Messiah 1741 - new light on Handel's masterpieceThe focus of this new edition is the Messiah as first conceived by the composer in 1741: before its first performance in Dublin in 1742, before the first London performances of the mid 1740s, before the final Foundling Hospital performances in the late 1750s. The editor succeeds in creating a 21st-century edition from the perspective of 1741, making clear that Messiah was a genius hit from the start.Messiah 1741 - the first and only complete edition of Handel's autograph scoreThorough information on Handel's performance practice in 1741 (including topics such as orchestration, continuo, text underlay and specific questions on interpretation)It offers a reconstruction of the wind parts according to contemporary sourcesPiano vocal score with contemporary vocal ornamentationFirst edition including the German text by Herder - a monument of the German enlightenment - which is contentwise and phonetically closer to Jennens' text than any other translation, therefore being a perfect singable alternativeThe appendix contains additionally the most popular and important aria versions composed after 1741 for practical reasons.Throughout this new edition, creative yet pragmatic scholarship shines through, and the Preface and Critical Report are thorough and unusually fascinating. ... I'm very happy to own the full score, and if I were starting out now, I'd invest in the whole kit and caboodle.(Jeremy Summerly, Choir & Organ)Critical Edition with the original English text by Charles Jennens as well as the German translation by Johann Gottfried Herder, including a comprehensive historical and musicological preface and detailed critical commentary.

Antonio Caldara - Crucifixus for Clarinet Choir, arranged by Matt Johnston. Can be performed by 12 B-flat Clarinets and 4 Bass Clarinets, with the possibility of substituting auxiliary clarinets as indicated in the list of instrumentation. Additionally, an optional organ part is provided. Antonio Caldara was an Italian composer of the Baroque era. He was born in Venice and spent most of his life working in various musical positions throughout Italy, including as a composer and musician in the courts of Mantua, Rome, and Vienna. Caldara is perhaps best known for his vocal music, particularly his operas and oratorios. He also composed instrumental music, including sonatas and chamber music. He was particularly known for his use of counterpoint, a technique in which multiple melodic lines are played or sung simultaneously, and for his expressive use of harmony.

Italian composer, Domenico Scarlatti (1685-1757) is well-known for his Keyboard compositions. His 555 Keyboard Sonatas remain ever popular to this day, and it is for this reason that this first volume of Selected Sonatas isindispensable to performers of the genre. Originally composed for the Harpsichord, Organ or early Pianoforte, the sonatas display the riveting use of discords and unconventional modulations to remote keys. It is also thought thatmuch of Scarlatti's Keyboard music contains influences of Iberian music, considering that he spent much of his working life in the service of the Spanish and Portuguese royal families. The first volume of Selected Sonatas,compiled by Kenneth Gilbert, includes many of the popular and recognised sonatas. Bearing in mind that Domenico Scarlatti was a highly competent and popular Keyboard player in his day, so much so that he was employed in theservice of two royal families, his sonatas are composed with much experience, understanding and expertise, creating an essential addition to the repertoire of all Keyboard players of the Baroque genre.

BWV 188 reconstructed in its entirety for the first time The project of publishing Bach's cantatas in a material that can be purchased completely continues to grow with a new edition of a work that made particular demands on the editor. For Breitkopf, the renowned Bach scholar Werner Breig had already brought out new editions of the well-known B-minor Suite (PB/OB 5397, EB 8737) and of the A-minor Suite on which it was based, but now reconstructed for violin, strings and basso continuo (PB/OB 5398). His interest was particularly sparked by the sinfonia, which has been transmitted in an extremely rudimentary fashion. Step by step, Breig reconstructs the entire introductory movement from the final virtuoso organ passage and the da capo indication with corresponding musical incipit. His model for the reconstruction, which was carried out with enormous stylistic authenticity, is an early D-minor violin concerto which is no longer extant in this form, but which Bach later reworked into the Harpsichord Concerto BWV 1052. Performers will enjoy a Bach cantata that is now restored in its entirety for the first time.Step by step, Breig reconstructs the entire introductory movement.
