Die Entführung Aus Dem Serail : German singspiel in three acts

“I know for a fact that the Emperor is proposing to mount a German opera in Vienna, and that he is making every effort to find a young Kapellmeister who understands German, has talent and is capable of striking out on a newpath. [...] I think it would be a good thing for me provided, of course, that the pay is good. If the Emperor will give me a thousand gulden, I will write a German opera for him.”Thus Mozart in a letter of 1011 January 1778 from Mannheim to his father, Leopold. He continued by asking his father to “write to every good friend in Vienna you can think of and say that it is in my power to do honor to the Emperor. If he won’t take meonany other terms, then let him try me with an opera. After that he can do what he likes for all I care.”Urtext of the New Mozart EditionFull score (BA4591-01), vocal score (BA4591-90) and studyscore format 22.5 x 16.5cm (TP311) available for salePerformance material available for hire (BA4591-72)

Spazio Immergente

Innovative work by the Siemens prize winner 2018 (the “Nobel prize” of music)Beat Furrer’s Duo “Spazio Immergente I” (everlasting space) leads an over2000-year-old text of visionary breadth into fascinating worlds of sound – with voice, language, and breath. The ancient poet Lucretius describes a concept of dislimitation and apocalypse, whose timelessness lends thischallenging, musically innovative dialogue an incomparable urgency: “... that the walls of the universe do not suddenly flee like flames into an unfathomable void, ... and nothing, not a vestige remains –abandonedspace.”– Valuable addition to the repertoire– Impressive concertante duo

Samson HWV 57

Handel composed Samson directly after completing the 'Messiah'. After its premiere in 1743 in the Covent Garden Theatre in London, the work rapidly became one of the composer’s most successful oratorios alongside 'Esther' and'Judas Maccabaeus'. This probably had as much to do with the popular Old Testament story of the libretto as with Handel’s masterly shaping of the arias and choruses.By including some movements in the appendix, this editionmakes it possible for the first time to perform the work in its original 1741 version. The edition is based on the complete edition volume of the 'Halle Handel Edition' (BA 4099), offering the complete music text of theoratoriofor the first time.

Works For Male Choir - Equal Voices : Volume 2

With only one exception, Gade composed his works for male choir with accompaniment for Danish choral societies, numerous of which had been founded across the country since 1839. These societies were often closely connected with professional associations, making them equally important for musical and social matters.This volume contains five occasional works for male choir with accompaniment that were composed between around 1838 and 1883. Three of them were intended for church usage (two funerals and one wedding).Among the works for equal voices and accompaniment in this volume, “Aarstidsbilleder” op. 51 is the longest. It was composed for the women of The MusicSociety in Copenhagen and conducted by Gade himself during the 1871/72 seasons.The appendix contains works that were completed, but do not allow for definitive decisions regarding their final presentation.

Petite Messe Solennelle

The “Petite Messe solennelle” is the finest work of Rossini’s late years. He composed it between 1863 and 1864 at the age of 71 as a commission for Countess Louise Pillet -Will for the consecration of her private chapel, where the work received itsfirst performance in March 1864. Together with the “Stabat mater”, the mass is one of the composer’s mostimportant sacred works.The unusual instrumentation with two pianos and harmonium is entirely in keeping with the Neapolitan keyboard tradition of the 18th century which was cultivated in France in Rossini’s day. It forms a distinct contrast to the style of large-scalesacred compositions as written by, for example, Liszt and Bruckner. Rossini explained that he wrote the later orchestral version of the work dating from 1867 out of concern that if he did not do this, other composers might orchestrate the mass tooheavily in later arrangements.

Six Suites For Violoncello Solo : Bwv 1007-1012

Urtext edition with articulation markings - Soft-cover performing edition. When you think cello, you think of Bach’s immortal cello suites. The suites take centre stage in the cello literature. They aretimeless and beautiful and accompany cellists from their student years up through their professional career at the highest level. Appropriately and not surprisingly there are countless editions of the suites. But thecomposer’s autograph has not come down to us. It is lost and this circumstance has always been a major challenge for editors. The four surviving handwritten sources and the original first edition of 1824 differ inmanydetails, the articulation and phrasing being particularly ambiguous. At Bärenreiter, having published the New Bach Edition and presently publishing the New Bach Edition-Revised, we feel particularly committed tothe cello suites. We have approached the editorial problems from several angles and have published editions that meet the needs of students and professional performers alike. This new edition, based on volume 4 of the NewBach Edition – Revised (NBArev), now completes Bärenreiter’s collection of the cello suite editions. Andrew Talle has fundamentally reassessed the relations between the surviving sources and has drawn conclusionsregarding their evaluation and consequently the genesis of the suites. His evaluations are augmented with thorough discussions of the instrument for which the suites were conceived and the interpretative practices in Bach'sday. The musical text of the edition is based on these findings. It approaches the composer's original intentions as far as the sources will permit. Details regarding articulation were deemed as being viable and were addedto the musical text if they appeared in the majority of the sources. “This edition does not present a perfect reconstruction of the lost autograph; no editor could claim to do so. Instead, I have attempted to providemusicians and scholars with a reliable version of the surviving musical text of the six cello suites and to shed light on the options which the Bach sources offer.” - Urtext edition with articulation by the editor on

Faust : Opera with a Prologue and four Acts (First version) / Opera in five Acts (Second version)

Charles Gounod’s “Faust” secured its international recognition in the version as an entirely sung opera, which from thenceforth has largely obscured the fact that the work was originally composed with spoken dialogues. The earlyversions staged prior to the 1869 performance at the Paris Opéra containing substantial unknown material and with dialogues and melodramas are the subject of this new edition. (The third version “version opera” was published in aseparate edition BA 8713 in 2016.)Even as the rehearsals were taking place at the Théâtre-Lyrique in 1858, during the first series of performances at the theatre in 1859, furthermore as the 1862 revival was approaching andduring the performances on the smaller stage at the Place du Châtelet, there were constant changes and revisions. It is, thus, impossible to identify manifestly definitive versions. Nevertheless, by drawing on the entire sourcematerial now at hand (including fascinating material only recently discovered) and on the whole gamut of aspects communicated by the reception, Paul Prévost systematically presents us with a score laid out in two main versions inwhose chronology constancy and change become transparent. With all the musical changes having been documented, the result is a practicable score for performances which reveals a still far too unknown “Faust” – a “Faust” that isrooted in the tradition of the opéra comique.Quite a few musical numbers are published as a score for the first time in this edition: the trio for Faust, Wagner and Siebel “À l’étude ô mon maître”, the duet of Valentin andMarguerite “Adieu, mon bon frère!”, Méphistophélès’ air “Maître Scarabée”, Siebel’s romance “Versez vos chagrins dans mon âme!”, Valentin’s air with chorus “Chaque jour, nouvelle affaire”, the chorus of witches “Un deux et trois”,and also seven melodramas whose missing or incomplete orchestration has been written for our edition. It was only recently that the long-lost second part of Faust’s original cavatina “Salut! demeure chaste et pure” was unearthed.Only in details of orchestration do other numbers differ from the well-known pieces.
