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.

Complete Edition hardcover Opera buffa in four acts-Premièred at the Vienna Hoftheater on 1 May 1786 Wolfang Amadeus Mozartâ??s and Lorenzo Da Ponteâ??s Le nozze di Figaro may be safely regarded as one of the greatest operatic successes of all times. Yet its success was not entirely due to Mozartâ??s music: on the contrary because of the extraordinary demands it placed on the orchestra (especially the woodwinds) the music even posed an obstacle to the workâ??s spread outside the German-speaking countries. At least equally responsible for the operaâ??s success was the librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte who managed to transform a topical and socio-critical stage play into an opera libretto as effective as it isamusing.Many of the sources for Mozartâ??s first opera from the Lorenzo Da Ponte trilogy only became available to scholars again after the â??New Mozart Editionâ?? volume was published. These include the autograph scores of acts 3 and 4 now held at the Biblioteka Jagiello ka in Kraków significant portions of the original sets of parts and acts 2 to 4 of the conductorâ??s copy from the first performance of 1786.These original sources now available again offer compelling solutions to several previously unresolved questions.Edition based on the Urtext of the â??New Mozart Editionâ?? reflecting the latest musicological researchWith findings from original sources now available againDetailed foreword (Ger/Eng)Full score (BA4565-01) Vocal score (BA4565-92) study score format 22.5 x 16.5cm

Set of Wind Parts-We know that Mozart held his Vespers in high regard since he once asked his father in a letter dated 12 March 1783 to send the two works to him in Vienna so that he could show them to Baron Gottfried van Swieten. The Office hymns designated as Vesperae de Dominica K. 321 and Vesperae Solennes De Confessore K. 339 both call for four Vocal parts two Violins two Clarini Kettledrums Basses (Violoncello Double Bass and Bassoon) three Trombones and Organ.They contain settings of Psalms 109 (Dixit) 110 (Confitebor) 111 (Beatus vir) 112 (Laudate pueri) 116 (Laudate Dominum) and of the Magnificat canticle. Each of the Psalms forms anautonomous unit; the Doxology at the end is derived from the themes of the various Psalms.Urtext of the New Mozart EditionPerformance material (BA4894) vocal score (BA4894-90) available for sale

Charpentier composa le nativitatem Domini Canticum pendant son mandat de maître de musique à l'église de Saint-Louis à Paris (vers 1690). Le travail était probablement destinée à la performance pendant la messe le jour de Noël et a donc une fonction liturgique comme c'était la coutume au cours de la période de Louis XIV à Paris. Le texte présente l'histoire de Noël en trois sections: le choeur des fidèles, l'histoire réelle de la naissance de Jésus et l'adoration des bergers dans les champs. La musique révèle un subtil mélange de styles franCais et italien avec des éléments dramatiques.Pour la première fois ce travail, préparé par le reconnu Charpentier expert Joel Schwindt, est présenté dans une édition savante critique où toutes les sources ont été consultées / Conducteur / Partition
