Haydn’s “Sturm und Drang” symphonies along with the London and the Paris symphonies belong to his most popular works today. The “Sturm und Drang” works contain not only masterpieces such as the already published “Farewell-Symphony” and the “Maria Theresia” symphony but also gems such as the recently published “La Passione” symphony (2013) and now the Symphony in B major No. 46.

The publication of this symphony represents a continuation of the collaboration between Bärenreiter and the Henle publishing company in the areas of large vocal compositions, operas and symphonic works. The Symphony in B major is based on the Henle Complete Edition of the “Works of Joseph Haydn” and is published with a full score and large format performing material on sale.

ISBN 9790006562831. 31 x 24.3 cm inches. Key: G major. Text Language: German, English. Preface: Andreas Friesenhagen.

This edition clarifies a performance aspect of Haydn’s Symphony in G major that has long been misunderstood: in m. 1 of the second movement (Largo) the viola, violoncello and several wind instrument parts are marked “solo”, indicating that they play important motifs or themes and ought to stand out.
Contrary to other editions, the “solo” marking in the violoncello should not be construed as indicating a solo instrument with the remaining cellos doubling the basses. Rather, the cellos should play as a section so as to stand out all the more clearly.

Continuing the collaboration between Bärenreiter and the Henle publishing company in large-scale choral works, operas and symphonies, this edition is based on the Henle Complete Edition of the “Works of Joseph Haydn”. The complete performance material for several “Sturm und Drang” symphonies and all of the London and Paris symphonies is now available from Bärenreiter.
