Among the most frequently performed and well-known of P. I. Tchaikovsky's (1840-1893) works, The Year 1812, Solemn Overture, Op. 49 (more commonly known as the 1812 Overture) was written in 1880 to commemorate the 1812 defeat of Napoleon's invading French army by the Russians. Despite the composer's lack of enthusiasm about the project at its inception, claiming that he wrote it without any warm and loving feelings, Tchaikovsky acknowledged later that he did well in its composition, saying I absolutely do not know whether my overture (The Year 1812) is good or bad, but I rather think it is the former (pardon my immodesty). It premiered on August 20, 1882, in Moscow at the Art & Industry Exhibition, Ippolit Altani conducting. Famous for its use of cannons in the Finale, the Finale also calls for the inclusion of a military brass band, which is labelled as open instrumentation in the original. This edition by Martin Schmeling spells out specific instrumentation options for the banda. Instrumentation: 2+Picc.2+EH.2.2: 4.2+2.3.1: Timp.Perc(5-6): Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set): Banda ad lib [0.0.0.0: 4.2.2.2: Perc(3-4)].

A Tchaikovsky Urtext is no longer a rarity in Breitkopfs orchestral catalogue. Polina Vajdman has edited a very popular repertoire work that the composer personally did not think very highly of. He even confessed to having written the work without the warmth of love. Nevertheless, the piece is a masterful example of program music that seemingly casually interweaves two Russian folk songs, a liturgical melody of the Russian Orthodox Church and two national anthems, the Marseillaise and the Czars Hymn. The work was written for the consecration of the Christ the Savior Cathedral in Moscow, which was erected in memory of the victory over Napoleon in 1812. The first edition of the score, which was carefully corrected three times by Tchaikovsky, is the principal source for this Urtext edition. The wording of the title The Year 1812 corresponds to the composers words, but was oddly never included in the first edition.

Tchaikovsk y's Overture 1812 is one of the most widely recognizable works in all of music. A bold musical statement, it was composed in 1880 to commemorate the Russian victory over Napoleon's army in 1812. Scored by Michael Story and Robert Smith, this rendition is a perfect fit for the end of the second year of instruction. The characteristic melody builds to a dramatic punctuated conclusion. Stunning! (2:00).

Der 1810 von Carl Maria von Weber zusammen mit Alexander von Dusch, Johann Gansbacher, Giacomo Meyerbeer und Gottfried Weber begrundete Harmonische Verein hatte sich die Propagierung forderungswurdiger fremder und eigener Werke zur Aufgabe gesetzt. Gezielt suchte der Verein Zugang zur zeitgenossischen Presse und lieferte schliesslich Artikel fur etwa 20 Periodika. Veroffentlicht wurden Konzert- und Theaterbesprechungen, Rezensionen von Musikalien und Theoretika oder Berichte uber aktuelle Kulturereignisse. Mit diesem Band wird erstmals das Ausmass dieser planvollen Beeinflussung der offentlichen Meinung deutlich: Allein im Zeitraum von 1810 bis 1812 erschienen uber 200 Texte der Vereinsbruder. Publiziert werden alle erreichbaren Texte mit Ausnahme der Beitrage Carl Maria von Webers, die in den Samtlichen Schriften innerhalb der Weber-Gesamtausgabe erschienen sind.
