Beethoven Symphony No 1 in C Major Op. 21 Barenreiter Urtext Full Score

Beethoven Symphony No 1 in C Major Op. 21 Barenreiter Urtext Full Score

Between 1996 and 2000 Bärenreiter published scholarly-critical editions of Beethoven's Nine Symphonies edited by the first class musicologist Jonathan Del Mar. The editorial process was a huge undertaking because of the complex source situation regarding Beethoven's Symphonies culminating in the Choral Symphony which came down to us in nearly 20 different sources. So it was not surprising that Bärenreiter's new Urtext edition caused a considerable stir in the music world.
