Summary of This Score
This new Peters edition of Gabriel Fauré's Barcarolles follows the same exacting approach as that undertaken for the Nocturnes. The editorial work is based on thorough and cross-checked research of available materials, aiming to produce a musical text as close as possible to the composer's intentions. Among the sources used are not only printed editions but also particularly rare and enlightening documents, such as piano rolls played by Fauré himself. These sound testimonies, compared with copies corrected in his own hand, allow for a refined reading of phrasing, articulation, and musical continuity details.
The Barcarolles hold a major place in Fauré's piano oeuvre: they feature his fluid writing, his unique sense of harmonic color, and a wide variety of moods, from the most intimate singing to more virtuosic outbursts. For the pianist, this score provides a solid working tool, encouraging a nuanced and stylistically informed interpretation. It is especially suitable for those wishing to deepen their understanding of Fauré's language with a reliable edition designed for practical use and artistic rigor.
