Easy Piano Pieces with Practising Tips-With the new Urtext Primo series the Wiener Urtext Edition wants to close the gap arising at the point of transition to additional lessons after having studied a Piano method. Beginning with a performance level which is outlined by pieces such as Bach's Minuet in G (BWV Anh. 116) Mozart's Minuet in F (KV 5) or Schumann's Wilder Reiter (Op. 68/8) works by three different composers are selected for each volume of the Urtext Primo series with the aim of offering Piano pupils (or even adults who want to resume Piano playing) a wide range of repertoire pieces on the basis of which they can enhance their technical and musical skills. Thepieces' range of levels of difficulty is relatively narrow so that the volume can be used continuously over a period of about two years. This is what distinguishes the Urtext Primo approach from almost all common anthologies. The selected repertoire takes into account not only pieces of the classic canon of lessons but also lesser known works which are in no way of less importance for Piano lessons. The Urtext Primo volumes are published in the internationally recognised standard of the Wiener Urtext editions. The explanations included in each volume shall help to deepen the knowledge of musical styles music history and Piano playing. A repertoire chart at the end of each volume gives a rough overview of the levels of difficulty of the selected pieces. Volume 4 combines works of the German Romanticism by Schumann Brahms and Theodor Kirchner. Apart from well known pieces from Schumann's 'Album for the Youth' and the easiest waltzes from opus 39 (in the easier version) by Brahms the selection contains the attractive set of variations from Schumann's first Youth Sonata Op. 118/1 and Brahms’ Saraband in A minor WoO 5/1 as well as a number of pleasant pieces by Theodor Kirchner which continue the tonal air of Schumann and Brahms in easy playable pieces.

La nouvelle collection Primo ('Urtext Primo-Reihe') de la Wiener Urtext Edition ('édition viennoise - texte original') a pour objectif de remédier au manque qui existe entre la fin de l'étude d'une méthode de piano et le passage à la suite du processus sous forme de cours. Au sortir d'un niveau défini dans ses grandes lignes par le menuet en sol de Bach (BWV Anh. 116), le menuet en fa de Mozart (KV 5) ou le Cavalier sauvage de Schumann, chaque cahier du Urtext Primo-Reihe se compose d'oeuvres choisies parmi celles de trois compositeurs différents, le but étant d'offrir à chaque élève de piano (ou à chaque adulte reprenant le piano) un éventail de morceaux du répertoire à l'aide desquels on sera en mesure de continuer à développer ses capacités techniques. Le cadre de difficulté des pièces est défini avec une relative étroitesse de manière à permettre une utilisation continue du volume sur une période d'environ deux ans. C'est en cela que le concept de 'Urtext Primo-Reihe' se distingue de presque tous les autres albums ou recueils. Dans le choix du répertoire, on tient compte de la nécessité d'y faire figurer des pièces habituelles au cadre du cours de piano classique, d'une part, mais aussi d'autre part des pièces moins connues dont la pertinence dans un cours de piano n'est pas moindre. Les volumes de la collection Urtext Primo-Reihe sont publiés au standard international de la Wiener Urtext-Ausgabe. Les explications adjointes à chaque volume ont pour objet d'approfondir les connaissances en matière de styles, d'histoire de la musique, et de données spécifiques au piano. Un tableau du répertoire porté à la fin de chaque volume donne une idée très globale de la difficulté des pièces y figurant. Le volume 6 de Urtext Primo contient, avec Clementi, Czerny et Cramer, des pièces de piano faciles de trois compositeurs qui ont tous trois fait partie du premier rang des pédagogues du piano, ayant composé pour lui des méthodes et des pièces de répertoire d'étude. De Muzio Clementi, il n'existe pas seulement une sélection de ses sonatines les plus populaires, les pièces choisies de Carl Czerny démontrent qu'on n'a pas toujours besoin des vieilles recettes de leçons de piano, tandis que Johann Baptist Cramer (rendu célèbre par les Etudes de Cramer-Bülow) est l'auteur d'un répertoire qui n'est pas exclusivement destiné aux pianistes de haut niveau. / Piano
