Mendelssohn - Trio N 1 Op 49 - Violon, Violoncelle Et Piano

Full score for Violin Cello and Piano of Felix Mendelssohn's Piano Trio No.1 In D minor Op.49 and Piano Trio No.2 in C minor Op.66. Upon hearing the first trio Robert Schumann declared Mendelssohn is the Mozart of the nineteenth century! Written in the composer's famously flowing Romantic style these two works are staples of the repertoire and anchors of many chamber music series. Both appear here for the first time in a single and affordable study edition. Mendelssohn drew upon a variety of influences in his musical style - chiefly Bach Mozart and Beethoven. Like the other German composers of his generation Mendelssohn created works that mirror the era'stension between Classicism and Romanticism. These trios are universally regarded as among his finest works with marked contrasts ranging from slow movements to lively scherzos in the manner of his Songs Without Words.

Schumann s?intéressa relativement tardivement à la musique de chambre.

En 1842 virent alors simultanément le jour six pièces de même importance, parmi lesquelles également son premier Trio avec piano, qu?il fit publier en 1850 seulement sous le titre Vier Phantasiestücke, lui attribuant le numéro d?opus 88.

Entre-temps, il avait déjà composé le Trio en ré mineur op. 63 (1847) et celui en Fa majeur op. 80 (1847/1849). En 1851, alors qu?il vivait à Düsseldorf, il composa encore le Trio en sol mineur op. 110.

Les quatre trios de Schumann figurent, avec les trios de Mendelssohn et de Brahms, parmi les oeuvres les plus importantes du genre au XIXe siècle.? / [Oeuvres pour trio avec Piano] / Classique / Partition / Cartonné / Plats de carton /

Piano Trio no. 1 in d minor op. 49. Mendelssohn is considered a self-critical composer, who repeatedly reworked a number of his pieces until he deemed them worthy to be published. The path to his first Piano Trio was particularly rocky: only after several attempts was he able to complete it in the summer of 1839: it appeared in 1840 after further revisions. This perfectionism paid off, for Mendelssohn?s d minor Trio was immediately received with enthusiasm. Robert Schumann wrote: ?It is the master trio of the present day, like those of Beethoven in Bb and D and that of Franz Schubert in Eb were in their time: a very beautiful composition which after years will still delight grandchildren and great-grandchildren.? Which was to prove true: even today, it numbers among the most popular works in the trio repertoire in general. The trio, taken from the volume Mendelssohn · Piano Trios HN 957, is now available from Henle for the first time also as a practical single edition.
