Joseph Haydn : Divertimento “Il maestro e lo scolare”, Hob. XVIIa:1

Piano Duet (1 Piano, 4 Hands) – Classical Period

Description:

Joseph Haydn's humorous “Divertimento à due per il Clavicembalo solo” (Divertimento for two on the solo harpsichord), or “Il maestro e lo scolare” (The teacher and the student), was written at a time when works for piano four-hands were still the exception. Instead of the typical “Primo” and “Secondo” parts, the oldest copies use the terms “La parte del Maestro” (The Teacher’s part) and “dello Scolare” (The Student’s part). Haydn's wit constantly surfaces; for instance, in the idea that the teacher plays first, then the pupil, and in the last bars of the variation movement the hands of the players cross over without there being any musical necessity for this. This G. Henle Urtext edition is a revised version based on the volume that has appeared in the Haydn Complete Edition, making it an excellent work for educational purposes.

Product Features:

• Unique Pedagogical Work: This is Haydn’s sole original work for piano four-hands, making it historically and pedagogically significant.
• Humorous and Witty: The piece is filled with Haydn's signature wit, especially in the dialogue and technical gestures between the "Maestro" and the "Scolare."
• Authoritative Urtext Edition: The musical text is based on the authoritative Haydn Complete Edition, ensuring scholarly accuracy.
• Expert Fingering: Includes fingerings by Christine Schornsheim, a specialist in early music, suitable for both fortepiano and modern piano performance.

Performance Tips:

Duo pianists should approach this piece with wit and charm, emphasizing the humorous "dialogue" between the teacher's and the student's parts. The initial sections should clearly delineate who is playing the main theme ("Maestro") and who is responding ("Scolare"). The performers must coordinate precisely, especially in the final variation movement where the players' hands cross over unexpectedly, a visual joke intended by Haydn. This work is an excellent vehicle for developing strong ensemble skills and rhythmic playfulness.

Contents:

• Divertimento in F “Il maestro e lo scolare” for piano four hands Hob. XVIIa:1

約瑟夫・海頓 : 嬉遊曲「老師與學生」，Hob. XVIIa:1

鋼琴四手聯彈（單鋼琴）– 古典時期

簡介:

約瑟夫・海頓（Joseph Haydn）幽默的《給單獨大鍵琴的雙人嬉遊曲》，或稱「老師與學生」（Il maestro e lo scolare），創作於鋼琴四手聯彈作品仍屬罕見的時期。最古老的抄本中並未使用典型的「第一部」和「第二部」，而是標註為「La parte del Maestro」（老師的部分）和「dello Scolare」（學生的部分）。海頓的機智在樂曲中不斷浮現；例如，樂曲中老師先彈，學生再跟著彈，以及在變奏樂章的最後幾小節，演奏者的雙手會不必要地交叉，形成一種視覺上的幽默。這份G. Henle原典版是基於《海頓作品全集》的卷本修訂而成，是極佳的教育作品，同時也能為出色的視奏者帶來極大的樂趣。

產品特點:

• 獨特的教學作品: 這是海頓唯一一部原創的鋼琴四手聯彈作品，具有重要的歷史和教學意義。
• 幽默風趣: 樂曲充滿了海頓標誌性的機智，特別體現在「老師」與「學生」兩部分之間的對話和技術安排。
• 權威原典版: 樂譜文本基於權威的《海頓作品全集》，確保了學術上的準確性。
• 專家指法: 包含早期音樂專家克莉絲汀·紹恩斯海姆（Christine Schornsheim）提供的指法，適用於古鋼琴和現代鋼琴的演奏。

演奏提示:

雙鋼琴家在演奏此曲時應展現機智和魅力，強調「師生對話」中幽默的成分。樂曲開頭應清楚區分誰在彈奏主旋律（「老師」），誰在回應（「學生」）。演奏者必須精確協調，尤其是在最後的變奏樂章中，雙手會意外地交叉，這是海頓刻意設計的視覺笑點。這部作品是培養紮實合奏技巧和富有節奏感的趣味性的絕佳素材。

收錄曲目:

• F大調嬉遊曲「老師與學生」，Hob. XVIIa:1（鋼琴四手聯彈版）

作曲家與編者介紹:

約瑟夫・海頓（Joseph Haydn, 1732–1809）是古典時期的核心人物，以其機智和結構天才而聞名。這首嬉遊曲展現了他輕鬆幽默的一面。本版編者是約瑟夫·海頓研究所的研究員桑賈·格爾拉赫（Sonja Gerlach），指法則由著名的羽管鍵琴家和古鋼琴家克莉絲汀·紹恩斯海姆提供。
