{"product_id":"franck-cello-sonata-in-amaj-ba","title":"Franck Cello Sonata In Amaj BA","description":"\u003cp\u003eCesar Francks Sonata for Piano and Violin is one of the most treasured works in the violin repertoire, a masterpiece of cyclic form with a gracefulness and expressive force almost paradigmatic for the age of musical Romanticism.  This work was composed in 1886 and was dedicated to the Belgian violinist and composer Eugne Ysae.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFrancks friend, the cellist Jules Desart, was so impressed when he heard the Violin Sonata performed at the Socit nationale de musique in Paris that he adapted the work for his instrument.  This arrangement was first published in 1887 by inserting the cello part into the piano score of the original edition. For this purpose the piano score had received a new cover and the publisher had expanded the title of the composition to Sonate pour piano et violon ou violoncelle.  This version by the cellist Jules Delsart for piano and violoncello is the only arrangement of the work authorized by the composer and its first edition represents the main source for Brenreiters new scholarly-critical publication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBrenreiters new edition also includes a separate movement, Mlancolie, first published after Francks death in 1911, again for the same instrumentation, piano and violin or violoncello.  This short piece is based on a solfge exercise and was written at the height of the composers creative powers, at about the same time as his famous violin sonata.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe edition is rounded off by an informative text on the genesis and reception history of the two compositions (Ger\/Fr\/Eng), a complete list of sources, editorial notes and a Critical Commentary (Eng).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003ePioneering new Urtext edition\u003cbr\u003e\n Informative text on the genesis and reception history of the two compositions (Ger\/Fr\/Eng)\u003cbr\u003e\n Detailed Critical Commentary (Eng)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlso available:\u003cbr\u003e\nSonata; Andantino quietoso Op.6; Mlancolie for Piano \u0026amp; Violin | BA9425.\u003cbr\u003e\nSonata arranged for Piano \u0026amp; Viola | BA10918. \u003cbr\u003e\nSonata in A major arranged for Piano \u0026amp; Flute | BA8734\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45728603767094,"sku":null,"price":14.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0786\/9402\/3478\/products\/BA10917_1.jpg?v=1695834995","url":"https:\/\/southlondonmusicshop.co.uk\/products\/franck-cello-sonata-in-amaj-ba","provider":"South London Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
