Summary of This Book
Published in the context of the "Mendelssohn Year," this edition offers an ambitious and coherent approach to the composer's piano works. The goal is clear: to provide a unique Urtext edition in its scope, gathering in two thick volumes nearly all of his piano compositions, within a homogeneous editorial set.
Beyond simply grouping the pieces, the value of this book lies in the quality of the editorial work. The scores have been prepared with the utmost care to offer a reliable musical text, useful both for daily study and concert preparation. The detailed commentaries provide real reading comfort: they illuminate editorial choices, place the works in their context, and take into account current knowledge derived from research.
This new publication also fits within a collection logic: it enriches the existing material, notably complementing the already available volume "Songs Without Words." For pianists wishing to work on Mendelssohn's most frequently played pieces, it is also useful to know that several major cycles (op. 14, 16, 54, and 72) exist separately in editions with a more accessible format. Here, the ambition is different: to offer a complete and demanding overview of Mendelssohn's pianistic universe.
