Symphonie No. 3 - Symphonie Liturgique (Honegger Arthur)

At last the young pianist can play a concerto by a great composer. Heretofore, the masterworks in this form were too difficult for all but the most exceptional students. The charming Concetino, written by Haydn around 1765, was published for the first time in Edition Peters (No. 4611) with solo and original string parts for two violins and bass. In this Student Edition the editor has arranged the original accompaying parts for a second piano so that the teacher or another student may be the "orchestra".

Concertino (Divertimento) C-dur (Haydn J.)

The D-major Piano Concerto, K. 175, was written in Salzburg in Decemcer 1773. It is thus Mozart's very first instrumental concerto, whether for piano or any other instrument (his first violin concerto, K. 207, was not composed until 1775). Up to that time Mozart, then not yet eighteen years of age, had only made concerto arrangements of works by other composers, including three concertos based on sonatas by Johann Christian Bach. In many respects K. 175 reveals the composer's valuating ambitions, particulary in the virtuoso writing for the piano, its large-scale design, and the splendid colours obtained by adding horns and trumpets. The autograph score of K. 175, extant as late as 1860, has long been lost. For this edition a reliable substitute source has been consulted.

Piano Concerto in C KV 246 nr 8 (Mozart Wolfgang Amadeus)

Mozart's Piano Concerto in E-flat major (K 271), dated January 1777, is his last and most mature work in this genre written during his years in Salzburg. Composed considerably later than its three precessors K 175, 238 and 246, it forms a pinnacle in the output of the twenty-one-year-old composer. With this work Mozart attained an individual style of writing which had repercussions on his instrumental music as a whole. Its unusual formal design is no less extraordinary than the demands it places on the soloist. The present edition has been revised on the basis of the autograph score formely located in the holdings of the Prussian State Library in Berlin but now in Bilioteka Jagiellońska in Crocow.

Piano Concerto in E flat KV 449 nr 14 (Mozart Wolfgang Amadeus)

This volume present two compositions by Dmitri Shostakovich taken from quite different creative periods.
The Suite in F# minor for two pianos Op. 6, was written in March 1922 when Shostakovich was studying at the Petrograd Conservatory. As the autograph shows, he committed the eintire work to paper without a break and with practically no corrections, dedicating in to the memory of his father, Dmitri Boleslavovich Shostakovich, who had died only shortly before, on February 24. The Suite was first heard in public on March 20, 1925 in the Auditorium Minor of the Moscow Conservatory, played by the composer and Lev Oborin.
Shostakovich wrote his "Merry March" in 1949, assing to it in the autograph the opus number 81. He then apparently decided against publishing the piece, and instead used the opus number 81 for the oratorio "The Song of the Forests" composed the same year. In our edition we have followed the autograph.
