Joseph Haydn
The Oratorios - 4 Volumes in a Slipcase
We are marking Joseph Haydn’s anniversary year (the bicentenary of his death) in style. We are not only publishing very affordable study scores of all of his oratorios, following the musical text in the Haydn Complete Edition, but have also collected them together in a slipcase. Aside from the musical text, each volume contains a preface in three languages reflecting the latest in scholarly research and a critical report with key information concerning the sources and textual criticism. These study editions are a feast for the eyes and have been produced with long-term use in mind.
All in all a total of almost 2,000 pages of Henle Urtext filled with oratorio artistry at – our gift to the world of music!

About the Composer

Joseph Haydn
His immense oeuvre documents the profound changes in music history during the second half of the eighteenth century, leading to the emancipation of instrumental music. His most important genres are the symphony and the string quartet, where he cultivated the technique of motivic-thematic development; he made significant contributions to the instrumental concerto and to piano music; during the last years of his life, he composed his great oratorios. Opera and art song take on a rather subordinate significance.

Zum Haydn-Jahr wartet der Henle Verlag mit einem regelrechten Schnäppchen auf: Im Schuber bietet der Verlag die Studienpartituren der vier Oratorien des Jubilars zu einem Preis an, den der Rezensent angesichts des üblichen Preisniveaus zuerst für einen Druckfehler gehalten hat. … Insgesamt ist die Ausstattung der vier Bände nicht nur mustergültig, sondern weit über dem Niveau, auf dem heute Studienpartituren zumeist angeboten werden: Neben dem hohen wissenschaftlichen Anspruch bieten alle vier Bände das klare und übersichtliche Druckbild der Gesamtausgaben aus dem Hause Henle. Papierqualität und Fadenbindung sind tadellos, die Bände in Leinen gebunden und mit einem Lesebändchen versehen. So verdient dieser Schuber in jeder Hinsicht das Prädikat: Höchst empfehlenswert!
Musica Sacra, 2009Zum genaueren Studium empfiehlt sich die nagelneue Ausgabe der Studienpartitur. Der Henle-Verlag hat soeben einen Schuber mit dem Urtext der vier Haydn-Oratorien herausgebracht – Editionen auf dem neuesten Stand der Forschung mit sorgfältiger, auch für Laien gut lesbarer Einführung in die Werke.
Kirchensite.de, 2009All these scores derive from Joseph Haydn Werke, and it is excellent that they are made available for the bicentary.
Early Music Review, 2009Aunque se ha optado por formato de estudio, supone un auténtico lujo.
Ritmo, 2009推荐
