Bohuslav Martinu
Omschrijving
Despite the extraordinary significance attributed to Bohuslav Martinu's 14 short Piano pieces entitled Puppets, surprisingly little is known about the exact time and circumstances of their composition.It is however certain that these are the first works by Martinu which transcended his initial attempts at composition and they quickly found a publisher. Thanks to their lasting popularity particularly with youngpianists, they were published in numerous editions.
The pieces take the characters of Italian commedia dell'arte as their theme: Pierrot, Colombine and Harlequin. Also included are dance and ball scenes, as well asscenesfrom the 'private lives' of the puppets. The three editions of Puppets were composed between 1912 and 1925 in reverse order. The works all differ from one another, beginning with different aesthetic starting points andending with Piano writing which gradually matures. Now the cycle is published for the first time in one volume.
