D major-Johannes Brahms' Violin Concerto written for his friend Joseph Joachim has remained a standard in the concert literature since its first performance. No scholarly critical edition of this work has ever been published and therefore the many sometimes conflicting sources have never been evaluated for a critical performing edition. Not only Brahms' autograph score solo part and autograph Piano reduction but also his personal copies of the first edition score as well as the first edition orchestral parts have all been consulted. Clive Brown’s edition offers insights into the genesis of the composition and the working relationshipbetween Brahms and Joachim. The critical commentary comments on all discrepancies in the sources. The critical edition of Brahms' own Piano reduction is at the same time a performing edition and includes an informative introduction as well as comments on performance practice. In addition the Piano reduction includes a separate brochure with not only the well known Joachim cadenza but also those by J. Halir H. Heermann L. Auer and F. Busoni. An informative preface (Ger/Eng) with references to performance practice and a critical commentary are included in the edition First scholarly critical edition of this standard work Critical commentary (Eng) Insightful comments on performance practice An Urtext Violin part and an additional Violin part marked with fingering and bowing suggestions by Joseph Joachim Valuable cadenza brochure with cadenzas by Joachim Halir Heermann Auer and Busoni Full score critical commentary & parts (BA9049) and Violin & Piano reduction (BA9049-90) and study score (TP949) available for sale

Brahms h?sita longtemps avant d??crire un concerto de soliste pour un instrument dont il ne ma?trisait que tr?s peu la technique. C?est pourquoi lorsqu?il composa son concerto pour violon et orchestre op. 77 dans les ann?es 1877/1878 ce fut en collaboration ?troite avec son ami Joseph Joachim qui est ?galement l?auteur de la cadence. Ses contemporains accueillirent l??uvre avec enthousiasme et elle reste consid?r?e aujourd?hui comme une pi?ce majeure du r?pertoire. Une ?dition urtext dans un petit format maniable destin? ? l??tude s?av?re par cons?quent tr?s utile. Reposant sur la partition parue dans la nouvelle ?dition compl?te des ?uvres de Brahms elle contient?galement en annexe la cadence de Joachim dans deux versions diff?rentes: d?une part la version originale et d?autre part une version tr?s int?ressante plus condens?e mise au point par Brahms ult?rieurement avec la violoniste Marie Soldat.
