Musical Perspectives with a Philosophical Spin: 🎶 On Mozart's “Second Naivité” 🎶 Delving into musicologist Alfred Einstein’s (photo) groundbreaking work on Mozart, the concept of “second naïveté” gives us an insightful perspective on Mozart’s later compositions. In our latest blog post https://lnkd.in/dEXpF9kt, Wolf-Dieter Seiffert reveals Einstein's view on how Mozart's music, particularly in works such as the C-major Piano Concerto K. 467 and the B-flat major Piano Concerto K. 595, is imbued with a simple yet profound innocence. This "second naïveté," a term borrowed from theological discourse, allows listeners to deeply connect with the heart of Mozart's music – a realm of pure emotion and authenticity. By the way: Wolf-Dieter Seiffert, Henle's former managing director, is currently preparing Mozart’s Piano Concerto K. 595 as an Urtext edition – a fascinating work you can look forward to.

What is the connection between the Little Mermaid and Arnold Schönberg's music? 🧜🏼♀️🎶💙 In 1920, Schönberg initially began composing his Five Piano Pieces op. 23 as a tribute to Claude Debussy for a memorial album. However, it wasn't until 1923 that he completed the pieces, this time as a standalone work commissioned by the music publisher Wilhelm Hansen in Copenhagen. This cycle marks a significant shift in Schönberg's musical style, as he moved from free atonal music to creating compositions based on tone rows. Although at this point, the tone rows did not necessarily include all twelve chromatic tones. * * * The Little Mermaid would certainly like No. 5 best, the famous "Waltz", an ironic play with genre traditions and at the same time a swift-moving piece of music! Explore this fascinating piano universe – the clear and neatly set score, edited by the renowned Schönberg scholar Ulrich Krämer, and Shai Wosner's fingerings will surely be of great help: https://lnkd.in/dEzNPMVD * * * #henleverlag #urtext #sheetmusic #classicalmusic #schönberg #copenhagen

"Busoni was a titan", world-class pianist András Schiff once said – and we agree! Ferruccio Busoni grew up to become one very early on: he began composing at the age of seven and studying at the Vienna Conservatory at the age of nine. While his early work shows above all a romantic background, later Johann Sebastian Bach in particular influenced Busoni's pianistic and compositional-artistic development. In the Henle catalogue you will find some of his most wonderful Bach transcriptions! Ferruccio Busoni was born 158 years ago today in Empoli near Florence – the ideal day to try your hand at the famous "Toccata in D minor", at least the first bars 😉 https://lnkd.in/dDWXmjkQ * * * #henleverlag #urtext #sheetmusic #classicalmusic #busoni

Sometimes it's the simple things that are the most beautiful. After all, the clarinet part of Mendelssohn's Sonata in E-flat Major is not particularly difficult (unlike the piano part). Interesting fact: he composed it at the young age of 15! We wish you all a peaceful Easter, full of happy and musical moments! *** https://lnkd.in/dsvNUjPz *** #henleverlag #urtext #henlelibrary #mendelssohn #clarinet
