Along with the Stamitz concerto, Hoffmeister's Viola Concerto is the most important audition piece for viola players. Yet, it has been handed down in a complicated source tradition, surviving in a single contemporary manuscript covered with many layers of markings. Our piano reduction reconstructs, for the first time, the earliest textual layer in this source, thereby coming as close as possible to Hoffmeister's actual intentions. The reconstructed original is accompanied by a detailed critical commentary. Fingering and bowing marks have been added by no less a musician than Kim Kashkashian!

Buy another version
This piece is a wonderful one! Great for college auditions and performances! Go violas!But this particular version is not very good, alot of the bowings are missing, some of the notes are wrong, and it's not changing clefs where it should be, confusing the soloist.A lot of the tempos are wrong, saying grace eighth note, quarter note, then two eights notes should actually be just 4 eighth notes.The trills also, there are missing trills and most of the trills should have an upper modent following it with the half/quarter note.Measures are missing also.The rest is fine, the cadenza is ok, but I suggest getting another version.

Typical Concerto for Orchestral Auditions
Finally an Urtext edition of this famous concerto edited by Henle Verlag. This edition includes two viola parts: one completely blank from fingerings that refers directly to the manuscript, with some very little but explained modifications from the editor, and the other that is basically the same of the first but with fingerings and some bowings from the famous violist Kim Kaskashan. This concert is artistically incomparable with some masterpieces of his time period, but this edition is a must-have for every violist that wants to play it with the awareness of his source version, free of modifications made by others.
