Great piece, music needs re-engraving
To concerto is an amazingly difficult but magnificent work for the cello with great drama and passion. This edition is looking a little tired. It needs to be re-engraved. The notation for the cello part is pretty dense and lines slightly uneven with the occasional gap in the lines on the first page in particular. (some of the naturals and sharps can look similar due to printing drop-outs.) It just needs to spaced out a little more. Some sections are clearer than others. There are similar issues in the piano reductions where some of the chords with thirds almost look like a single blob on the stave. On the positive side, the page turns are very well done. The typesetter has managed to put a bar/s of rest on the bottom of each right hand page to enable a page turn during a break in the music. Well done on that point. Some publishers seem to think everybody performs from memory. This is one piece that one might expect the performer to like to have the music in front of them.
