Arnold Schönberg
Suite op. 25
Schönberg’s Suite op. 25 of 1923 refers to pre-classical forms in its movement titles Präludium, Gavotte–Musette, Intermezzo, Menuett–Trio and Gigue, yet at the same time it was the first work to be based entirely on a twelve-tone row. But anyone who believes that emotions can be left out of this completely new-sounding music is mistaken: Schönberg requires the player’s full commitment, reflected in a whole palette of new articulation markings which he added to the musical text in order to ensure a nuanced and expressive performance. A challenge for all pianists! In the Henle Urtext edition, the Israeli-American pianist Shai Wosner, a true connoisseur of the Suite, provides indispensable assistance with the fingering to help decode this magnificent work. The Henle Urtext edition publishes this modern classic in a new, generously laid out music setting.

Pianodao, 2022Shai Wosner is equally helpful and informative with his notes and fingerings for the iconic Suite Op. 25. … The composer’s own performance hints for articulation, ornamentation, tempo and metronome markings are helpfully reproduced in the preface. As it is always the case with Henle, presentation is immediate and arresting. Strongly recommended.
