Following the recent publication of the full score and performance material to Debussy s La Mer (BA 7880), Bärenreiter now presents the study score edition of this impressionistic masterpiece. The new scholarly-critical edition draws on several important sources previously unavailable to musicologists, resulting in an array of new readings and corrections. In addition, there are many changes, especially in terms of articulation and dynamics. This new edition includes the famous fanfare in Movement III, clearly marked in small print and brackets. This fanfare was excised in the 1910 reissue of the work, but was reinstated by a number of great conductors who knew Debussy, i.e. Monteux, Münch, Mitropoulos and Ansermet. They felt that the excision was a misunderstanding and that the fanfare was necessary for the structure of the movement. And so, the Bärenreiter edition presents the revival of a performing tradition which is committed to the fanfare. - New Urtext edition with numerous corrections in comparison to other editions - Important sources which were previously inaccessible have been taken into account Edition no.: TP 780 ISMN: 9790006205455 Editor: Woodfull-Harris, Douglas Language(s) of text: French, English, German Product format: Study score, Urtext edition Binding: Paperback Pages / Format: XXVIII, 158 S. - 22,5 x 16,5 cm
