🎶🎹 Probably no other work in recent years has brought us as many inquiries from musicians, customers, and dealers as the Henle edition of Rachmaninoff's 3rd Piano Concerto in D minor, Op. 30. With over 1,000 measures, the concerto took quite a while to edit, but it has finally been available since August 2023. 📅 The new Henle edition comes with a wide range of features. The ossia cadenza, which can be difficult to read in small print, is also reproduced on an insert page for rehearsals. However, a Henle Urtext edition meets not only the highest optical standards, but also in terms of content. To our knowledge, the autograph score (on deposit at the British Library) has been analyzed for the first time ever in preparation for our new edition. 📜🔍 Rachmaninoff expert and world-renowned virtuoso, Marc-André Hamelin, was once again responsible for the fingering of the piece. 🎼✍️ In the latest blog post, editor Dominik Rahmer takes us on a short tour of the edition’s extraordinary features: https://lnkd.in/dAtXMzXY 📝✨ Want to start playing right now? You can find the concerto in our Henle Library App or buy it as a printed edition on our website: https://lnkd.in/dZ3NemUU 📲🛒 #trustinblue #henlelibrary #henleverlag #Rachmaninoff #pianoconcerto #urtext #sheetmusic

Have you ever been curious about the process of choosing titles for our newly released Piano Album? At our publishing house, we place great emphasis on creating a solid foundation for our collections. As stated by our Head of Publishing, Norbert Müllemann, this is then followed by the satisfaction of piecing together all the elements like a puzzle. 🧩 We would like to share some insights about the selection with you: 📘 The pieces vary in difficulty from easy to medium levels. 📘 We have decided to showcase only one piece per composer. 📘 It features works from various periods in music history. 📘 The collection reflects the profile and history of our publishing house. 📘 Our innovations and developments, such as revised editions (Invention 1 C major BWV 772 by J.S. Bach), are also visually represented. 📘 Lastly, we love to share some of our very favorite titles with you. Norbert Müllemann considers Scarlatti's Sonata a definite standout, and it was an easy decision for him to include it in the Piano Album. 💙 Piano Album: https://lnkd.in/dEYk6uCx Schönberg: https://lnkd.in/dvgqzizP Gershwin: https://lnkd.in/dGzBEqpf *** #urtext #henleverlag #trustinblue #pianomusic #schoenberg #gershwin #bach #scarlatti

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. Don’t want to wait?

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
