Arrangement for Piano Four-hands by Maurice Ravel- Ravel had limitless admiration for Debussy’s famous orchestral work going so far as to say in an interview that it was his innermost wish to die to the sounds of this “uniquemarvel in the whole of music”. Since Debussy had himself already published a version for two pianos Ravel in 1910 undertook an arrangement for piano 4-hands. It was published that same year by Fromont in Paris andmade an impact all of its own. Henle have been able to recruit Debussy specialist Denis Herlin as editor of this Henle Urtext edition the first to evaluate all the available sources. The fingerings are by Andreas Groethuysen ofthe famous Tal & Groethuysen Duo.  

Par POULENC FRANCIS. Born in Paris in 1899, Francis Poulenc soon became a notable composer and pianist. His Trois Pièces for Piano were composed in 1928, towards the beginning of his career and paved the way for exceptional Piano works from the composer. Poulenc, as a member of Les Six, composed music in a style contrary to that of Richard Wagner and impressionists Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel. Trois Pièces for Piano is made up of three movements, 1. Pastorale, 2. Hymne and 3. Toccata, all of which exploit the Piano to its full potential. Being an imaginative and evocative composition, TroisPièces for Piano is a pleasure to play for all pianists./ Répertoire / Piano
