Ferruccio Busoni died in 1924, leaving his last opera Doktor Faust incomplete. The premiere took place posthumously with the addenda by Busoni’s student Philipp Jarnach. This edition, released in advance of the Busoni anniversary (100th anniversary of his death), contains many improved passages and is aligned with the full score.

The idea behind this work was to combine a major speaking role with a part for a female singer and orchestra in the spirit of the opera buffa. The overall tone is pacifistic and anti-bourgeois. Busoni’s inspiration was that of an opera-play in the style of Italian improvised comedy.
Available Format: Sheet Music
All pieces can be performed by mixed choir a cappella or with organ accompaniment. The scoring ranges from three to eight voices and the length and difficulty of the pieces cover a broad range. Suitable for a wide variety of choirs and ensembles.

The composition process for the Fourth Symphony was not an easy one and in the end Sibelius was only just able to finish the work in time for the premiere in spring 1911. This extraordinary work was at first found difficult to understand although its technical brilliance was recognized. The appreciation of the Fourth has, however, grown in the course of years.
