).
