Die Verbreitung von Musik in den Medien und durch die zahlreichen grossen und kleinen Schallplattenfirmen hat in den letzten Jahren dazu gefuhrt, dass das Angebot beinahe unuberschaubar geworden ist. Den Grundpfeilern des Repertoires, den sinfonischen Werken etwa von Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms oder Bruckner, haben sich scheinbar entlegene Werke hinzugesellt, Werke, die man wiederentdeckt hat oder die falschlich unterschatzt worden sind.Dieser Entwicklung tragt der Konzertfuhrer Klassik. Orchestermusik von A-Z als neuartiges Lexikon Rechnung. Neuartig sind die Art der Werkauswahl, die versucht, eine Mischung zu sein zwischen getreuer Abbildung des Musiklebens und dem Wunsch, fur zu Unrecht vergessene Werke ein Wort einzulegen; die systematische Einteilung des mehrbandigen Konzertfuhrers Orchestermusik in musikalische Epochen; die Anlage als Lexikon, in dem Sachinformation und einfuhrende Werkanalyse einander erganzen, die Sprache, die sich bemuht, fachliche Informationen interessant und lesenswert nahezubringen; und die Anlage als Sammelband mit Beitragen verschiedener Autoren, die jeweils in ihren Spezialgebieten eingesetzt sind.Wulf Konold hat - als Herausgeber - ein wichtiges Feld einer nie geschwatzigen, sondern sachlich klaren Deutung abseits ublicher Konzertfuhrer bearbeitet. Da finden wir Flotenkonzerte von Devienne ebenso wie Posaunenkonzerte von Wagenseil, fruhe Haydn-Sinfonien oder eine E.T.A. Hoffmann-Sinfonie neben den bekannten Standardtiteln. Diese Publikation kann ein 'Schlager', ein Dauerbrenner werden.Wolf-Eberhard von Lewinski, Allgemeine Zeitung, Mainz.

Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy was commissioned by the city of Leipzig to write the Symphony Cantata Lobgesang for the 400th anniversary of the invention of the printing press by Johannes Gutenberg. The work was given its first performance in Leipzigs Thomaskirche on 25 June 1840. Another performance took place at the Birmingham Music Festival on 23 September 1840. The composer created a hybrid genre here, a formal designation that he took quite literally and which he used here for the first and only time: after the three symphonic movements have flowed one into the other attacca, comes the Lobgesang Cantata in several sections Alles, was Odem hat. The present Urtext edition is the first to take into account the parts which were written for the first performances in Leipzig and which help clear up a number of discrepant readings.,,Der Herausgeber hat sich die Muhe gemacht, die 1841 im selben Verlag erstveroffentlichte Partitur mit dem Erstdruck der Stimmen zu vergleichen und konnte mit im Stimmensatz gefundenen Angaben zur Artikulation, Dynamik etc. die neue Partitur enorm bereichern. (Hans Gebhard, Chor und Konzert )

The acclaimed percussionist Christian Dierstein has joined forces with a research group at the Basel Academy of Music to examine the techniques of percussion playing from an innovative perspective. The main focus falls less on the instruments than on their sound producers: beaters, mallets, sticks, bows, specific manual techniques up to and including electronic pulse generators. This book describes all of them in detail and illustrates their range of application in carefully selected and annotated examples from the repertoire.

Many essays by guest authors such as Nicolaus A. Huber, Steven Schick, Fritz Hauser and Bernhard Wulff relate the performance descriptions to ongoing aesthetic debates. They reveal that sound production and interaction with sound-generating objects have moved centre stage in contemporary composition and its expanded concepts of material and performance. The result is a comprehensive reference book for composers and performers that will also serve as a source of inspiration for future innovative approaches in percussion playing.
