Critical Edition Study Score. Composed by Giuseppe Verdi. Edited by Fabrizio Della Seta. Study Score. Classical. Softcover. 525 pages. Ricordi #NR14165300. Published by Ricordi (HL.50601626).The Works of Giuseppe Verdi is the first critical edition of the composer's oeuvre. Together with his operas, the series offers his songs, choral music and sacred pieces, and string quartet and other instrumental works. This edition of La traviata presents the 1854 version as the main score and also makes available in full score the original 1853 settings of the revised pieces. Fabrizio Della Seta used not only the composer's autograph and many secondary sources but also Verdi's previously unknown sketches. These sketches helped corroborate the original readings and illuminate the work's compositionalstages. The editor's wide-ranging introduction traces the opera's genesis, sources, and performance history, while a detailed critical commentary discusses source problems and ambiguities.
