Description:
It was not easy for Claude Debussy to complete his last important work, the Sonata for Violin and Piano. This is evidenced by the many surviving drafts and the fact that the cycle for which the sonata was originally intended remained unfinished. The composition process was accompanied by Debussy's progressive illness and the impressions of the First World War.
The first edition was published in the last year of Debussy's life and contained many rhythmic errors. Discrepancies between the small printed violin part in the piano score and the separate violin part pose problems that have shaped the sonata's reception history just as much as the non-autograph metronome markings: These issues are renegotiated in the present edition.
In addition to Debussy's sonata, this edition also includes arrangements by the American violinist Arthur Hartmann: "La fille aux cheveux de lin" and "Il pleure dans mon coeur"; these arrangements inspired Debussy to create his own arrangement of his well-known piano work "Minstrels" for violin and piano, which is also included.
