Mendelssohn, Concerto in E minor, Op. 64 [HL:51480720]

Concerto in E minor, Op. 64.
Violin and Piano.
Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, Ed. Ullrich Scheideler.

Series/Edition: Henle Music Folios.
Format: Softcover.

For the first time this celebrated concerto will now appear in a source-critical edition. Ullrich Scheideler depicts how the work evolved, describes its sources, and comments on the musical text. The well-known violinist Igor Ozim has marked up Mendelssohn's approved violin part, adding fingering and bowing marks as an aid to today's performers. He has also supplied a separate commentary showing that Mendelssohn's autograph already contains useful suggestions for shaping the solo part. The piano reduction – a revised version of the one that accompanied the first edition – lies well under the fingers while remaining as faithful as possible to the original text.
