It is however certain that these are the first works by Martinů which transcended his initial attempts at composition and they quickly found a publisher. Thanks to their lasting popularity particularly with young pianists, they were published in numerous editions. The pieces take the characters of Italian \u003cem\u003ecommedia dell 'arte\u003c\/em\u003e as their theme; Pierrot, Colombine and Harlequin. Also included are dance and ball scenes, as well as scenes from the \"private lives\" of the puppets. The three editions of Puppets were composed between 1912 and 1925 in reverse order (Puppets III came before Puppets I). The works all differ from one another, beginning with different aesthetic starting points and ending with piano writing which gradually matures. Now the cycle is published for the first time in one volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBook 1 contains: Columbine Dances, The New Puppet, The Shy Puppet, Fairy Tale and The Puppets' Dance\nBook 2 contains: Puppet Theatre, Harlequin, Colombine Remembers, The Sick Puppet and Colombine Sings\nBook 3 contains: Pierrot's Serenade, Waltz of the Sentimental Puppet, Colombine, and Puppet's Ball\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003eWorks:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/martinu-loutky-i-h-137\"\u003eLoutky I, H 137\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoutky II, H 116\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/martinu-loutky-iii-h-92\"\u003eLoutky III, H 92\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bärenreiter Praha","offers":[{"title":"Complete","offer_id":14812280134,"sku":"H7970","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Book 1","offer_id":31284638854,"sku":"H7875","price":17.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Book 2","offer_id":31284670790,"sku":"H7946","price":20.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Book 3","offer_id":31284691974,"sku":"H7963","price":28.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/b36485f5284552e2fd3b56cacb0a7609.jpg?v=1780336356"},{"product_id":"an-expedition-into-czech-piano-music-barenreiter","title":"An Expedition into Czech Piano Music","description":"\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComposers\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/vitezslav-novak\"\u003eVítězslav Novák (1870-1949)\u003c\/a\u003e, Jiří Vřešťál (1930-1952), Milan Dlouhý, Luboš Sluka (1928-), \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/zdenek-fibich\"\u003eZdeněk Fibich (1850-1900)\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/bedrich-smetana\"\u003eBedřich Smetana (1824-1884)\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/petr-eben\"\u003ePetr Eben (1929-2007)\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/jan-vaclav-hugo-vorisek\"\u003eJan Václav Hugo Voříšek (1791-1825)\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/jan-ladislav-dussek\"\u003eJan Ladislav Dussek (1760-1812)\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/antonin-dvorak\"\u003eAntonín Dvořák (1841-1904)\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/bohuslav-martinu\"\u003eBohuslav Martinů (1890-1959)\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/leos-janacek\"\u003eLeoš Janáček (1854-1928)\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/miloslav-kabelac\"\u003eMiloslav Kabeláč (1908-1979)\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/josef-suk\"\u003eJosef Suk (1874-1935)\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/jiri-antonin-georg-anton-benda\"\u003eJiří Antonín (Georg Anton) Benda (1722-1795)\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong class=\"original-instrumentation-title\"\u003eInstrumentation\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"original-instrumentation\"\u003ePiano\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"binding hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBinding\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISMN\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-barcode\"\u003e9790260108981\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-width\"\u003e9.6\u003c\/span\u003e x \u003cspan class=\"book-length\"\u003e12.2\u003c\/span\u003e inches\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"book-pages\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages\u003c\/strong\u003e: 64\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"one-half columns\"\u003e \u003ch4\u003eDescription\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"feature_divider\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe leading Czech pianist IVo Kahánek has long devoted himself to training young musicians. with this album of recital pieces he offers young pianists quite easy pieces by well-known Czech composers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe collection provides a cross-section of Czech piano literature from the 18th to the late 20th century.
