Composed two years before the end of the Russo-Turkish War (1877–1878), the piece is a grand and striking march that juxtaposes two musical themes, symbolizing the conflict between Russia and the Ottoman Empire. The resolute and truthful Russian theme contrasts with the “uncertain” Ottoman motif, which alludes to the Turkish March from Beethoven’s The Ruins of Athens.

Концерт, написанный в 1882 году, является одним из ранних крупных сочинений Аренского, созданным во время его обучения в Петербургской консерватории под руководством Н. А. Римского-Корсакова.

Written in 1882, the concerto is one of Arensky's early major works, composed during his studies at the St. Petersburg Conservatory under N. A. Rimsky-Korsakov. The work, in three movements (typically Allegro, Andante, Allegro), features Romantic expressiveness, a virtuosic piano part, and orchestral color. The arrangement for two pianos enables chamber performance while preserving the work's dramatic character and technical complexity.

As a product of a regional state printing house with a very limited print run of 500 copies, this sheet music is a valuable artifact of Soviet musical and literary history, capturing a specific moment of collaboration between a composer and a poet from the Silver Age transitioning into the Soviet epoch.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43963050819626,"sku":"EB-306336163877","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/57_aa48636f-9a26-4906-a009-b425208ec31b.jpg?v=1768160606"},{"product_id":"kreisler-liebesleid-loves-sorrow-1939-крейслер-рахманинов-муки-любви-ноты","title":"Kreisler, F.

The selection highlights a sophisticated blend of Western European classical masterpieces and popular international song traditions, curated specifically for domestic performers. Included in this lot is Richard Strauss’s transcendent lied \"Morgen!\" from the \"Vocal repertoire – foreign composers\" series, demonstrating the continued appreciation for late-Romantic German Lieder. The collection also features a rare variant of the \"Gypsy Song\" (Habanera) from Georges Bizet's immortal opera Carmen, meticulously tailored for high voice and piano accompaniment. Complementing these operatic and art song staples are two lighter, yet culturally significant, pieces translated into Russian by the prolific poet Boris Timofeev: an old French chanson titled \"Birds\" and a classic Neapolitan-style song by Ernesto De Curtis, \"Sing to me\" (Canta pe' me).\u003cbr\u003eThe physical presence of these scores reflects the transitional period of Soviet music publishing, where Triton operated with a degree of artistic independence before being fully absorbed into the state monopoly. These editions from 1933 and 1934 are characteristic of Leningrad's vibrant musical life, ensuring that world-class vocal music remained accessible to conservatory students, professional singers, and domestic music makers alike. The adaptations by Boris Timofeev are particularly noteworthy, as they illustrate the Soviet practice of domesticating foreign popular music to suit the Russian-speaking audience while maintaining the stylistic essence of the original French and Neapolitan traditions. For bibliophiles, vocalists, and historians of Soviet musical culture, this lot serves as a vital primary source, capturing a brief window of cosmopolitan musical exchange during the interwar period.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43963097776170,"sku":"EB-306626910360","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/57_672b2ab4-747e-4804-8077-f99ebca08dab.jpg?v=1768161073"},{"product_id":"lot-of-5-triton-publishing-sheet-music-piano-scores-1932-bach-godowsky-yudina","title":"Lot of 5 rare piano editions (Leningrad: Triton Publishing House, 1929–1935).

These editions reflect a period of intense artistic refinement, where the boundary between Baroque tradition and Modernist interpretation was actively explored. Notably, the lot includes transcriptions by Alexander Siloti—Liszt’s pupil and Rachmaninoff’s cousin—and the hyper-virtuosic \"Renaissance\" arrangements by Leopold Godowsky, which were highly sought after by the elite conservatory circles of the era.\u003cbr\u003eThe physical identity of these scores is defined by the distinctive, often minimalist cover designs characteristic of the Triton imprint, which operated as a private-public cooperative before its absorption into State control.

