Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy created a standard work with his final violin concerto in E minor op. 64 MWV O 14 that is now firmly established in today's concert repertoire. When in 1838 the composer indicated that he had in mind a violin concerto [...] in E minor [...], it was not only his friend Ferdinand David, the Gewandhaus concertmaster for whom it was intended, who was euphoric. The whole civilized violin world was awaiting this concerto - and yet it was another seven years before the much-anticipated composition was ultimately published by the Leipzig publishing house Breitkopf & Hartel in June 1845, as well as simultaneously in London and Milan. The concerto particularly appeals through its innovative treatment of the solo part, not only because the solo violin strikingly opens the first movement without a preceding orchestral tutti, but also because of its musical dialogue with the orchestra. The Leipzig Gewandhaus premiere on 13 March 1845 with Ferdinand David as soloist under the direction of Nils Wilhelm Gade served - as so frequently with Mendelssohn - virtually as a proofreading process. After the composer subsequently made extensive changes that also involved David, the work first appeared just short of nine months later. The first edition documents the composer's valid final revision, which is reproduced as the work's main version in the present Urtext edition.The matching piano reduction includes not only an unmarked string part, but also a part with the established markings by Igor Oistrach.

“The adaptation of Brahms' four symphonies by the composer Friedrich Hermann (1828-1907), written during the composer's lifetime and published one year after his death, in 1898, are exemples of how this orchestral effect can be created through the addition of another pianist. Hermann called them 'works for pianoforte 4 hands with violin and violoncello.'Members of piano trios have repeatedly expressed the desire for a usable chamber version of the Double Concerto, Op. 102 of Brahms; this wish is now being granted for the first time with the transference of the orchestral material in the spirit of Friedrich Hermann.Taking the concerto character into consideration, the solo parts are only added to complete the piano part in the grand tutti of the first movement and in other brief tutti sections; this work is not to be regarded as a piano trio in the traditional sense. In a few places, the dynamics (originally conceived for the large orchestral apparatus) have been carefully adjusted to fulfil the requirements of balance and transparency so necessary in chamber music.”(Cord Garben).

The publishers Henle and Breitkopf & Hartel are continuing their collaboration, now with Brahms, by publishing the performance material of the double concerto. Brahms's last work with orchestra was published in the new Brahms Complete Edition in 2002, whereby the editor was able to base himself on newly accessible sources. Of particular interest are the additional performance instructions for the solo violin and solo cello, which were gathered from the first edition of the solo parts. These indications were supplied by the soloists of the first performance, Joseph Joachim and Robert Hausmann. No doubt authorized by Brahms, they communicate valuable insights into the performance practice of the time. The new material also contains a part in which the solo violin and cello are notated one above the other. The trio edition for violin, violoncello and piano (EB 6040), which was made by Brahms himself, has proven itself for chamber performances; it continues to be available.The full score is a conductor's dream: big, bold, and beautifully laid out on glare-free bluff paper.

The source of the present edition of the Oboe Concerto in A minor by Antonio Vivaldi is the Collected Works of Vivaldi, edited by Malipiero, published by Ricordi 1955. The title of the original score is Concerto in La minore per oboe, archi e cembalo the original setting: Oboe, Violini I-II, Viole, Violoncelli, Contrabassi and Cembalo. The arrangement for oboe and piano is kept in accurate conformity with the musical text of score, the continuo part - however - has been more freely adapted (of course within the possibilities of baroque style). The piano part contains the entire orchestral material in the Tutti-s, thus the soloist is not obliged to play all the Tutti parts.However, in Movement I and III the first and last Tutti may never be omitted by the performer. Die Grundlage dieser Ausgabe des Oboenkonzertes in A-Moll von Antonio Vivaldi ist die von Malipiero redigierte Gesamtausgabe (Ricordi, 1955). Der Titel der Originalpartitur lautet: Concerto in La minore per oboe, archi e cembalo: die Besetzung ist folgende: Oboe, Violini I-II, Viole, Violoncelli, Contrabassi, Cembalo. Die Ausgabe für Oboe und Klavier ist dem Urtext der Partitur getreu, doch ist die Ausarbeitung des Continuos etwas freier behandelt (natürlich nur im Rahmen der vom Stil der Barockmusik gebotenen Möglichkeit). Die Klavierstimme enthält an den Tuttistellen das Stimmaterial des ganzen Orchesters: der Solist ist daher nicht verpflichtet, sämtliche Tuttimitzuspielen. (Im I. und III. Satz dürfen jedoch die ersten und letzten Tutti vom Solisten nicht weggelassen werden.
