PIANO SUITES AND PIECES (LONDON 1733)COMPOSER: GEORGE FRIEDRICH HANDELPIANO SOLOHENLE MUSIC FOLIOS SOFTCOVERSERIES: HENLE MUSIC FOLIOSPUBLISHER: HENLE URTEXT EDITIONFORMAT: SOFTCOVEREDITOR: ELLWOOD DERRDESCRIPTION:-“HIS THINGS FOR CLAVIER ARE INCOMPARABLE, AND ALMOST INDISPENSABLE TO THOSE FAMILIAR WITH THE KEYBOARD”, WAS THE JUDGEMENT OF MUSIC THEORIST JOHANN ANTON SCHEIBE IN 1743 WHEN DISCUSSING GEORGE FREDERIC HANDEL`S KEYBOARD MUSIC. BY MAKING USE OF THE BAROQUE MASTER`S SECOND PRINTED COLLECTION OF KEYBOARD SUITES AND SINGLE PIECES OF 1733, THE INTERESTED PIANIST CAN PAINT A COLORFUL PICTURE. AMONG PIECES ENTITLED “SONATA”, “SUITE”, “PRÉLUDE” OR “CHACONNE” WITHIN HWV 434-442 IS TO BE FOUND THE WELL-KNOWN “CHACONNE IN G MAJOR” WITH ITS 21 VARIATIONS, A WORK STILL PERFORMED IN CONCERT HALLS TODAY.-THE PLAYER WILL ALSO DISCOVER HERE THE ARIA WITH FIVE GRACEFUL AND PLAYFUL VARIATIONS THAT WERE MADE FAMOUS THROUGH JOHANNES BRAHMS` OWN VARIATION SET. SINCE THE COLLECTION WAS PUBLISHED IN LONDON AND AMSTERDAM WITHOUT HANDEL`S CONSENT, AND IN A PRINT THAT INCLUDED MANY MISTAKES, AN URTEXT EDITION IS VITAL FOR CREATING A RELIABLE TEST. KLAUS SCHILDE`S RESTRAINED FINGERINGS WILL HELP OVERCOME MANY PROBLEMS, AND OPEN UP SOME SURPRISING PERSPECTIVES.CONTENTS: • SONATA IN B-FLAT MAJOR, HWV 434 • CHACONNE IN G MAJOR, HWV 435 • SUITE IN D MINOR, HWV 436 • SUITE IN D MINOR, HWV 437 • SUITE IN E MINOR, HWV 438 • SUITE IN G MINOR, HWV 439 • SUITE IN B-FLAT MAJOR, HWV 440 • WUITE IN G MAJOR, HWV 441 • PRELUDE AND CHACONNE IN G MAJOR, HWV 442 • APPENDIX: PRELUDE - ALLEGRO; EARLY VERSION, HWV 434 • PRELUDE - ARIA VON VARIAZIONI` EARLIER VERSION, HWV 434• MINUET, HWV 434 • CHACONNE; ALTERNATIVE VERSION HWV 435 • GIGUE; ALTERNATIVE VERSION, HWV 438 • ALLEMANDE; EARLIER VERSION, HWV 440 • SARABAND; EARLIER VERSION, HWV 440-NOTA: SI BUSCA ALGUNA PARTITURA O MÉTODO, ENVÍENOS UN MENSAJE Y CON GUSTO ATENDEREMOS SU COMENTARIO, SOMOS ESPECIALISTAS EN MÚSICA IMPRESA, SI REQUIERE FACTURA FAVOR DE SOLICITARLA AL MOMENTO DE SU COMPRA.
