Violin Sonata No.1 by Robert Schumann for Piano and Violin (1851) Op.105
This volume presents the complete score for Robert Schumann's 1851 violin sonata, "Violin Sonata No. 1". Robert Schumann (1810 - 1856) was a seminal German composer and esteemed music critic. When his piano teacher assured him that he could be the most accomplished piano virtuoso in Europe, he dedicated his energies to this end. However, a severe injury to his hand meant that his dream could never be realised. Instead, Schumann focused on composing. He chiefly wrote compositions for the piano until 1840, at which time he began branching out, composing for orchestra and writing symphonies, operas, and other choral and chamber pieces. Some of his most famous compositions include: "Kinderszenen", "Album f羹r die Jugend", "Blumenst羹ck", and the "Sonatas" and "Albumbl瓣tter". Today, Schumann is generally considered to be one of the most important composers during the Romantic era. Schumann expressed dissatisfaction with his first violin and piano sonata, which is the reason he gave for writing a second. This volume features large, clear note heads and wide margins, making this edition perfect for studying and following the music. Classic Music Collection constitutes an extensive library of the most well-known and universally-enjoyed works of classical music ever composed, reproduced from authoritative editions for the enjoyment of musicians and music students the world over.

Handel was born in the same year as Johann Sebastian Bach and Domenico Scarlatti, and he is commonly hailed as one of the most important composers of the Baroque era. His most notable works include: "Water Music", "Music for the Royal Fireworks", and "Messiah". Featuring large, clear note heads and wide margins, this edition is perfect for studying and following the music.

The Well-tempered Clavier
(EMB). Bartok taught piano at the Music Academy in Budapest from 1907 to 1934. In his first years as a professor the Budapest music publishers Rozsnyai and Rozsavolgyi commissioned him to prepare so-called instructive editions (including suggestions, commentaries and fingerings for the performer) of several classics of the piano repertoire, altogether more than two thousand pages of music. Bartok's editing reflects contemporary ideas about performance, but is for the most part more detailed and elaborate than in other similar instructive editions at the turn of the century.

Lyric Suite, Op.54
Grieg's orchestral setting of five of his 6 Lyric Pieces, Op.54 for piano actually started with an orchestration made of Nos.2, 3, 4 and 6 by Anton Seidl (1850-1898), then conductor of the New York Philharmonic, for an 1894 concert under the title Norwegian Suite. In 1905, the composer obtained a copy of Seidl's score and set about re-working the orchestration of the four numbers above and added his own of the first number from the piano original, ultimately subtracting No.6 (Klokkeklang = Bell-Ringing) before publication. The orchestral setting was thus published with only 4 movements and given its premiere by the Concertgebouw Orchestra in Amsterdam in April of 1906 with the composer conducting. This newly engraved edition by Richard W. Sargeant, Jr. is based upon the composer's manuscript and the first edition full score issued by C.F. Peters in late 1905. The editor has included the Grieg's orchestration of No.6 as an optional second movement.

Die Tote Stadt Op. 12
(Study Score). This masterpiece, composed by Erich Wolfgang Korngold when he was only 23, was one of the great stage successes of the 1920s and 30s before being removed from theatre schedules by the National Socialists. Rediscovered in the 1970s, it has enjoyed continuing popularity ever since. The libretto was compiled by the composer's father, the music critic Julius Korngold, writing under the pseudonym 'Paul Schott', a combination of the name of the protagonist and the publishing house. A vivacious theatre group comes to liven up the gloomy city of Bruges (here, a symbol of death) and the widower Paul is forced to decide between the past and the present. Korngold was fascinated by this symbolic plot and created an iridescent orchestral score washed in vivid colours. A variety of operatic devices are intermingled as if viewed through a kaleidoscope: opulent melodic arias, advanced harmonies, psychoanalytic profundity and cinematic transitions oscillating between reality and dream worlds guarantee the continuing modernity of this work up to the present day.

Powder Her Face
Thomas Ad癡s and Philip Hensher's dazzlingly precocious chamber opera Powder Her Face propelled its composer to international attention after its premiere in 1995 and remains one of the most frequently performed British operas of the last two decades. Charting the glamorous rise and seedy fall of the notorious socialite beauty Margaret, Duchess of Argyll, the score is as witty, poignant, and memorable as the Dirty Duchess" herself, paying homage to the popular idioms of cabaret and tango, as well as to Weill, Berg, and Stravinsky."
