This document describes four classical music scores available from Dover Publications:
1) Anton Bruckner's Symphony No. 5 in B-flat Major, reprinted from an authoritative edition.
2) Anton Bruckner's Symphony No. 9 in D minor, edited to reproduce what the composer wrote before his death.
3) Rare works for cello and piano by Auguste Franchomme, a famous cellist and friend of Chopin.
4) Sergei Prokofiev's Violin Concerto No. 1 in D Major, containing a piano reduction and separate violin part.
Both are highly formal in their structure, employing the sonata form. Both present their ideas in three movements, following an arc that goes from spritely to introspective to exuberant. And yet Haydn was writing at the dawn of Europe’s classical period and embodying the formalism of the new Enlightenment (1756), while Detroit native Paul Schoenfield's "Cafe Music" (1987) is expressing the whimsy and energy of the 21st century urban metropolis. In this "informance" the Saint Michael Trio shows how two utterly different composers use the same tools to express the sentiment of their age.

B-flat Major
in Full Score
Anton Bruckner
Featuring strikingly original harmonies and an extended
structure and tonal range, this staple of the orchestral rep-
ertoire is a landmark of the Austro-Germanic symphonic tra-
dition. Composed in the late 1870s but not performed until
1894, this symphony ranks among Anton Bruckner’s finest
works. Reprint of the Breitkopf & Härtel, Leipzig, n.d. edition.
(Worldwide). 192pp. 9 x 12.

Auguste
Franchomme
The most celebrated cellist of his era, French composer
Auguste Franchomme (1808–84) created more than 50 works
for the instrument in addition to numerous other pieces with
piano, orchestral, or chamber accompaniment. Suitable for
intermediate to advanced players, this unique first edition
of rare cello and piano works features a separate cello part.
The editor provides a fascinating essay on the artist.
Dover Original. (Worldwide). 192pp. 9 x 12.
Symphony No. 9
in D minor
Anton Bruckner
Edited by
Robert Haas and
Alfred Orel
Bruckner’s ninth and final symphony was left incomplete
upon his 1896 death, although the composer had conceived
the entire fourth movement and orchestrated large portions
of it. This edition, first performed in 1932, represents the
authoritative attempt at reproducing what the composer
wrote, rather than finishing the work.
