| Hector Berlioz: Benvenuto Cellini: Opera: Vocal ScoreBenvenuto Cellini premiered in 1838 is inspired by the life of the legendary Florentine goldsmith and Renaissance figure. The premiere was a disatster yet even by Berlioz s high standards it contains music of exceptional inventiveness and beauty.The work is challenging not least due to the three versions which exist:the original version (Paris 1) as Berlioz composed itthe version premiered in Paris (Paris 2) after rehearsal and copied into an archival full scorethe Weimar version based on the revival in 1852 following changes suggested by LisztOur edition offers a solution to the problem of publishing operas which have been heavilyrevised by their composers so that any of its many versions may be adopted on stage today.Urtext of the New Berlioz EditionFull score (BA5441) and vocal score (French) with a supplementary libretto French-German (BA5441-90) available for salePerformance material (BA5441-72) available for hire
