Haydn, Franz Joseph: Selected Piano Sonatas, Volume II
(Feder, Georg)
With our two-volume edition of selected works, we would like to introduce pianists to the most interesting of the altogether 52 sonatas.
Volume II of this edition contains nine sonatas from volume III of Henle's three-volume Urtext publication of the complete Haydn piano sonatas. They include the pieces written in 1784 for Princess Marie Esterhßzy, as well as the last three major sonatas from the London years. Four sonatas in two movements are also included in this volume, since Haydn, in his later years, returned more and more often to the two-movement form of his early works. The chronological order of the edition makes it easier to trace the development of Haydn's piano style.
G. Henle Publishers stands for Urtext sheet music of the highest quality. Musicians around the world, both amateurs and professionals, can fully rely on our sheet music of what is called “classical music”. Our Urtext editions not only provide the undistorted and authoritative musical text but are also aesthetically pleasing, optimised for practical use and extremely durable. And then there is the strong, distinctive blue profile: (almost) all of our Urtext editions are bound in the characteristic blue cardboard.
Ever since Günter Henle founded our publishing house, we have concentrated almost exclusively on the scholarly preparation of Urtext editions of music from the Baroque onwards. This is why, as the world's undisputed market leader, we have the greatest knowledge about Urtext and the most comprehensive Urtext catalogue, comprising over 1,250 titles to date.
