ISBN 9790006499465. 31 x 24.3 cm inches. Key: D minor. Text Language: German/English.

Between 1996 and 2000 Barenreiter published scholarly-critical editions of Beethoven's Nine Symphonies edited by the first class musicologist Jonathan Del Mar. The editorial process was a huge undertaking because of the complex source situation regarding Beethoven's Symphonies culminating in the Choral Symphony which came down to us in nearly 20 different sources. So it was not surprising that Barenreiter's new Urtext edition caused a considerable stir in the music world.

Since publication, Del Mar's edition enjoys the unabashed praise of conductors, performers and critics alike and has become the most widely used publication of the Beethoven Symphonies which can be heard not only every day in concert halls, but also on CD recordings by John Eliot Gardiner, David Zinman, Jos van Immerseel and Claudio Abbado.

    I have a copy of the 9th for myself and recently gifted a friend with one. Barenreiter isn't cheap, but it really is the best quality both in terms of the accuracy of the edition as well as the physical quality of the score. (Nice, thick paper - and every...

    page corresponds with one page in the manuscript: no nested pages!) If you're looking for an authoritative reference that you can have for literally decades, Barenreiter is your choice. Highly recommended for conductors or anyone who would like a large, clear reference. (The study editions are great, but very small!)All in all, you're talking about the 9th here - one of the greatest artistic achievements in the history of the human race: get an edition you can have for years and pass down to future music lovers. In other words, get Barenreiter. Routine buyer here.
