To a Red Rose\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe three compositions here presented under the title \u003cem\u003eThree Roses\u003c\/em\u003e are contained in a diffusion-transfer negative of a single autograph in Price's handwriting but are not collectively so titled by Price; two of the works (\u003cem\u003eTo a Yellow Rose\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eTo a White Rose\u003c\/em\u003e) also survive in separate autographs. The revisions and rethinkings represented in the manuscripts suggest an extremely recursive compositional process for the pieces: establishing a firm chronological relationship among the manuscripts for the first two \u003cem\u003eRoses\u003c\/em\u003e is difficult because the revisions show that Price moved back and forth between the documents rather than writing out one in order to supersede another. Most of the differences among the sources are small, but one manuscript transmits a significantly shorter version of \u003cem\u003eTo a Yellow Rose\u003c\/em\u003e and the two sources for \u003cem\u003eTo a White Rose are essentially different pieces altogether. This edition offers performers the option of choosing either the shorter or longer version of To a Yellow Rose\u003c\/em\u003e and gives both White Roses as \"Version A\" and \"Version B,\" allowing performers to compare and choose. Differences among the manuscripts are reported in the Critical Notes in the score.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhilological ambiguities aside, Price's three Roses are a clear set of character studies on the shades of meaning of one of the most well-known floral symbols of friendship and love; each Rose uses a different melodic style and emotional vein to evoke the different connotations of yellow, white, and red roses. The joyous, dancelike character of the concluding \u003cem\u003eRed Rose\u003c\/em\u003e suggests that the lovers' union is the goal of the set — but that wish is only made more poignant by the fact that all three \u003cem\u003eRoses\u003c\/em\u003e were written in 1949, more than fifteen years after Price's separation from Percy Arnett and just four years before her death. Additionally, the works' interconnectedness is underscored by a feature of the \u003cem\u003eRoses\u003c\/em\u003e that is seldom found in Price's sets: her collections rarely offer any sort of thematic quotation or motivic allusion among the different movements, but here, the long notes of the melody in mm.54-59 of \u003cem\u003eTo a Red Rose\u003c\/em\u003e clearly recall the main theme of \u003cem\u003eTo a Yellow Rose\u003c\/em\u003e — in the same key as that earlier movement.\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=\"\/fr\/collections\/price-preludes\"\u003ePreludes\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/collections\/price-etude\"\u003eEtude\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/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=\"\/fr\/collections\/price-barcarolle\"\u003eBarcarolle\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/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=\"\/fr\/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=\"\/fr\/collections\/price-waltz-of-the-spring-maid\"\u003eWaltz of the Spring Maid\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/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=\"\/fr\/collections\/price-whirlaway-waltz\"\u003eWhirlaway Waltz\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/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=\"\/fr\/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\/fr\/collections\/price-three-roses.oembed","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
