Selected Piano Works
This Urtext edition of JanácekÂ's works includes lesser-known piano pieces and miniatures from his late years. They complete our picture of Janácek the piano composer, best known for the cycles "On an Overgrown Path" and "In the Mists". The late miniatures, entered in the album of Kamila Stösslová, reveal his compositional style at its most concise.
The editor Ondrej Pivoda, the curator of the Moravian State Museum in Brno, has taken the autograph manuscripts as his principal sources while consulting other accessible sources, such as historical editions and copyistÂ's manuscripts. This series of piano miniatures appears for the first time in a scholarly-critical edition. Contents: Thema con variazioni, Ej, danaj!, Moravian Dances: Dance from Celadná and Pilky, Music for Club Swinging, Piano Miniatures: In Remembrance, Moderato, untitled, To the Mrstik Brothers and Reminiscence, Compositions from a Newspaper: Christ the Lord Was Born, Con moto and Andante, From the Autograph Book for Kamila Stösslová: untitled, So That One Could Never Return, I Am Waiting for You and The Golden Ring.
