Composed in August of 1920 while vacationing in his native Switzerland, Pastorale d'ete (Summer Pastorale) evokes a peaceful summer morning in the Swiss Alps. The composer even prefaced the first published edition of the score with an epigraph by Arthur Rimbaud - I have embraced the summer dawn. The premiere took place in Paris at the Salle Gaveau under the baton of Vladimir Golschmann on February 17, 1921. This new study score is a digitally-enhanced reissue of the edition published by Wiener Philharmonischer Verlag in 1922. Unlike so many of the on-demand scores now available, this one comes with all the pages and the images have been thoroughly checked to make sure it is readable. As with all PLP scores a percentage of each sale is donated to the amazing online archive of free music scores and recordings, IMSLP - Petrucci Music Library.
