Description
In our successful and extensive Emilie Mayer Edition, we now present overtures and a piano concerto by Europe's greatest composer, who occupies a singular position in the musical world of her time, and indeed, no other composer of her generation allowed herself to be so little impressed by patriarchal gender conceit and rigid role attributions as she! Her Faust Overture was very popular at the time; there is evidence of several performances in the early 1880s. Although it is in sonata form, it is overlaid with unusual dramaturgical aspects related to the subject. Her Piano Concerto in B flat major (as far as is known, Emilie Mayer's only concertante composition) is a prime example of an individually handled classical approach.
