Complete Songs without Words for Piano (Dover Classical Piano Music)

A standard, beautiful, dover edition (I dont understand why some previous commentators complain).Edited by Julius Rietz, who was certainly a very qualified person for the task, as testified in Wiki:August Wilhelm Julius Rietz (28 December 1812, Berlin – 12 September 1877,[1] Dresden) was a German composer, conductor and cellist. He was a teacher among whose students were Woldemar Bargiel, Salomon Jadassohn and Arthur Sullivan. He also edited many works by Felix Mendelssohn for publication.He studied the cello under Schmidt, Bernhard Romberg, and Gans. At 16, he joined the orchestra of the Königstädter Theater, for which he wrote the music to Holtei's play Lorbeerbaum und Bettelstab.In 1834, he was appointed assistant conductor at the Düsseldorf Opera under Mendelssohn, whom he succeeded the following year. In 1847, he was called to Leipzig as theatre kapellmeister and conductor of the Singakademie. In 1848, he succeeded Mendelssohn as conductor of the Gewandhaus concerts and as teacher of composition at the Conservatory.He was called to Dresden in 1860 to succeed Reissiger as court kapellmeister. Here he conducted the opera and afterwards undertook the direction of the royal conservatory. He died at Dresden.

Just what my husband wanted.

Print is faint and blurry in many places. I have many Dover scores and the other ones have all been good.

So glad I bought this music. Thank you!

Of course I love Mendelsshon, but this version is not very easy to read, specially for kids, but finiancial wise.

Molto delicate e forniscono spaccati della vita di mendelssohn stesso che appunto le scriveva come fossero pagine di un suo diario personale. Da suonare, sempre.

Ces romances sont très belles, je suis ravie les avoir complètes pour ce prix!
