Siegfried Petrenz based his piano reduction (Pianoforte II) on the music text of the Complete Edition . It affords the greatest possible transparency for the pianist, as well as the best premises for effective practice and performance. The music text is preceded by the editor's preface, which sheds light above all on the eventful genesis of the work and on the first performances. Mendelssohn played the solo part himself at the world premiere in Birmingham in 1837, and the work achieved great renown in the composer's lifetime thanks to various soloists and three printed editions.
A repertoire work in an Urtext performing edition. EB 8655 is printed in score form; two copies are needed for performance.
