Description
Beautiful pieces for Organ and solo instrument by three Romantic-era composers
Andante Grazioso is by the great Belgian-American organist and composer Gaston M. Déthier, Professor of Piano and Organ at the Julliard School of Music in New York City. It is typical of his romantic, lyrical style and was first published in 1899 as an organ solo. Instrumental Parts included: Flute/Oboe/Violin; Viola; Clarinet in Bb
Legende , Op. 5, No. 2, was composed by Vierne as the second of two pieces for piano and cello or viola. It was first published in 1895. Instrumental Parts included: Flute/Oboe/Violin; Viola; Clarinet in Bb; Horn in F/English Horn
Prelude in G by Franck, is in his earlier style, and may have been discovered among his manuscripts some time after his death. It was published only thirty-two years later, in 1922. Originally titled Piece for Oboe and Piano, this charming and lyrical work is all but unknown. Its pure texture, range of but a tenth, and the absence of significant technical difficulties make it well suited for performance by either a young musician or an experienced artist. The tessitura lends itself to several instrumental possibilities – violin, viola, flute, oboe, or clarinet – all of which would be lovely and suitable choices.
All dynamic marking and phrasing is by the composer. The solo part has not been altered. The organ accompaniment, adapted by the editor, may be performed with or without pedals. Instrumental Parts included: Flute/Oboe/Violin/Viola; Clarinet in Bb; Clarinet in A
Publishers use a lot of words to describe what they sell, and we know it can be confusing. We've tried to be as clear as possible to make sure you get exactly what you are looking for. Below are descriptions of the terms that we use to describe the various formats that music often comes in.
Choral Score
A score for vocalists that only contains the vocal lines. The instrumental parts are not there for reference. Generally, cheaper than a vocal score and requires multiple copies for purchase.
Facsimile
Reproductions of the original hand-written scores from the composer.
Full Score
For ensemble music, this indicates that the edition contains all parts on a single system (there are not separate parts for each player). In larger ensembles, this is for the conductor.
Hardcover
Hardbound. Generally either linen-covered or half-leather.
Orchestral Parts
Similar to a wind set, this is a collection of parts. In the case of strings, the numbers listed are the number of copies included, though generally these are available individually (often with minimum quantities required).
Paperback
When publishers offer multiple bindings (e.g. hardcover) or study scores, this is the "standard" version. If you're planning to play the music, this is probably what you want.
Performance / Playing Score
A score of the music containing all parts on one system, intended for players to share. There are not separate parts for each player.
Set of Parts
For ensemble music, this indicates that there are separate individual parts for each player.
Solo Part with Piano Reduction
For solo pieces with orchestra, this is a version that contains a piano reduction of the orchestra parts. For piano pieces, two copies are typically needed for performance.
Study Score
A small (think choral size) copy of the complete score meant for studying, and not playing. They make great add-ons when learning concertos and small chamber works.
Vocal Score
A score prepared for vocalists that includes the piano/organ part or a reduction of the instrumental parts.
Wind Set
For orchestral music, this is a collection of wind and percussion parts. The specific quantities of each instrument are notated.
With Audio
In addition to the printed music, the edition contains recordings of the pieces. This may be an included CD, or access to files on the internet.
With / Without Fingering (Markings)
Some publishers prepare two copies - a pure Urtext edition that includes no fingering (or bowing) suggestions and a lightly edited version that includes a minimal number of editorial markings.
