No serious musician and no serious orchestra can ignore this new Urtext edition of a major work of concerto literature, since the music text frequently diverges from that of previous editions. All the sources were meticulously examined, text-critically evaluated and documented for the very first time. This resulted in many corrections of notes, articulation signs and dynamic markings that had been faultily transmitted to this day.
The editing and marking of the solo parts by Frank-Peter Zimmermann (Violin) and Tabea Zimmermann (Viola) are a crowning point in this co-production with the G. Henle Verlag.
"Whatever the performer's taste, this edition is recommended as a substitute for all previous editions, although, as we have seen." (Judy Tarling, ESTA)
