The
publishers Henle and
Breitkopf & Hartel are
continuing their
collaboration, now with
Brahms, by publishing the
performance material of
the double concerto.
Brahms's last work with
orchestra was published
in the new Brahms
Complete Edition in 2002,
whereby the editor was
able to base himself on
newly accessible sources.
Of particular interest
are the additional
performance instructions
for the solo violin and
solo cello, which were
gathered from the first
edition of the solo
parts. These indications
were supplied by the
soloists of the first
performance, Joseph
Joachim and Robert
Hausmann. No doubt
authorized by Brahms,
they communicate valuable
insights into the
performance practice of
the time. The new
material also contains a
part in which the solo
violin and cello are
notated one above the
other. The trio edition
for violin, violoncello
and piano (EB 6040),
which was made by Brahms
himself, has proven
itself for chamber
performances; it
continues to be
available.The full score
is a conductor's dream:
big, bold, and
beautifully laid out on
glare-free bluff paper.
