Description
"The Abduction from the Seraglio" is the last in Bärenreiter's series of seven Great Mozart Opera Overtures based on the Urtext of the "New Mozart Edition". It offers not only the version as Mozart left it i. e. without a concert ending but also the famous concert ending by Johann Anton André first published in 1807. The André concert ending, approx. 90 bars long, appears here re-edited and engraved after the first edition in parts as well as Andre's autograph which was generously made available by the Archive André. Short text: For the first time the performance material to these seven famous opera overtures is available on sale. All parts reflect the latest scholarly research of the acclaimed New Mozart Edition.
A score for vocalists that only contains the vocal lines. The instrumental parts are not there for reference. Generally, cheaper than a vocal score and requires multiple copies for purchase.
Facsimile of the Autograph
These are hardcover, research-quality reproductions of the original hand-written scores from the composer.
Hardcover
Some publishers print a hardbound, linen-covered version in addition to the standard paperback. The music inside is identical. These editions are beautiful though rarely cheap.
Orchestral Parts
Similar to a wind set, this is a collection of parts. In the case of strings, the numbers listed are the number of copies included, though generally these are available individually (often with minimum quantities required).
Paperback
When publishers offer multiple bindings (e.g. hardcover) or study scores, this is the "standard" version. If you're planning to play the music, this is probably what you want.
Performance / Playing Score
For chamber pieces, playing scores have all of the parts on one system. There are not separate parts for each player.
Score (Full Score)
For ensemble music, this indicates that the edition contains all parts on a single system (there are not separate parts for each player). In larger ensembles, this is for the conductor.
