Work & Edition Details
After the "Six Fairy Tales", op. 51, this is the second Medtner edition which was revised and reprinted. The cycle "Forgotten Melodies" op. 39 is one of Medtner's most important works. He wrote it just before he left his native contry Russia in 1921, and it represents a turn both biographically and compositional. However much Medtner's aesthetics were those of the 19th century, he nevertheless created a new structure by his efforts to combine the character piece with the form of a sonata. Therefore, op. 39 should be regarded as a cyclic entity even though Medtner himself performed the whole sequence only once (on the occasion of its premiere at the Moscow conservatory in 1921). Christoph Flamm carefully edited this new issue based on the first edition published by Julius Heinrich Zimmermann. An extensive preface offers information about the work and the revised parts.