First premiered in 1923, Daisi (meaning \"Twilight\" or \"Sunset\") is widely considered a masterpiece of lyric-dramatic opera that successfully fused traditional Georgian folk polyphony with the rigorous structures of classical European operatic art. The text provides a deep dive into the internal logic of the Georgian national character through the arrangement of its tragic plot, set against the backdrop of 18th-century Georgia, focusing on the ill-fated love triangle between Malkhaz, Maro, and Kiazo amidst the heroic defense of the homeland. This prestigious post-war edition is particularly significant for its bilingual presentation, featuring the Georgian text alongside a Russian translation by M.

Published by Sabchota Sakartvelo in a large 28×21 cm format, the book was intended for both theatrical practitioners and researchers of musicology, documenting the canonization of Paliashvili’s work in the mid-20th century.

Composed in 1893 as part of his \"Six Romances\" cycle, the work is set to a poem by Aleksey Pleshcheyev, which is a masterful Russian translation of a verse by the iconic Ukrainian poet Taras Shevchenko. The piece is a hallmark of Rachmaninoff’s early period, showcasing his ability to infuse simple lyrical structures with profound emotional depth. The text provides a deep dive into the internal logic of the dramatic romance, including the arrangement of a somber, minor-key piano introduction that sets a tone of tragic inevitability, followed by a vocal line of great melodic breadth and expressive sorrow.\u003cbr\u003eReleased by Muzgiz during a time of rigorous standardization in Soviet musical life, this 3-page score was specifically intended for soprano voice. The music demands a high degree of vocal control and \"pure intonation\" to navigate the subtle shifts in dynamics that underscore the themes of unrequited or ill-fated love. The piano accompaniment is notably characteristic of Rachmaninoff’s style, providing a rich harmonic foundation that acts as an equal partner to the singer. With a limited print run of only 2,000 copies, this 1934 publication is a valued primary source for collectors of pre-war musical imprints and scholars focusing on the historical performance practice of Rachmaninoff’s vocal works.

Composed between 1890 and 1893 as part of his Six Romances cycle, this piece is set to the evocative poetry of Afanasy Fet, a master of lyrical intimacy. The romance is a quintessential early Rachmaninoff work, characterized by its emotional intensity and a piano part that transcends simple accompaniment to become a secondary melodic voice.

Released by the newly established Music Department of Narkompros (N.K.P.), this score represents one of the earliest Soviet efforts to maintain the continuity of the Russian piano school following the 1917 Revolution. The cycle, originally composed in 1896, consists of six pieces that demonstrate Rachmaninoff’s mastery of the late-Romantic idiom.

Originally composed around 1906 for piano four-hands after a trip to Italy, the piece was inspired by a folk melody Rachmaninoff heard from a street organist. This specific solo piano arrangement was crafted by Alexander Ziloti, Rachmaninoff’s cousin and influential teacher, whose transcriptions helped define the performance style of the era. The text provides a deep dive into the internal logic of the polka’s virtuoso structure, including the arrangement of its rhythmic accents, the characteristic \"Italian\" melodic ornamentation, and the adaptation of orchestral-like textures for a single pianist.\u003cbr\u003eA significant feature of this publication is its association with the \"Music to the Masses\" (Muzyka massam) series, appearing as issue No. 70.

Composed in 1903, a year of immense creative transformation for Scriabin, this work encapsulates the shift toward the mystical and complex harmonic structures that would define his later career. The music is characterized by a sophisticated lyricism and an intricate, almost fluid tonal architecture. The publication is of exceptional artistic interest due to its cover designed by Ivan Fedorovich Rerberg, the renowned architect of Moscow's Kiyevsky Railway Station. Rerberg’s graphic work for the Music Sector of Gosizdat during the early Soviet years is highly prized for its elegant synthesis of neoclassical and modernist elements, providing a visual counterpoint to the ethereal and visionary nature of Scriabin's compositions.\u003cbr\u003eAcross its 9 pages, the edition reflects the meticulous standards of pre-war Russian music engraving, despite the material constraints of the early 1920s.

