Peter Ilich Tchaikovsky
Six Piano Pieces op. 19
Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky numbers among the most frequently performed composers in the concert halls of the world. He had already composed two symphonies, three operas, the fantasy-overture “Romeo and Juliet” and a string quartet when he wrote his enchanting “Six Pieces for Piano” op. 19 in 1873. Each of the pieces is dedicated to one of his friends or to pianists close to him, and was individually tailored to their respective technical abilities. This Henle Urtext edition offers a preface that discusses in detail the genesis and the source situation of these piano pieces. They offer a good opportunity to get to know and love this popular Russian composer away from his best-known works.

Es war schon immer etwas teurer einen guten Geschmack zu haben. So mancher wird zögern, knapp 30 Mark für ein Heft von 40 Seiten auszugeben: Aber jede einzelne Seite ist es wert. Lange nicht mehr hat man die "Sechs Stücke für Klavier" aus einer so großartigen Ausgabe spielen können, wie sie jetzt vorliegt. Gerade Tschaikowskys Musik hat, wie die erstaunlich vieler anderer russischen Komponisten, viel unter mittelmäßigen und fehlerhaften Ausgaben zu leiden gehabt. Diese Zeit dürfte mit dem Engagement des Henle-Verlages vorbei sein. Es ist anzunehmen, dass der abgedruckte Notentext zu fast 100 Prozent dem Willen des Komponisten entspricht und es macht Spaß, aus dieser Ausgabe zu spielen. Zu der Musik selbst braucht wenig gesagt zu werden: Wer diese Stücke noch nicht kennt, dem sei so viel gesagt, dass es sich hier wohl um eine Glanzleistung in Tschaikowskys Klavierschaffen handelt und sich schon um der Variationen willen der Kauf lohnt.
Piano NewsHet uitgebreide historische voorwoord vermeldt de nodige bijzonderhedenover de ontstaansgeschiedenis, eerste uitvoering en diverse edities van de stukken. Dankzij Henle beschikken we nu over een zestal parels uit de Russische pianoliteratuur in een voorbeeldige uitgave. Warm aanbevolen.
Pianowereld... Ces pièces ont très vite séduit leurs dédicataires pour leur côté extrêmement pianistique. ... Trois sources sont intervenues dans cette édition: l'autographe qui a servi de modèle pour la première édition, la première édition et le 2e volume des œuvres complètes révisées par Pabst en qui le compositeur avait entière confiance. Aujourd'hui, l'opus 19 fait partie du répertoire des pianistes, dans son cycle intégral ou en pièces isolées. Rappelons encore la qualité de gravure propre aux Editions Henle.
CrescendoThis newly released single volume of Tchaikovsky, previously available from the publisher only in larger collections, lives up to the high standards one expects from G. Henle Verlag. The generous size and spacious format, the high-quality presentation, the careful editing with explanatory footnotes and the attention to detail: all are here in abundance, and now made more easily accessible via this single-volume edition. Included is an in-depth preface revealing information not only on the sources used for the current Urtext Edition but also on their compositional genesis. Each piece was designed with the musical and technical skill of a particular pianist-friend of Tchaikovsky in mind, which in turn led to their dedications to well-known pianists of the day. Beautifully conceived and a delight to play from, this is a timely arrival to the pianists’ Urtext library.
