The Richard
Wagner Complete Edition
presents the composer's
entire output for the
first time in a reliable
form. The conductor
Michael Balling, in the
early years of the 20th
century, attempted to
make Wagner's work more
accessible for research
and performance, but the
edition only reached 10
volumes - some with grave
shortcomings - and was
discontinued after
Balling's death in 1925.
A further attempt at a
complete edition by Otto
Strobel was abandoned at
the preliminary
stages.This third attempt
at a complete edition
will be the first
scholarly, critical
edition, based on an
evaluation of all the
accessible source
materials and the latest
findings of serious
Wagner research. As the
edition is also intended
for practical
performance, the musical
text has been kept free
of philological
insertions; these are
listed in the appendices
of each volume in the
Critical Commentary.
Numerous, partly
unpublished works - some
relatively unknown - and
variant versions are
published here for the
first time. The edition
presents authentic texts
for Wagner specialists
and researchers and
critically based
performing materials.
Contrary to widely held
opinions, even the
well-known works of
Wagner are not
necessarily available in
reliable editions. The
genesis, history and
performances directed by
Wagner himself are
extensively documented so
as to present as complete
an image as possible of
Wagner's compositional
intentions.
