Violin and Piano with marked and unmarked string parts

Publisher: Henle
Voicing: Score and Parts
Format: Softcover
Composer: Gabriel Faure
Editor: Dominik Rahmer

Alongside weighty chamber music works such as piano quartets and violin sonatas, Gabriel Faure also wrote several charming miniatures for violin and piano. Among these is his Berceuse op. 16 in D major, which fast became one of his best-known pieces following its first performance in 1880; countless arrangements were published. Its melodic subject matter and colourful writing for the piano are reminiscent of Faure's Violin Sonata No. 1 in A major, which he had composed shortly before. This Urtext edition is the first edition to make use of the autograph sketches of the original version for violin, as well as of the manuscript of Faure's own orchestration.
