Ludwig van Beethoven
Vocal Works with Orchestra - 6 Volumes in a Slipcase
G. Henle Publishers bundles all of Beethoven’s vocal works with orchestra in one complete package that will make the hearts of singers beat faster. From the two masses and Beethoven’s only oratorio, to his popular Choral Fantasy and setting of Goethe’s “Meeres Stille und Glückliche Fahrt”, to “Ah perfido!” and other solo arias, this slipcase provides an opportunity to study the entire range of Beethoven’s vocal art – at the highest level of quality of course. All of the study editions are based on the text from the Beethoven Complete Edition with footnotes that refer to interesting questions about the edition and performance. In concise prefaces, the editors give insight into the current state of research regarding genesis and performance history.

About the Composer
Ludwig van Beethoven
No composer has had as profound and sustained an influence on immediately following generations to the present day as Beethoven. His instrumental music, especially his symphonies, served as touchstones for symphonic composition throughout the nineteenth century. The extraordinarily high standard of his music and his relative independence as a freelance composer have led to his being characterized as the greatest composer of all time.

La qualité des préfaces est un sacré atout, en particulier pour le grand nombre d’oeuvres plutôt méconnues qui composent ce volume.
Crescendo Magazine, 2020Von einigen der Beethoven’schen Vokalwerke mit Orchester waren bislang keine Studienpartituren käuflich zu erwerben. ... Der Henle-Verlag schuf diesem Desiderat im Laufe der vergangenen zwei Jahrzehnte nach und nach Abhilfe, indem man nach Erscheinen der einzelnen Vokalwerke in der dort beheimateten neuen Gesamtausgabe jedes mal auch bald die jeweilige Studienpartitur folgen ließ. Zum Beethoven-Jahr 2020 sind diese Bände nun auch alle in einer gegenüber den Einzelpreisen vergünstigten Box erhältlich.
das Orchester, 2020Kurz gefasste Vorworte mit Informationen zur Entstehungsgeschichte und Fussnoten mit Verweisen zu Edition und Aufführung genügen höchsten Qualitätsstandards und machen diese Ausgabe zu einem Must-have für interessierte Sänger und Dirigentinnen.
