Mozart, Wolfgang Amadeus La clemenza di Tito K. 621 Facsimile of Mozart's autograph score The Seven Great Operas in Facsimile Editions of Mozart?s Autograph Scores ?Idomeneo?, ?Die Entführung aus dem Serail?, ?Le nozze di Figaro?, ?Don Giovanni?, ? Così fan tutte ?, ?Die Zauberflöte ?, ?La clemenza di Tito? ? Mozart?s seven great operas, his brilliant contribution to music theatre and world culture, are unequalled in their depth of human characterisation and musical expression. Through happy coincidence, all seven opera scores have survived almost complete in Mozart?s manuscript. The Packard Humanities Institute (PHI, Los Altos , California ) has now embarked on producing a facsimile edition of the seven autograph scores. Mozart scholars, libraries and of course all lovers of Mozart?s stage works now have the opportunity of acquiring these priceless manuscripts in flawless reproductions. At the same time, all risks about preserving Mozart?s legacy for the world of music are taken care of. The Packard Humanities Institute (PHI) charitable foundation, known for its philanthropic programmes in the arts and sciences, has forged an ideal cooperation for the Mozart project. Under the scholarly direction of an editorial board (Ulrich Konrad , David Packard, Wolfgang Rehm , Christoph Wolff; General editor Dietrich Berke) the International Mozarteum Foundation Salzburg and the libraries where Mozart?s manuscripts are held are working together with the Packard Humanities Institute. The production of the volumes is exquisite, for the digitalization of the manuscripts has been undertaken using the latest technology, which allows for an astounding level of authenticity and precision in detail. The printing follows the uncompromisingly high standards demanded by the edition. All seven volumes include essays on the history of literature and ideas by Hendrik Birus , Hans Joachim Kreutzer and Robert Miller as well as musicological introductions by leading Mozart scholars in German and English. The facsimile edition will be distributed by Bärenreiter- Verlag . - consolidation of Mozart manuscripts held in different places - highest level of precision in reproduction and authenticity of colour through use of the latest technology - unique offer thanks to project sponsorship by the Packard Humanities Institute (Los Altos, California) Precision in reproduction thanks to cutting edge technology In preparing the manuscripts for reproduction, equipment was used in line with the highest technical standards currently available. Mozart?s original manuscripts of the seven operas are held by several libraries. For five of the operas, the different acts have even ended up in different libraries following World War II. Thus, the autograph of Act I of ? Così fan tutte ? is in the Jagiellonian Library in Kraków and the second act in the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin ? Preußischer Kulturbesitz . In order to achieve a uniformly high level of precision in reproduction and authenticity of colour both within a work and for all seven editions, the use of the same technical equipment in all the different places was a prerequisite. Specialist from the Salzburg firm ? Kirchberger Photography? were employed, were provided with the latest equipment by the Packard Humanities Institute and also given special additional training in the modern technology by specialists in the USA. Proofs of each edition were compared with the original in each location and improved until the likeness could not be bettered in all details. Mozart?s music and text notation is reproduced extremely clearly, and even those places where Mozart corrected or had rubbed out marks he had already made, appear in these editions in a previously unmatched transparency.

This compilataion of thirty-six arias from Mozart's seven theatrical masterpieces moves from the youthful exuberance of 'The abduction from the Seragli' to the complex enchanting moral allegory of 'The Magic Flute' complete shortly before the composer's death in 1791. Together with all of the great soprano arias from these works are classic pieces from 'Idomeneo' 'The Marriage of Figaro' 'Don Giovanni' 'Cosi fan tutte' and 'La Clemenza di Tito'.

Opera seria in two acts-As remarkable as the quality of the compositions themselves is the astonishing rapidity with which Mozart composed his last two great operas ?Die Zauberflöte? K.620 and ?La clemenza di Tito? K.621: From first sketches and drafts to finished products some 800 pages of music penned within the six-month period from April to September 1791.Opinions of the work at the time of its première are as varied as the history of its reception. As a ?coronation? opera it initially lent itself to court festivities everywhere and because of its aspect of ?clemency? to charitable events. It survived in its own right as opera seria through the first twodecades of the 19th century then but for occasional performances (these sometimes with altered or added texts) fell into obscurity for the next 150 years.Urtext of the New Mozart EditionFull score (BA4554-01) vocal score (BA4554-90) and study score format 22.5 x 16.5cm (TP321) available for salePerformance material available for hire (BA4554-72)

Süssmayr-Version-The history of the genesis of the Requiem is entwined with legends and anecdotes. The burdens of the composition and performance of La Clemenza di Tito and Die Zauberflöte and an acute infection led to the collapse and death of the composer following a short illness. Mozart left his wife in considerable debt. Constanze therefore turned to Mozart?s friends asking them to complete the fragment. After two failed attempts the task passed to Mozart?s pupil Franz Xaver Süßmayr who completed the Requiem in the form known today using working materials that are no longer extant and perhaps verbal instructions from the composer. Today the Süßmayr version is still the most well known and it is doubtless the one with the closest historical ties to Mozart. Süßmayr?s version of the Requiem has been published in a new edition which is true to the original sources.
