The
Monn and Schoenberg concertos...
Hiya everyone, it's me again.. and
guess what I am going to post about... ...CONCERTOS!!!! what a
suprise, eh? 
So
boys & girls, what do you think about the Monn and Schoenberg
concertos? The Schoenberg concerto seems to be a free transcription
of a Monn Harpsichord concerto. Are they nice? Easy/difficult?
Do
you like them?
Have a good time all,
\Daniel

Re: The

The Schoenberg Concerto is a pretty
hard piece, no? It doesn't get played much. The real Monn cello
concerto is apparently one of Monn's best pieces and a fine part of
our cello concerto repertoire. It's not too difficult; harder than
Vivaldi Concertos but less so than Haydn C. I've not yet played it
myself, but have had high school students make very good
presentations of the piece. It's published with piano reduction and
in full score with parts. Edition Kunzelman, if memory serves
correctly.

Ahh ok.. I think the piano reduction
of the Monn actually was made by Schoenberg. Apparently he dug up
older music and got it published when he was low on
money..
Easier then the Haydn C? That sounds
really interesting for me then. I'll check it out as soon as I get
some time.

Don't
get them mixed up......
The Schoenberg Cello Concerto, as
you observed, is a Schoenbergization of a Monn harpsichord concerto.
Dedicated to Casals, was it?
The Monn Cello Concerto is a
different piece, available in a 1974 edition from Eulenberg (not
Kunzelman as I misstated in the other post) prepared by Oliver Nagy.
I don't think Schoenberg was involved with it......

Ok.. but the reduction of the Monn
concerto that I can get from our national library is by
Schoenberg..
have a look at http://www.schoenberg.at/6_archiv/music/works/no_op/compositions_no_op_instr_e.htm
and
you see that he had something to do with the 'real' Monn cello
concerto.
I won't get them mixed up!
For
your interest Zambo, I am spending this afternoon notating a Cello
concerto in D from 1741 by the Swedish 18th century composer
Ferdinand Zellbell (one of his teachers was Telemann). There is one
recording of it on Musica Sveciae, but to my knowledge the sheet
music has never been published. The original manuscript is at out
national music library and I am working with a photocopy of it.
There is also a set of handwritten parts written out in the 1940s,
but nothing more.
The concerto seem rather nice so for, it
really could have been worse hehe
I really
enjoy writing it in.
