Harmonie-Messe.-Missa B-flat Major Hob.XXII:14 'Harmony Mass'Urtext from: Joseph Haydn WerkeIt is well known that Joseph Haydn wrote his late masses to the commission of his last employer Prince Nicolaus II Esterhazy. The 'Harmoniemesse' is the last of these high masses all of which probably received their first performances in celebration of the name-day of Princess Maria Josepha Hermenegild the prince's wife. The present work was given for the first time on 8 September 1802 in the Bergkirche at Eisenstadt Haydn himself conducting.Haydn entitled his work simply 'Missa'. The work has acquired the name 'Harmoniemesse' by reason ofthe prominent parts given to the wind instruments ('Harmonie' being a contemporary name for a wind band); the nickname did not become established until the late nineteenth century.Full score and parts (BA4659) vocal score (BA4659-90) and study score format 22.5 x 16.5cm (TP97) available for sale.

Pathétique. Par TCHAIKOVSKI PIOTR ILITCH. The brooding melancholy that pervades many of Tchaikovsky's compositions is perhaps most concentrated in his Symphony No. 6, the 'Pathétique, ' a remarkably innovative, highly personal, and deeply emotional work. A perennial concert favorite since its premiere in 1893, this symphony is also characterized by two of the composer's most consistent and memorable contributions: his effortless melodic invention and superb orchestration. This miniature-score edition of the work is complete in all respects, containing the original instrumentation with bar-numbered movements. Reproduced from the authoritative Breitkopf & Härtel edition, it is ideal for study in the classroom, at home, or in the concert hall — an affordable, high-quality, conveniently sized volume that will be the edition of choice for music students and music lovers alike.

Mass in Time of War-Haydn was in England in 1795 when he received word from his new Prince Nicolaus II Esterházy that the Esterházy orchestra was to be reformed and Haydn was to serve again as active Capellmeister.Prince Nicolaus II demanded little from his Capellmeister except the usual routine of administration; but Haydn was to compose every year a new Mass for the name day of the Princess Josepha Maria which was celebrated the Sunday afterwards in the Bergkirche at Eisenstadt. It is known that a new Haydn mass was performed before a packed congregation in the Piaristenkirche in Vienna on St. Stephen?s Day (26 December) 1796. The writer of these notes examined when preparingthis edition the music archives of the church and found contemporary parts on the Missa in tempore belli in the church; and it seems certain that this (and not the Heiligmesse) was the work performed on that occasion and thus also the work which Haydn had just finished and performed in Eisenstadt.Urtext from Joseph Haydn WerkeFull score parts (BA4652) vocal score (BA4652-90) and study score format 22.5 x 16.5cm (TP94) available for sale

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

a 6 et a 8-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

Dramma giocoso (Opera) in two acts-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.Urtext of the New Mozart EditionFull score (BA4550-01) vocal score (BA4550-90) study score format 22.5 x 16.5cm (TP279) available for salePerformance material (BA4550-72) available for hire

This study score of Franz Schubert’s complete string trios (Violin Viola and Violoncello) takes its text from the New Schubert Edition. It also includes Schubert’s very first essay in the genre which only resurfaced in 1997: the draft trio in B-flat major D 111A (1814). Besides this draft two other trios in B-flat major written a short while later have come down to us: D 471 and D 581. The first is likewise a fragment as it breaks off in m. 39 of the second movement. D 581 survives in two versions the first based on the autograph score the second on a set of parts prepared and thoroughly revised by Schubert. Both versionsprovide useful performance alternatives that differ widely in their form rhythm articulation and dynamics. - All of Schubert's string trios- All drafts and alternative versions for the first time in a study score- Urtext from the New Schubert Edition Contents:- Trio in B-flat major D 471 (movement 1)- Trio in B-flat major D 581 (versions 1 and 2)- Incomplete first movement to Trio in B-flat major D 111A- Incomplete second movement to Trio in B-flat major D 471
