Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Viennese Sonatinas Arranged For Flute And Piano: Flute:

Works for Piano and Violin I. Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. Mozart ne s’est adonné à aucun autre genre de musique de chambre autant qu’à celui des duos pour piano et violon, qu’il s’agisse de sonates ou de variations. Exploitant les possibilités d’interaction de ces deux instruments par des combinaisons et des croisements toujours renouvelés, en particulier dans les sonates, il composa ainsi des oeuvres d’une beauté pure et intemporelle alliant force dramatique, élégance et profondeur de sentiments. Cette édition de travail offre le texte complet et non modifié des partitions publiées dans les trois éditions pratiques «bleues» Henle Urtext HN 77, 78 et 79, respectivement l’édition sous reliure lin de l’ensemble des sonates pour violon deMozart HN 80. / Partition brochée / Répertoire / Violon et Piano

On the occasion of the marriage of her son Archduke Ferdinand of Austria to the Princess Maria Ricciarda Beatrice of Modena the Empress Maria Theresia commissioned the young Mozart to compose the work Serenata Teatrale “Ascanio in Alba”. The librettist the Viennese Abate Guiseppe Parini one of the most outstanding poets of the 18th century wrote a baroque-designed libretto which paid homage to and congratulated the royal couple.Mozart wrote the music in only a few weeks from the end of August until 23 September 1771. The first performance took place on 17 October 1771 in Milan to rousing success. Shortly thereafter LeopoldMozart wrote that his son's composition had so overpowered the main performance of Hasses opera “Il Ruggierio ” from the previous day that he could hardly describe it.- Urtext of the New Mozart Edition- Full score (BA4504-01) and vocal score (BA4504-90) available for sale- Performance material (BA4504-72) available for hire

After Volumes IV and III of the series with Mozartâ??s complete string quartets appeared as Henle Urtext editions in early 2017 and 2019 respectively Mozart expert Wolf-Dieter Seiffert now presents Volume II â?? in full score and individual parts. Included are the â??Early Viennese Quartetsâ? from 1773 K. 168â??173. Entries in the autograph manuscript by the composerâ??s father Leopold however suggest that the ordering of the six works into a unified series of quartets was his doing. In his preface Wolf-Dieter Seiffert shares brand-new findings on the actual chronology of the genesis of these quartets. Moreover he succeeds in correcting what in prior editions were occasionalinaccuracies in dynamics and articulation thereby producing a new assured musical text. With artistic input from the Armida Quartet Volume II of the String Quartets also sets the benchmark in the Mozart Edition!

These Six Viennese Sonatinas were not originally composed by Mozart for the piano. They are a contemporary arrangement of the Wind Divertimentos K 439b which Mozart wrote in 1783. The Divertimentos are notable for their conciseness of form and their melodic richness. They therefore make an excellent introduction to Mozart's piano music even though they are not completely typical of Mozart's piano writing. We do not know for certain who made the arrangement but Alexander Weinmann has shown that it was probably Ferdinand Kauer. The order of movements is not the same as in the original; moreover some of the Trios have been exchanged and recapitulations have been shortenedin some instances. The original voice leading has been replaced by voice leading suitable to the piano. The 2oth_century editions by Rehberg (Schott) Rowley (Peters) and the old edition by Kapral (originally published by Universal Edition) are based on a Ricordi reprint edited by Muggelini in 1907; its musical text is unreliable and there are many arbitrary alterations. The present edition is therefore based on the first edition of the arrangement published by Artaria of Vienna in 1803. By comparing it with the score of the Divertimentos (Mozart Complete Edition Series XXIV No. 62 1905) and with the first edition of the parts it was possible to establish the precise articulation and dynamic markings and to add them where needed. For piano pupils simpler versions are suggested in footnotes as are possible executions of ornaments. Metronome markings have been provided by the editor; like the footnotes they should be taken only as suggestions.
