3 Poemes Pour Piano D'Apres Aloysius Bertrand. Composed by Maurice Ravel. Edited by Jochen Reutter Theodor Hirsbrunner. Full score. With Standard notation. Wiener Urtext/Vienna Urtext #UT050261. Published by Wiener Urtext/Vienna Urtext (PR.UT050261).ISBN 9783850556590. UPC: 800522002250.
Maurice Ravel's Gaspard de la nuit ranks among the most important piano works of the 20th century and, as it were, represents the pinnacle of the extension of the piano playing techniques and tonal possibilities which started in the 19th century. Ravel took poems by Aloysius Bertrand as a basis of the three movements Ondine, Le Gibet and Scarbo. Thus, he follows the 19th-century tradition to combine instrumental music with literary works. The new edition of Wiener Urtext not only consulted the first edition, which has been used almost exclusively up to now, but also Ravel's autograph and his personal copy of the first edition on the basis of which numerous passages in the musical text could be corrected. Additional information from personal copies of Ravel pupils are analyzed in the Notes on Interpretation. This edition also features a glossary in three languages of the French performance instructions used by Ravel as well as English and German translations of the three poems by Bertrand.

Beautiful large print!
The large print is great, but some of the fingering is questionable. I prefer the Alfred edition for fingering, but the notes are so small! This is a good backup copy for me.

Readable
Much easier to read, due to the larger pages and notes, than the Dover Edition of Ravel Piano Masterpieces. Excellent print quality and so far pretty good fingering recommendations. Lots of supplementary information as well, including a glossary to translate the French terms.
