Cello & Piano Pejtsik

Two volumes entitled Cello Meets Piano, edited and published by arpad Pejtsik, were issued many years ago by the Könemann Music Budapest.

The first edition was quickly sold out, and no further editions followed. EMB has undertaken to issue a new edition entitled Cello And Piano, with the content unchanged.

The two volumes contain a selection from 200 years of music. Eight Baroque sonatas are included, apart from the famous D minor one by Corelli there are some that are appearing in a modern edition for the first time in 300 years. In addition to cyclical works (Haydn: Sonatina, Mozart: Divertimento, Vivaldi: Concerto) and sets of variations (Beethoven, Tartini) there are many shorter pieces as well, not only the famous minuets by Boccherini, Mozart and Beethoven but also works published for the first time here. Virtuoso pieces are represented by Goltermann's Etude-caprice and Jenkinson's Dance of the sylphids, the lighter kind include Joplin's Ragtime.
