Gabriel Fauré: Violin Sonata No. 1 in A Major, Op. 13, for Violin and Piano – Henle Urtext Edition
Fauré’s chamber music occupies a central place in the French Romantic canon, combining lyrical elegance and expressive harmony into refined instrumental writing. One of the most beloved works for violin and piano, the Violin Sonata No. 1 in A Major, Op. 13, Fauré opened up a new tradition for this genre in French music. It is a rewarding choice for advanced violinists and pianists looking for expressive depth, technical brilliance, and classic French Romantic style.
In a review, Saint-Saëns expressed his enthusiasm for this work by his friend and pupil: "In this sonata you can find everything to tempt a gourmet: new forms, excellent modulations, unusual tone colours, and the use of unexpected rhythms.
And a magic floats above everything, encompassing the whole work, causing the crowd of usual listeners to accept the unimagined audacity as something quite normal. With this work Monsieur Fauré takes his place amongst the masters."
This Henle Urtext edition presents Fauré’s Violin Sonata No. 1 in a clear, reliable format for serious study and performance. Composed in 1875–76, the work remains one of the most important violin sonatas of the late nineteenth century, balancing passionate melodic writing with sophisticated piano textures. This edition offers performers the ideal score for recitals, competitions, conservatory study, and chamber music performance.
Edited by Fabian Kolb, this paperbound edition includes piano fingering by Pascal Rogé and violin fingering and bowing by Igor Ozim. With both marked and unmarked string parts included, this Henle edition is a valuable choice for students, teachers, performers, and collectors of Fauré sheet music.
