Description

Mozart's horn concertos are undoubtedly among the finest in the repertoire, characterized by their melodic richness, dramatic flair, and virtuosic demands. Franz Giegling's editorial contributions to the New Mozart Edition represent the authoritative scholarly-critical edition, meticulously grounded in all available sources. The Bärenreiter piano reductions [BA 5311a, BA 5312a, BA 5313a] feature clear and idiomatic keyboard parts, designed for both performance and rehearsal with orchestral accompaniment.

These publications cater to the contemporary performer's requirements, offering well-organized solo horn parts in E-flat and F, along with a comprehensive historical preface discussing the sources. Additionally, a special brochure includes cadenzas and "Eingänge," featuring significant contributions from Dennis Brain, Timothy Brown, and Dominic Nunns, presented in E-flat and a slightly modified version for natural horn. All materials have also been transposed for the valve horn. Bärenreiter's performing editions of the flute and horn concertos are available in full scores, orchestral parts, study scores, and piano reductions.
