Schoenberg, Suite Op. 25 [HL:51481548]

Suite Op. 25
Piano Solo

Publisher: Henle Urtext Edition
PIANO SOLO Composers: Arnold Schoenberg, Arnold Schönberg
Editor: Marte Auer

Schönberg's Suite op. 25 of 1923 refers to pre-classical forms in its movement titles Präludium, Gavotte-Musette, Intermezzo, Menuett-Trio and Gigue, yet at the same time it was the first work to be based entirely on a twelve-tone row. But anyone who believes that emotions can be left out of this completely new-sounding music is mistaken: Schönberg requires the player's full commitment, reflected in a whole palette of new articulation markings which he added to the musical text in order to ensure a nuanced and expressive performance. A challenge for all pianists! In the Henle Urtext edition, the Israeli-American pianist Shai Wosner, a true connoisseur of the Suite, provides indispensable assistance with the fingering to help decode this magnificent work.
