1 In B-Flat Minor, Op.One of the few artists who has combined a successful career as a pianist and conductor, Russian born Vladimir Ashkenazy inherited his musical gift from both sides of his family: his father David Ashkenazy was a professional light music pianist and his mother Evstolia (née Plotnova) was daughter of a chorus master in the Russian Orthodox church. oai/?verb=GetRecord&metadataPrefix=oai_dc&identifier=info:ark/67531/metadc1609138 International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF) This edition focuses solely on the collaborative pianist's part. Thus, I have chosen to create an alternative version of Tchaikovsky's reduction, while still retaining as much of the original material as possible. Although Tchaikovsky's reduction is authentic and authoritative, a newly revised and simplified version would be useful for collaborative pianists. Each minor adjustment or major revision contributes cumulatively to the ease of execution of the accompanimental part as a whole. I sought to improve the readability of the music by reducing accidentals as much as possible and also incorporating small-print cues into the main staves. Through a series of carefully selected omissions, note rearrangements, visual adjustments, and editorial changes, I simplified the reduction as a whole. I created my arrangement through a process of practical trial and error as well as observing the strategies used by other arrangers of orchestral reductions. The purpose of this dissertation is ultimately to contribute to the repertoire of accompanists by producing a new edition of Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No. Tchaikovsky wrote the reduction from a compositional rather than a pianistic perspective, thus some passages present awkward technical challenges. A number of critical editions of the piece exist, but none of them cover the subject of the material within the orchestral reduction. 23 orchestral reduction exists, which is by Tchaikovsky himself. As it stands, only one arrangement of Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No.
