Three of the most outstanding waltzes from Tchaikovsky's ballet
masterpiece have been thoughtfully arranged as a 15-minute dance
suite by Carl Simpson, who also prepared the new critical edition
of the complete ballet. The final waltz is the most familar, but
the two others offer quite different perspectives on the familar
dance form from the Russian master.
Newly edited and engraved study score for the original 1877 version
of Tchaikovsky's first ballet masterpiece. Includes Preface,
Synopsis, and Cast of Characters. This is the complete orchestral
score, not a piano reduction, based upon the composer's autograph,
the first edition issued by P. Jurgenson, and the score from
Tchaikovsky's complete works. Swan Lake, Tchaikovsky's first
venture into ballet, was only moderately successful in its first
production at Moscow's Bolshoi Theatre. Choreographer Julius
Reissinger's dances were not well received, and those of his
successor Joseph Peter Hansen fared no better. The ballet was
propelled into the permanent repertoire only after a brilliant
revival mounted by Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov in St. Petersburg
more than a year after Tchaikovsky's death from cholera. A new,
reasonably priced study score that will be invaluable to students,
conductors, music lovers and ballet aficionados everywhere.
Newly edited and engraved. The composer considered an orchestral
suite from his great ballet, but never got around to extracting it.
An unknown editor compiled the first version, which was issued by
Jurgenson in 1900. The Soviet state publishers produced their own
version in 1954, adding 3 dance movements and omitting the finale
from the original suite. This new score includes all the movements
found in the two different versions of the suite.
