Until his appointment as composition teacher at the Musikhochschule ofCologne in 1957, Bernd Alois Zimmermann earned his living chiefly byarranging works of other composers for the radio. Vier Bearbeitungen (FourArrangements) for the Ellegiers Sextet was written at the WDR in Cologne at that time. Zimmermann held the concertmaster Ellegiers in high esteem because of his profound musicality and arranged about twenty pieces for his ensemble between 1949 and 1952. The three Schubert arrangements'Sehnsuchtswalzer', 'Landler' and 'Moments musicaux', as well as 'Traumerei' from Kinderszenen Op. 15 by Robert Schumann show very clearly how popular these works were in the radio programme of the broad-casting station.

How vast is Mendelssohn's oeuvre? Most of his approx. 750 compositions were still unpublished in the 1960s. The publication of many early works within the framework of the Complete Edition has been gratefully noted by the musical world. Yet a scholarly, scientific overview of Mendelssohn's works was still missing. He was the last great composer of the 19th century without a complete work catalogue. Ralf Wehner's thematic catalogue closes this gap.It organizes the body of works into 26 groups and assigns each work its own MWV number. Within the groups, the individual pieces are arranged chronologically. Also included in the MWV are all known collective manuscripts and prints, information on works of dubious authenticity and on Mendelssohn's arrangements, as well as his editions of works by other composers. Wehner's work is based on the examination of material and information from more than 1,500 libraries, c. 15,000 auction catalogues and about 12,000 letters. The succinct account of the history of the work, its publication and reception gives the MWV its profile as a compact study edition.An overview on the MWV numbering system you will find on the webiste of the Sachsische Akademie der Wissenschaften zu Leipzig.
