Comm issioned by Mobius for its tenth anniversary project, and first performed by them at the Wigmore Hall on 22 March 2008, Emerging (lightly) is a showcase for solo viola, flute, clarinet, harp, two violins and cello. The music is fleet and light, concerned with the developing relationship between two contrasting ideas that is mediated by the solo instrument. Writing in The Times, Richard Morrison praised Emerging (lightly) for its musical argument: 'Here the viola was the still centre of a quicksilver polyphonic whirl, before intoning a haunting folk-like tune over an oasis of calm G major. The impression was of a serene character quelling fractious colleagues. Intriguing and stimulating ...'.

A Journey Through 300 Years of Publishing-House HistoryHow to get 300 years of a company's history, combined with an equally long period of music and cultural history, between two book covers in a sophisticated and sensible way? How to select from the nearly incalculable quantity of material, how to separate essentials from what is less important? The start of the narrative is easy to find in the events of January 1719, though not so, where and when a break or even a turning point along its course ought to be made. During the last three years, our editor Thomas Frenzel has been confronted daily with such daunting questions.The result is not just a chronicle or publishing-house history. You will rather be granted a keyhole glimpse, and you will be taken on a journey through 300 years of European music and cultural history. Illustrated is the formation of the entire music publishing industry as well as the emergence of Leipzig as a city of music and the center of the world book trade, together with the fact that Breitkopf & Hartel significantly contributed to both developments. The highest standards of content, paper, printing, and binding emphasize the intrinsic value of this Breitkopf & Hartel production - unique in 300 years.504 pages in full color printing Chronicle of the firm's important events Essays on selected topicsHistorical visual and textual documents, anecdotes and all sorts of curiosities High-quality linen covers with dust jacketAbout 620 illustrations.

The career of Jan Ladislav Dussek (1760-1812) was notable for its peripateticism. Starting out in his native Bohemia Dussek spent periods of time in Germany and the Netherlands, settling in London for about ten years in the 1790s, progressing to Hamburg and ending his days in Paris. Although his activities centred on the piano, like so many musicians of his day Dussek branched out from performing and composing to encompass teaching, publishing and instrument retail, with varying success. A plethora of reviews and biographical accounts attest to Dussek’s renown throughout Europe as a pianist and composer, particularly when it came to sensitive and cantabile playing; and he interacted with some of the most eminent musicians, artists and political figures of his time. Dussek’s reputation declined sharply in the nineteenth century, however, and with the exception of isolated revivals of his work, for instance in London in the mid-nineteenth century, he has remained on the verge of obscurity in the minds of many musicians and music-lovers until the present day: even his well-known innovation of placing the piano sideways-on to the audience to display his striking profile is often mistakenly attributed to Franz Liszt. Although Dussek has provided the subject of a number of student dissertations over the years, in the published literature he has largely been restricted to cameo appearances or brief entries in historical surveys.
The bicentennial anniversary of Dussek’s death provides a fitting occasion for bringing together scholars from all parts of the world to produce the first multi-author, multi-lingual study of the composer. Several chapters deal with aspects of Dussek’s biography and iconography that receive only sparse treatment elsewhere; others survey the different branches of his output, including the piano sonatas, the piano concertos, the chamber music with and without harp and the three String Quartets, Op. 60, which are currently enjoying a revival via recordings and a new edition.
This book has two fundamental aims. One is to stimulate renewed interest in, and debate about, a less than celebrated – one might say unjustly neglected – figure. The other aim is to approach Dussek’s multi-facetted, geographically diverse career as an interface between ourselves and the music business at the beginning of the nineteenth century, whose complexity and vicissitudes emanated from the sociological dynamics and political events with which Dussek was, to an almost unique degree, inextricably associated. The highs and lows of Dussek’s career, the surviving contemporary accounts of Dussek the performer and composer, and the letters he exchanged with colleagues in several nations vividly portray the struggles of a worldly, ambitious, versatile and extremely perspicacious musician striving to carve out a place of eminence and material security for himself. This meant negotiating the complex progression, underway at this point in history, from the patronage system to the emergence of the artist as a socially and financially autonomous entity.

Dass das erste wissenschaftliche Symposium im deutschsprachigen Raum zum Schaffen Antonin Dvoraks 1991 im Rahmen der 2. Musikfestspiele Saar in Saarbrucken, also abseits der grossen Metropolen in der musikalischen Provinz an einem Ort stattfand, der keine direkte Verbindung zu diesem Komponisten aufweist, mag insofern bezeichnend erscheinen, als fur die internationale Musikwissenschaft Dvorak lange Zeit ein eher abseitiges Thema darstellte. In den letzten Jahren ist das vermehrte Interesse auch ausserhalb seines tschechischen Heimatlandes, auf das die Dvorak-Forschung bis dahin weitgehend konzentriert war, unubersehbar geworden. Nach den Prager Kolloquien, dem Dvorak-Kongress in New Orleans und der grossen Jubilaums-Konferenz in Dobris bot Saarbrucken eine weitere Gelegenheit, eine Zwischenbilanz der neueren Forschungsergebnisse in Tschechien, Grossbritannien, den USA, aber eben auch Deutschland zu ziehen, die in diesem Sammelband zur Diskussion gestellt werden.
