New Issue Title
Drawing on the definitive scholarly-critical edition by Hendrik
Schulze et al., the renowned conductor, harpsichordist and organist
Jörg Halubek has joined forces with students from the State
University of Music and Performing Arts Stuttgart to present a
historically informed piano reduction of Claudio Monteverdi’s exciting
final opera, “L’incoronazione di Poppea”.
The vocal score contains all the appendices found in the full score
and includes an uncluttered piano reduction that lies well on the
instrument. Rounding off the edition is a detailed musicological
Foreword (Ger/Eng) by Emily Hagen providing information on the
work’s genesis, the history of its performance and reception.
In addition there is a Foreword on performance practice by early
music specialist Jörg Halubek.
• Urtext edition based on the full score edited by
Hendrik Schulze et al.
• Detailed appendix with variant readings and additions
from the Naples source
• Uncluttered piano part that lies well on the instrument
