Grundlage der von namhaften Musikwissenschaftlern erarbeiteten 35 Werkdarstellungen von Guillaume de Machaut uber Orlando di Lasso, Bach, Schubert und Brahms bis Schonberg und Britten ist die Interpretation der in Wort und Ton fixierten musikalischen Texte, die Erorterung von deren ideengeschichtlichem Zusammenhang und kunstgeschichtlichem Wesen unter vielfaltigen Gesichtspunkten. Mit der Erschliessung der Werkgehalte wird jedem Ausfuhrenden und jedem Horer - Chorleitern und Sangern, Studenten, Komponisten, Wissenschaftlern und Padagogen - der Weg zu einer gleichermassen geistigen und sinnlichen Auffassung der Musik gewiesen. In einem separaten Band sind alle im Text behandelten Kompositionen vollstandig wiedergegeben. Mit diesem Sammelband wird die erstmals 1983 erschienene erfolgreiche Publikation gleichen Titels fortgesetzt und zu einem Abriss der Geschichte der unbegleiteten Chor- und Ensemblemusik von der Ars antiqua bis zur Gegenwart erganzt, der theoretischem Analyseanspruch wie musikpraktischen Erfordernissen gleichermassen gerecht wird.

About William Walton Edition
In March 2014 Oxford University Press published the last volume in its magnificent William Walton Edition, the only complete critical edition of a 20th-century British composer's oeuvre. All 24 volumes are handsomely printed and bound. Walton's entire output is now available to scholars and performers in a definitive and fully practical edition, based on the form in which the composer ultimately wished his music to be performed. The general editor, David Lloyd-Jones - the eminent conductor, English music specialist, and founder of Opera North - invited a world-class expert to edit each volume. Carefully researched introductory essays place the works in their historical context and in the composer's oeuvre, and there are full critical notes.

Love from a Stranger was a 'thriller' starring Ann Harding and Basil Rathbone, based on an Agatha Christie short story, Philomel Cottage. As well as Britten's score, the film also included excerpts from Grieg's Peer Gynt music, and a contemporary dance band. Not all of the present score was used - No. 3, Brighton, was omitted and cuts were made in nos. 5 and 6. In the latter, a savage cut deleted the references to the music of the other numbers in bars 13-20, including the trombone's scale, which alludes to a scene in which a child practices the piano unseen. Britten was not happy with the way his music was used, and this was to remain his only work for the commercial cinema composed in 1936.
