Summary of This Sheet Music
This sheet music in E minor (revised edition) is intended for cellists who wish to work on a repertoire piece with a complete piano accompaniment, both in lessons and rehearsals. Its strength lies in the presence of two distinct cello parts: one annotated (with fingerings) and the other unannotated. The part with fingerings allows for a quick approach to position choices, management of shifts, and anticipation of technical passages, while the unmarked part offers complete freedom to the performer, teacher, or advanced musician to develop their own solution.
The fingerings proposed by Claus Kanngiesser and Klaus Schilde provide valuable assistance in stabilizing the left hand, improving the fluidity of slurs, and securing register shifts, while maintaining musical logic (phrasing, bow direction, breathing). Thanks to the piano, this edition also promotes ensemble work: rhythmic setup, listening to harmonies, sound balance, and relative intonation. The editorial work by Johannes Behr and Egon Voss aims for a reliable and readable presentation, particularly appreciated during sight-reading sessions, audition preparation, or chamber music practice.
