Par ROSSINI GIOACHINO. This study score is based on the critical edition of “ The Barber Of Seville ” edited by Patricia B. Brauner and published in 2008 as part of the series “Works of Gioachino Rossini”. But who needs a new critical edition of “ The Barber Of Seville ”? The opera has been performed in theatres throughout the world since 1816 and has never been absent from the repertoire. There are two reasons for a critical new edition: firstly, none of the early editions satisfy modern demands for a scholarly-critical edition. Secondly, there is a wealth of previously unpublished material relating to this opera, of great interest to both scholars andperformers. Thus the famous overture, which Rossini had already used in his earlier opera “Aureliano in Palmira”, differs noticeably from earlier editions in many places. The new edition enables performers to perform the overture either in its original scoring (as in “Aureliano in Palmira”), which includes two Flutes, two Oboes and Timpani, or in the scoring for the subsequent opera “ The Barber Of Seville ” (with just one flute, one oboe and no timpani). A series of appendices contain music and information which have been included in no other edition of the opera to date. - Takes into account all original sources, also including five manuscripts with Rossini’s autograph ornamentation. - Takes into consideration the full extent of Rossini ’s personal notational characteristics. - With a detailed foreword (Eng/Ital)/ Répertoire / Partition de Poche

a 6 et a 8. Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. The Serenade in E-flat, K. 375, exists in two versions, one for two clarinets, two horns and two bassoons, and another for the same forces plus two oboes, forming an octet. From Mozart himself we know a fair amount about the occasion that led to the first, six-instrument version of this work and about its early performances. Written for the sister-in-law of the court painter Hickl, it probably originated toward the end of September or the beginning of October in 1781 and was first performed on 15 October, the name-day of St. Theresa. The octet version probably arose in the summer of the following year. It is far more than a mechanical expansion of the sextetwith the oboes merely reinforcing the clarinets colla parte. Not only did Mozart take advantage of the occasion to make changes in the articulation and the dynamics, he also altered the work's melodic substance and formal design. The two additional high-register instruments allowed him to achieve more subtle distinctions and gradations of timbre, thereby enabling him, for example, to vary the timbral homogeneity of the two clarinets. The opportunity arose to divide melodic phrases among the clarinets and oboes or to make them more brilliant and incisive by doubling them at the unison or octave. - Urtext of the New Mozart Edition - Parts sextet version (BA5333), octet version (BA5334) and study score both versions format 22. 5 x 16. 5cm (TP315) available for sale/ Répertoire / Partition de Poche

Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. J. S. Bach ’s Four Orchestral Suites belong to that select group of works one could truly call classical hits! They stem from Bach ’s extremely productive time in Cöthen which ended in 1721. Unfortunately the only sources that have come down to us are copyist parts from Leipzig. These originally formed the basis for the critical complete edition volume which was published in 1967 as part of the “New Bach Edition”. At that time Bärenreiter also issued separate scores and parts which however were prepared with additional articulation and performance suggestions. Bärenreiter’s new edition of Bach’s great four suites nowpresents the Urtext as found in the “New Bach Edition” i. e. without emendations and performance suggestions. The orchestral parts have been re-engraved and the material includes an alternative version of the Overture and Air to the D major suite BWV 1068 including a “Violino concertato” part. - Urtext editions of these important works. - Newly engraved parts and fully realized continuo. - For the first time an alternative version of the Overture and Air to the D major suite BWV 1068 with “ Violino concertato ” is included. - Full scores, study scores and performance material available for sale./ Répertoire / Partition de Poche

Par MENDELSSOHN-BARTHOLDY FELIX. Christopher Hogwood's first ever critical edition of the much performed concert overture goes back for the first time to all the sources. Hogwood examines not only Mendelssohn's autograph but also the first edition of the score and orchestral parts which Mendelssohn saw to print. A manuscript copy with additional music thought to have been performed under Mendelssohn's direction, but later deleted, as well as the composer's own two and four-hand piano arrangements of the composition were also taken into account. As with the other overtures in this series, the score contains a lengthy introduction, a critical commentary andfacsimiles. First ever critical edition of this concert overture. Additional music included in score and parts stemming from a source used by Mendelssohn for a performance of the work.

Cantata for the 1st Easter Day. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Study score format 22. 5 x 16. 5cm Der Himmel Lacht! Die Erde Jubilieret BWV 31 (The Heavens laugh, the earth exults in gladness) BWV 31 Cantata for the 1st Easter Day - Performance material (BA10031), vocal score (BA10031-90) and study score (TP1031) available for sale. The text, by Salomon Franck who was the librettist of some of Bach 's the best-known cantatas, is closely linked to the account of Easter and recalls the jubilation at the resurrection of Jesus. Bärenreiter's editions of Bach Cantatas offer the authoritative text of the New Bach Edition meeting Bärenreiter Urtext standards. No groupof works in Johann Sebastian Bach ’s output is as wide-ranging as the cantatas. This is hardly surprising considering that for over five years Bach was required to compose a work, or at least re-work an existing one, for every Sunday and festival of the church year, as well as for numerous secular occasions such as council inaugurations, school and university celebrations and royal birthdays. Unfortunately, not all cantatas have survived. However, over 200 sacred and secular works exist and form a corpus of works suitable for all possible occasions. This rich musical heritage is still as relevant today as it was then./ Répertoire / Partition de Poche

Dramma giocoso (Opera) in two acts. Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. In early 1787 Mozart made his first visit to Prague, where he attended a performance of Le nozze di Figaro on 17 January and conducted the performance five days later. Thoroughly impressed by the huge success of his opera and the personal triumphs he had enjoyed during his visit, he and his wife left the city on 7 February, but not before he had concluded a contract to write a new opera for the next season. This contract, signed with Pasquale Bondini, the director of Count Nostitz’s National Theater, led to the composition of his first opera for Prague, Don Giovanni (K. 527). Ever since its première on 29 October 1787, the opera has moved audiences over andover again and has occupied a special position in Mozart’s rich and variegated output for the stage.

Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Jauchzet Gott In Allen Landen - Praise Ye God Throughout Creation BWV 51. Cantata for the 15th Sunday after Trinity. The solo cantata “Jauchzet Gott In Allen Landen”, written around 1730 for the 15th Sunday after Trinity, is one of Bach ’s best-known cantatas. The scoring for solo Soprano, Trumpet, Strings and Continuo is unique amongst Bach ’s cantatas and has parallels with Italian composers of the period. The enduring popularity of the work is due to the clear and succinct formal structure and not least to the virtuoso Trumpet part and Soprano arias, in which the soloists can demonstrate their total mastery. The cantata ispublished in a Vocal score based on the “New Bach Edition” with an idiomatic straightforward Piano reduction by Martin Focke. - Famous work with a festive instrumental sound. - Urtext based on the “New Bach Edition”. - Clear straightforward Piano reduction. - Study score (TP1051) performance material (BA10051) & Vocal score (BA10051-90) available for sale./ Répertoire / Partition de Poche

Miniature Score of D759 'Unfinished' and D944 'The Great'. Par SCHUBERT FRANZ. The least schooled of the great German musicians, Schubert amply compensated for his lack of formal training with his keen musical intuition and limitless melodic invention. This volume comprises two of his greatest and best-loved orchestral works. Although the Unfinished consists of only two movements, it is one of the composer's most popular compositions, cherished for the quiet intimacy of its emotion and its beautiful melody. Symphony No. 9 composed in the final year of Schubert's life, is his ultimate masterpiece- a vast work with extensive development and great breadth of musical ideas. Both are in full score with original instrumentation. Idealfor study purpose./ Répertoire / Partition de Poche
