The present
edition is based on all
relevant sources. The
preface sketches the
work's genesis from the
moment of its conception
in Rome in late December
1879 (Yesterday, out in
the streets, I heard a
wonderful folksong that I
will most certainly make
use of.) to the first
reviews, in which
Tchaikovsky was accused
of triviality and of
having made an extremely
unfortunate choice of
themes. Yet this did
nothing to hamper the
worldwide success of the
work, and Tchaikovsky's
composer colleagues also
culled ideas from it: a
few years later,
Tchaikovsky himself was
the dedicatee of Nikolay
Rimsky-Korsakov's
Capriccio espagnol.Mit
seinen
Urtext-Studienpartituren
setzt Breitkopf nicht nur
auf eine bewahrte
Tradition, sondern blickt
offenbar auch guten Mutes
in die Zukunft. (Michael
Kube, Schweizer
Musikzeitung)Mit
bemerkenswerter
Konsequenz wird die
Neuherausgabe von
Studienpartituren
fortgesetzt. Fast
unnotig, zu erwahnen,
dass die
uberdurchschnittliche
Seitenaufteilung, der
vorbildlich klarer Druck
das Studium auch eines so
bekannten Werkes zu einer
genussreichen Freude
machen. (Das
Liebhaberorchester)
