This edition 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. And secondly there is a wealth of previously unpublished material relating to this opera of great interest to both scholars and performers.Thusthe famous overture which Rossini had already used in his earlier opera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).Urtext edition based on the series Works of Gioachino Rossini.All versions and transpositions are included in the appendix to the study score.Singing English translation in the vocal score.Takes into account all original sources including five manuscripts with Rossini’s autograph ornamentation.Takes into consideration the full extent of Rossini’s personal notational characteristics.Study score contains a detailed foreword (Eng/Ital)Full score (BA10506) critical report (BA10506-40) & study score (TP411) available for sale; performance material (BA10506-72) available for hire.

Ed. Critica P. Gossett-A. Zedda – softcover 2 volumi-Gioachino Rossini chooses Semiramide as the opera subject of the Carnival season 1822-23 the last of his Italian career. The opera - composed on a libretto by Gaetano Rossi - was performed for the first time in Venice Teatro La Fenice onFebruary 3rd 1823. The history of this work is characterized right from the first performances by frequent manipulations cuts and consecutive adjustments because of its monumental structure. This reduction for voice and piano based on the criticaledition of the full score offers a new point of view of Semiramide through the reconstruction of the main phases of its rich executive history. In addition to the musical texts there are - both in Italian and in English - an historical Introduction (in the first volume) and a Critical Commentary to the musical text (in the second volume). In the three Appendices of the edition are thenpublished the vocal variants recovered from the original parts (some in Rossini’s hand) the original version of the conclusion of the Semiramide’s Cavatina and a version of the Finale secondo composed by Rossini for the Parisian version of 1825.
