Six Barcaroles (Kalmus Edition) [Paperback] Review

This collection of sheet music only contains six of the thirteen Barcarolles of Gabriel Fauré. (Les Troisième Barcarolles).It is, nevertheless, well worth the price.

I first heard these compositions some thirty five years ago (1971) when Jean Phillipe Collard released his first recording. His first recording was in 1971 just after he won the Gabriel Fauré competition in France (at the incredible age of 21). I believe there is still no finer recording.

The recording is available on Amazon but only from independent sources.

Here are the six barcaroles in this collection of sheet music. The music is clear, readable and professionally reproduced.

No. 1 In A Minor, Op.26

No. 2 In G Major, Op.41

No. 3 In G Flat Major, Op.42

No. 4 In A Flat Major, Op.44

No. 5 In F Sharp Minor, Op.66

No. 6 In E Flat Major, Op.70

Fauré's compositions are not for beginners, but, despite their introspective complexity, even pianists of moderate achievements can play them.
