Image not foundIn the classical era, and far into the 19th century, piano trios were what we might call fashion accessories. It is thus no coincidence that Beethoven, following in the footsteps of Haydn and Mozart, took up this genre and created altogether 13 piano trios of his own. This first volume contains t
$54.36 Piano Trios - Volume I
Image not foundSend my septet out into the world a little faster - because the rabble is awaiting it. It was thus that Beethoven bade his publisher make haste in 1802. The public did not take offence at this rather derogatory term: Today the Septet op. 20 for Wind and Strings is one of the most popular chamber

Image not foundBrahms had already composed over 20 string quartets (he confessed to a friend that he had burnt all of that stuff) before he finally presented his Opus 51 to the public. In the end only three surviving works managed to withstand his high self-criticism; numerous layers of corrections bear witness

Image not foundBrahms had already composed over 20 string quartets (he confessed to a friend that he had burnt all of that stuff) before he finally presented his Opus 51 to the public.

$25.56 String Quartet in B-flat Major, Op. 67
Image not foundWhen it came to the genre of the string quartet, Beethoven was a relative latecomer. He was already 28 years old when he obtained the contract for the composition of the Quartets opp. 18 from Prince Lobkowitz, and 30 when he completed them. These are mature works that clearly distinguish themselv
$66.36 String Quartets Op. 18 and String Quartet Version of the Piano Sonata Op. 14
Image not foundAs the title implies, these four concertini by Joseph Haydn have to do with small concerti, whereby small is to be considered from several points of view: the size of the Haydn concertini, the scoring for piano solo, two violins and bass as well as the technical demands made upon the solo pianist
$39.16 Concertini for Piano (Harpsichord) with Two Violins and Violoncello
Image not foundAs the opus numbers suggest, the five string trios are relatively early works. Beethoven had sent opus 3 to print in early 1796, and in the same year, he began his compositional work on the Serenade op. 8, which was then followed by the three Trios op. 9. This marked the definitive close of Beeth
$60.76 String Trios Op. 3, 8, and 9 and String Duo WoO 32
Image not foundOne needn't hesitate a second in assigning Schubert's two piano trios to his best works. Both were written no later than 1827, hence one year before the composer's death, and are typical of the works of his maturity: abounding in blissful melodies paired with formative power and profound depths o
$65.56 Piano Trios
Image not foundIt is hardly imaginable today, but the Viennese public of Mozart's time was unable to appreciate the beauties of Mozart's Piano Quartet K. 478. It was not accustomed to the dramatic g minor character - especially of the first movement - coming from this composer. And thus it came about that the p

Image not foundThe origins of Brahm's G minor Quartet op. 25 go back to the 1850s, although the work was not finished until fall 1861. The composer held his new work in high esteem, even putting it on the program of his first public appearance in Vienna as pianist and composer one year later. To this day it is
$45.56 Piano Quartet G minor Op. 25
Image not foundIn the Classical period, and well into the 19th century, piano trios were something of a musical fashion accessory. There was thus good reason for Beethoven also to engage with the genre, following the example set by Haydn and Mozart. He left 13 piano trios in all. The works contained in Volume I
$59.96 Piano Trios - Volume III
Image not foundJoseph Haydn left five organ concerti to posterity. Their genesis can only be approximately determined, but is probably datable to the 1750s, when Haydn was still active, inter alia, as organist to Count Haugwitz. The C major Concerto Hob. XVIII: 10, transmitted only in one single manuscript, was
$23.16 Concerto for Organ (Harpsichord) with String Instruments C Major Hob.XVIII:10
Image not foundThe Weinzierl castle in Lower Austria, which still stands today, can be considered to be the birthplace of a chamber music genre, which is firmly established in our present-day repertoire. The young Haydn was invited to spend some time at this place by a wealthy musical friend and often met up wi
$65.56 String Quartets - Volume I
Image not foundSix works belong to opus 9 - the first group of Haydn's string quartets of which we know. The composer also went new ways as far as form was concerned: whereas he had still adhered to the five movement divertimento in the previous quartets opus 1 and 2, in this case he favoured four movements, so
$51.96 String Quartets - Volume II Op. 9
Image not foundThe autograph score of the Quartets op. 17 was in the possession of the imperial police chief Johann Nepomuk Neuwirth, whose widow gave it to the Wiener Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde in 1875. It is said that Haydn used to play the viola in quartet rehearsals at the Neuwirth's house. Whether the Q
$55.96 Joseph Haydn - String Quartets Volume III, Op. 17
Image not foundThe study edition complements the parts of the String Quartets op. 20 that have already been published in Henle Urtext (HN 208); a new preface by Christin Heitmann provides illuminating background information. Haydn did not assign the nickname Sun Quartets: it alludes to an edition of the time, i
$56.76 String Quartets, Vol. IV, Op. 20 (Sun Quartets)
Image not foundHaydn allowed about ten years to pass before composing a new cycle of string quartets after opus 20: the so-called Russian Quartets. This is the first series of quartets that we know he wrote with publication in mind. They are in a completely new and special manner, he wrote in several letters, a
$55.96 String Quartets, Vol. V, Op. 33 (Russian Quartets)
Image not foundThe quartets were dedicated to the violinist Johann Tost, who was the second principal violinist at the Esterházy court during the 1780s. His business sense led him to sell twelve quartets - opus 64 was probably amongst them - to a Parisian publisher. Whether Haydn approved of this is open to qu
$55.96 String Quartets Volume 8, Op. 64 (Second Tost Quartets)
Image not foundHaydn dedicated the series of Quartets op. 71 and 74 to the Hungarian Count Apponyi, a Viennese patron of music and a freemason friend. Haydn composed them when he was enjoying a great deal of success with his London Symphonies in England. With their weighty slow introductions and dense movements

Image not foundMasterly and full of new ideas: thus the Swedish ambassadorial secretary Silverstolpe when he first heard these pieces in 1797. Haydn's friend, the music historian Charles Burney, reported in 1799 that he had never taken greater pleasure in instrumental music. Our new edition of these six works,
$56.76 String Quartets - Volume X Op. 76
Image not foundThese are the last of the nearly seventy quartets in Haydn's oeuvre. Originally he intended to write a set of six quartets, as so often in the past, but at the time they were written, in 1803, Haydn's health was so poor that he could not fully satisfy the commission from Prince Lobkowitz. Instead
$45.56 String Quartets - Volume XI Op. 77 and Op. 103
Image not foundThe title Solo per il Violino which Haydn gave these sonatas in his Entwurf-Katalog (the handwritten catalogue he maintained of his own works), already gives us an indication: it is only the violin which is treated as a solo instrument in these six sonatas - the viola has an accompanying role. Ha

Image not foundFor piano, oboe, clarinet (Bb), horn (Eb), and bassoon. Works for or with wind instruments (then called Harmonie in German) were an extraordinarily popular genre in the Viennese Classical era. Beethoven also created a number of works that call for wind instruments, including his Piano Quintet op.
