M. Ravel: Sonata in four parts for violin and cello
Instrument line-up: String Duet (Violin and Cello)
Composer: Maurice Ravel
Publisher: Bärenreiter Verlag
Description:
In 1920, Maurice Ravel was asked by his publisher Durand to contribute to an edition of the magazine 'La Revue musicale' dedicated to Claude Debussy. An insert should contain the first movement of Ravel's Sonata for violin and cello, as well as other contributions by Debussy's friends, which included Stravinsky, Satie, Dukas, Bartók, de Falla and others. This first movement, the autograph of which has disappeared, subsequently developed into a large-scale, four-movement chamber music work.
This scientific-critical edition - the first of this masterpiece - presents the composition in two performance scores. The foreword provides information on the history of the work, in which rehearsals with the violinist Hélène Jourdan-Morhange and the cellist Maurice Maréchal play an important role.
The sources for this new edition were the engraving, the personal score autographs (with earlier versions of some passages) that were used in the rehearsal, and the scores of the first edition owned by Jourdan-Morhange and Maréchal, the additions to Jourdan-Morhange contain. The appendix contains the original fingerings of the musicians, which are not reproduced in the first edition, and which are an important document for performance practice in the early 20th century.
- With 2 playing scores in the format 25.5 x 32.5 cm
- The violoncello part does not allow page turning in the first movement; the present edition therefore contains an additional cello part in reduced print, which represents the first movement on a double page without a page turner
- Foreword to the history of the work (German / English / French)
- Critical report, facsimile pages and appendix
