Trio

I compare the copy I received with my school library's copy (which I have been using it to learn the music for more than a month). Both are from Schott, same cover and layout, same good quality of printing. But the one that I received apparently is a newer...

print because all the printing errors (wrong notes, missing accidentals) appeared in the older version are gone. I'm happy with my purchase.

This is a beautiful score, and a very challenging part of the horn repertoire. The score and parts are clearly presented, and the paper and printing quality is top class. There is a separate page listing errata for the piano part, which should be able to be incorporated with little...

difficulty once translated from the German.

I first heard this music in a concert with a friend. She hated it viscerally and several years on she still shudders if I so much as mention the word 'Ligeti'. I was... intrigued and extremely impressed by the playing, but I had to buy a recording and listen to...

it a few times before I started to enjoy the piece. I'm a decent amateur, but I'm sceptical as to whether I will ever be able to play it. It goes to high e-flat, and is rhythmically complex. There are a number of 'special effects' such as harmonic series played with different valve settings. The piece calls for great delicacy, and although I own higher and faster music, this is probably the most demanding piece that I own. This edition is very nicely printed on high quality paper. Despite the use of 3-page pullouts, a page-turner or three would probably still be required for a performance. The piano part seems to have a lot of mistakes, judging by the errata sheet included.
