About <strong>Wiener</strong> <strong>Urtext</strong> <strong>Edition</strong><br />
<strong>Wiener</strong> <strong>Urtext</strong> <strong>Edition</strong> is a highly acclaimed critical edition of musical works from the<br />
baroque to the early modern period. The musical text itself is edited by experienced musicologists<br />
from all available sources such as – autograph manuscripts, first editions, copyists’<br />
manuscripts and engravers’ copies. In some cases, this material is given thorough<br />
analysis for the first time.<br />
The extensive notes provided include: information about the work, its genesis and the<br />
significance of its place in musical history as well as the methods applied to the editorial<br />
work. Despite their necessary briefness, the critical notes clearly account for editorial<br />
decisions and with reference back to the sources.
