By genre, the work belongs among compositions, usually instrumental and written for piano solo, that imitate the songs sung by Venetian gondoliers during their gondola rides and\/or the rocking motion of the boats on the water. Some barcarolles are large and ambitious in form (for example, Chopin's late \u003cem\u003eBarcarolle\u003c\/em\u003e , Op. 60), while others, such as the Venetian gondola songs of Mendelssohn's \u003cem\u003eSongs without Words\u003c\/em\u003e , are shorter and more intimate in tone. Price's \u003cem\u003eBarcarolle\u003c\/em\u003e falls into the latter category. True to its stylistic models, the work unfolds over a gently rocking accompaniment with slow harmonic rhythm, with gracefully arching, song-like melodies in the right hand. The generally regular four-bar phrases — another feature typical of the genre and of Italianate Romantic music generally — does not prevent Price from moving into her usual remote harmonic territories (for example, the move from in A Major to B-flat Major in mm. 17-18 or the richly chromatic sequence from mm. 22-26). On the whole, this obscure gem perfectly complements the 1926 \u003cem\u003eTarantella\u003c\/em\u003e for piano solo — a pair of works that beautifully document Price's fluency in musical Italianisms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e— John Michael Cooper\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"G.

The collection \u003cem\u003ePiano Works: Preludes, Waltzes, Songs Without Words and others\u003c\/em\u003e brings together a representative selection of 28 of her piano pieces, rooted in the 19th-century Romantic tradition. Although Price focused more strongly on Romantic idioms in the early stages of her career, the waltz (exemplified by the Rainbow Waltz) remains a consistent presence throughout her output, reflecting both a lasting affinity and an integral aspect of her compositional voice. This first Urtext edition of the composer's piano works, intended for intermediate to advanced pianists, makes many of these works available in print for the first time, while others are presented here for the first time in an edition of a high editorial standard.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003eWorks:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/price-preludes\"\u003ePreludes\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/price-etude\"\u003eEtude\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/price-impromptu-no-1\"\u003eImpromptu No. 1\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScherzo in G Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTarantella in D Minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTarantelle in G Minor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/price-barcarolle\"\u003eBarcarolle\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/price-song-without-words-in-g-major\"\u003eSong Without Words in G Major\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/price-song-without-words-in-a-major\"\u003eSong Without Words in A Major\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eValsette Mignon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRowing: Little Concert Waltz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/price-waltz-of-the-spring-maid\"\u003eWaltz of the Spring Maid\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/price-rainbow-waltz\"\u003eRainbow Waltz\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWaltz Charming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCherry Blossoms in Her Hair (Waltz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWaltz in F Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTempo di valse in D Major\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn Sentimental Mood (Waltz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/price-whirlaway-waltz\"\u003eWhirlaway Waltz\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/price-waltzing-on-a-sunbeam\"\u003eWaltzing on a Sunbeam\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTo a Little Girl (To Vicki)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCradle Piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/price-three-roses\"\u003eThree Roses\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Edition Peters","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46448789913679,"sku":"EP20041","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/a95a66647c125d7428453ed4f39cd7c0.jpg?v=1787674030"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/collections\/price-barcarolle.oembed","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
