Alban Berg's String Quartet can be considered to be one of the founding works of the Second Viennese School. Already composed in 1910 and first published in 1920, it was the last composition the 25-year-old wrote under the tutelage of Arnold Schoenberg, who admired "the fullness and unconstraint of his musical language, the strength and sureness of its presentation, its careful working and significant originality". Even today the extremely complex work places the highest technical demands on the interpreters; for this reason Henle's edition contains parts that are especially good to play from, in which each musician can also follow what is going on in the other parts.

Composer: Evgeny Kissin

Redolent of the work of Dmitri Shostakovich in its musical language, Evgeny Kissin's String Quartet op. 3 comprises four strongly contrasting movements: on the heels of the stately "Adagio liberamente" comes an extremely lively "Allegro inquieto" that wanders between dynamic extremes and bristles with glissandi. The third movement, marked "Largo drammatico", is sustained by an insistent, heavily rhythmic dotted motive, while the final movement shifts from the introduction, marked "Pensierosamente, ma mantenendo strettamente il ritmo puntato", into a brilliant finale, "Molto allegro e sarcastico", that is suffused with elements of fugato and like all movements, informed by dodecaphonic harmonies. This demanding fifteen-minute work was composed in 2015-16 and recorded for the first time on Nimbus Records by the Kopelman Quartet.

Editor: Kathrin Kirsch

“Harmony, bliss, music of Raphaelesque beauty! and yet in its simplicity, how wonderfully artistically everything is done.” This is how Theodor Billroth enthused about the first String Quartet op. 88 by his friend Johannes Brahms. No wonder that it soon won the hearts of audiences and musicians alike. This chamber music work was written in spring 1882 as usual put to the test in various preview performances and revised until the autumn. Here, Brahms placed himself fully in the tradition of the Mozart quintets, also choosing the same scoring with two violins, two violas and a cello. With an edition of the performing parts and a matching study score based on the text of the Brahms Complete Edition, G. Henle Verlag is now the first to publish an Urtext edition of this jewel of the quintet repertoire.

String Parts
Composer: Johannes Brahms
Editor: Kathrin Kirsch

As with its companion work op. 88 from 1882, Brahms’s second string quintet was supposed to be completed in the relaxed atmosphere of a summer in Bad Ischl, but eight years later. The work’s first technical try-out in Vienna in October 1890, which Brahms described to his friend Clara Schumann as “not displeasing”, was followed by a fine-tuning of the work in close dialogue with musical friends such as Joseph Joachim before Brahms sent score and parts to his publisher Simrock at the year's end. With its at times orchestral texture and stirring, typically Brahmsian rhythms, this cheerful work early on won the hearts of listeners and players alike, despite presenting the latter with some challenges. This new Henle Urtext edition is based on the New Brahms Complete Edition, for which editor Kathrin Kirsch has consulted all the autograph sources and first editions. With parts that have judiciously set page turns and cue-notes to facilitate performance, it offers the best foundation for approaching this jewel of Brahms's chamber music.

STRINGS
Composer: Johannes Brahms
Editor: Katrin Eich

Brahms's First String Sextet became very popular after its publication in 1861, yet his publisher Simrock still hesitated when the composer offered him a second such work in 1865, "in the same cheerful mood". So Brahms made overtures to other publishers, but thenSimrock finally agreed to take it on. The critics were initially rather sceptical towards this Sextet op. 36, but Brahms's friends thoroughly approved of it. Clara Schumann praised its accomplished motivic work, while others enthused about its magical sound colours. This practical edition by Katrin Eich, based on the Brahms Complete Edition, now offers performers the opportunity to form their own opinion, whether in performance or by perusing our study edition. The parts include player-friendly cue notes and have excellent page-turns.

Suffs is the Tony Award®-winning musical that's making history on Broadway! Crafted by the supremely talented Shaina Taub, she's shattered ceilings by becoming the first woman to single-handedly snag Tony Awards for both Best Book and Best Score in the same year. Beyond its Tony Award® glory, Suffs has clinched the title of Best Musical from the Outer Critics Circle, bagged a pair of Drama Desk Awards including one for Best Score, and it's been hailed as the season's most heart-stirring musical by the Chicago Tribune.

This musical dives into the lives of the suffragist women, affectionately known as “Suffs.” These women weren't just intellectual giants in their pursuit for the vote–they were complex beings, marked by their persistence, humor, and the fiery passion driving their cause. Suffs unfolds the tapestry of their camaraderie, the setbacks that tested them, and showcases the push-pull dynamics that either united or divided them. Venturing boldly into an equality struggle that echoes into today, Suffs stands as a theatrical behemoth, lauded by Forbes as a “must-see,” and a stirring nudge reminding us that while progress is within reach, it's never a sure thing.

Make your voice heard with our matching songbook, featuring 15 songs from the exuberant score arranged for vocal line with piano accompaniment. Songs include: Finish the Fight • Great American B**** • How Long • If We Were Married • Keep Marching • Let Mother Vote • Lucy's Song • The March (We Demand Equality) • Show Them Who You Are • Wait My Turn • Worth It • and more.

Schönberg's Suite op. 25 of 1923 refers to pre-classical forms in its movement titles Präludium, Gavotte-Musette, Intermezzo, Menuett-Trio and Gigue, yet at the same time it was the first work to be based entirely on a twelve-tone row. But anyone who believes that emotions can be left out of this completely new-sounding music is mistaken: Schönberg requires the player's full commitment, reflected in a whole palette of new articulation markings which he added to the musical text in order to ensure a nuanced and expressive performance. A challenge for all pianists! In the Henle Urtext edition, the Israeli-American pianist Shai Wosner, a true connoisseur of the Suite, provides indispensable assistance with the fingering to help decode this magnificent work.
