Summary of This Score

This score brings together César Franck's "Prélude, Choral et Fugue" in a version for solo piano. A true monument of French Romanticism, the piece is distinguished by its highly structured architecture and its sense of melody: the Prélude establishes momentum and breathing, the Choral deepens harmonic color and chordal verticality, while the Fugue develops demanding counterpoint that highlights the clarity of the voices.

Thanks to its musicological edition prepared by Ernst-Günter Heinemann, this volume is intended for pianists seeking a solid foundation for study, lessons, or performance. It is a particularly relevant score for refining tone, balance of layers, line shaping, and management of harmonic tensions, while consolidating reading skills and endurance over an expansive form. The bound cover provides real comfort for daily use, especially during rehearsals.