In Russian.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 1928 musical edition, produced during the late NEP period by the Music Sector of the State Publishing House, features the first six preludes of Alexander Scriabin’s celebrated Op. 11 cycle. Composed between 1893 and 1896, these preludes are essential artifacts of the Russian Silver Age, marking the transition from traditional Romanticism to Scriabin's unique harmonic system. The publication is of particular aesthetic value due to its cover design by Ivan Fedorovich Rerberg, a distinguished architect and graphic artist whose neoclassical and modernist sensibilities define the visual identity of early Soviet high culture. The text provides a deep dive into the internal logic of the cycle’s opening, including the arrangement of tonal shifts from the energetic C major \"Vivace\" to the somber, brooding \"Allegro\" in B minor.\u003cbr\u003eAcross its 13 pages, the edition presents a meticulously engraved score designed for professional conservatory use. Each prelude serves as a distinct psychological miniature: the lyrical \"Allegretto\" of No. 2, the playful \"Vivo\" of No. 3, and the deeply expressive, melancholic \"Lento\" of No. 4. Rerberg's involvement elevates this sheet music from a mere pedagogical tool to a collector's item of graphic art, reflecting the period's commitment to synthesizing fine art and music. With a limited print run of 2,000 copies and printed on the characteristically fragile paper of the late 1920s, this softcover volume is a significant primary source for researchers of Scriabin’s performance history and the evolution of Soviet book and music design. It remains a sophisticated testament to the intellectual and aesthetic rigor of the pre-Stalinist cultural landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43963132346410,"sku":"EB-306334415526","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/57_bb088f22-6bf8-4f63-abd3-6d8948fa905c.jpg?v=1768161696"},{"product_id":"scriabin-ten-mazurkas-piano-op-3-sheet-music-1933-скрябин-десять-мазурок-ноты","title":"Scriabin, A.

In Russian.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 1934 musical edition, issued by the State Music Publishing House (Muzgiz), features the first five pieces from Alexander Scriabin’s Ten Mazurkas, Op. 3. Composed between 1888 and 1890 during his formative years at the Moscow Conservatory, these works are a profound tribute to the influence of Frédéric Chopin, yet they already reveal the seeds of Scriabin’s unique harmonic language and refined melodic sensibility. The cycle reinterprets the traditional Polish dance through a Russian lens, blending rhythmic vitality with deep lyricism. The text provides a deep dive into the internal logic of Scriabin's early style, including the arrangement of the energetic B minor Mazurka (No. 1), the graceful and light F-sharp minor (No. 2), and the poignant, melancholic \"Doloroso\" in D-sharp minor (No. 5), which foreshadows the emotional intensity of his later masterpieces.\u003cbr\u003ePublished in the mid-1930s, this edition is a significant rarity due to its exceptionally low print run of only 750 copies. During this period, Soviet music publishing focused on creating high-quality pedagogical materials for the nation’s growing conservatory system, and this volume served as a primary source for students mastering the nuances of late-Romantic piano performance. Each mazurka in this notebook—from the lively G minor (No. 3) to the song-like E major (No. 4)—requires a sophisticated understanding of rubato and dynamic contrast. This 21-page softcover publication is a valuable find for collectors of Scriabiniana, documenting the early creative steps of one of the 20th century’s most enigmatic composers and providing a tangible link to the Russian piano school of the pre-war era.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43963132411946,"sku":"EB-306334422379","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/57_fbfc512e-bcbb-4421-ac4e-f90f3b29c5dc.jpg?v=1768161699"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/collections\/Sheet_Music_Scores_Collection_2.png?v=1771324740","url":"https:\/\/stanzararebooks.com\/collections\/sheet-music-scores.oembed","provider":"Stanza Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
