Book Reviews of Nocturnes and Barcarolles for Solo Piano (Dover Music for Piano)
Book Review: Great music, but missing one of Fauré's best
Summary: 5 Stars
Of course pianists should have this wonderful book, just don't assume it's complete. Fauré actually wrote a thirteenth Nocturne (in B minor) and a thirteenth Barcarolle (in C major), neither of which is included here. Both of these are characteristic late Fauré, but the Nocturne #13 is particularly not to be missed. I was just playing it over tonight and was amazed by the dark drama of the music. It's as Fauré's biographer Jessica Duchen said, that it seems to stare death in the face.Both the Nocturne #13 and the suave, tranquil Barcarolle #13 are available individually from Masters Music Publications, and I would suggest that pianists supplement this book with both of those works to make a complete set of Fauré's nocturnes and barcarolles.
Summary of Nocturnes and Barcarolles for Solo Piano (Dover Music for Piano)
The music of Gabriel Fauré (1845?1924) is an important link between the innovations of late Romanticism and the experimentation of the early-20th century. These 12 nocturnes and 12 barcarolles, composed over a span of 40 years, document his move from Romanticism to the frontiers of 20th-century music. Reprinted from authoritative French editions.
