Introducting his new player-friendly edition of the Haydn
Quartets, Simon Rowland-Jones writes:
'There can be no such thing as a final, perfect version; Haydn
left too many questions open.'
The new Peters Edition is founded upon this honest assessment.
By heightening our awareness of the questions that remain
'open', this edition liberates the interpretative inspiration of
performers as never before. As a result, the new edition is likely
to become indispensable for all who perform or study these
masterpieces.
Each volume includes:
• Full Score - included with the parts for the first time -
invaluable for performance preparation
• Fold-out Pages - as required in the separate parts,
eliminating all page-turns within movements
• Guidance for Performers - as well as giving
historical background to the quartets, the prefaces to each
volume contain a treasure trove of information about all
aspects of performance practice
• Critical Commentary - in the extensive Critical Commentary
to each volume the most authoritative early sources for
Haydn's quartets are carefully evaluated and full details of
their variant readings given for comparison.
Naturally, the composer's autograph, where extant, assumes preeminence,
but alternative primary sources are also considered,
and secondary sources drawn upon where appropriate.

Right@Sight
An innovative sight-reading course
• Violin Grade 1 - EP7831
• Violin Grade 2 - EP7832
• Violin Grade 3 - EP7833
• Cello Grade 1 - EP7841
• Cello Grade 2 - EP7842
• Cello Grade 3 - EP7843
Right@Sight differs radically from other sight-reading courses:
• Each book contains a CD of accompaniments designed to
encourage students to sight-read rhythmically and musically,
even between lessons.
• Duet parts enable teachers to play along with their students,
encouraging confident and rhythmic playing
• Guidance notes based on the mnemonic TRaK (Time
signature, Rhythm & Key) which helps students develop a
disciplined approach to sight-reading
• On Your Own sections present sight-reading examples in
exam format (without guidance notes or accompaniments)
• A progressive graded structure takes the student "beyond
the grade", bridging the gap to the next grade (grades relate
to the ABRSM system)
