This Annotated Catalogue presents the most ambitious and comprehensive research ever carried out on the first editions of Chopin's music. It begins with an in-depth introduction to these unique sources and the publishing practices that gave rise to them. A detailed description then follows of each Chopin first edition and the later impressions produced by the original publishers or their successors. The Annotated Catalogue facilitates identification of the Chopin scores held in libraries and private collections around the world by attempting to reconstruct the creative history of each edition. It features entries on 1,552 distinct impressions - of which some 4,830 copies are individually described - along with explanatory essays, appendices and facsimiles of over 200 title pages which illustrate their respective catalogue entries. Musicians and musicologists alike will gain an unprecedented understanding of the creative history of each Chopin edition and the music within it.

(The whole work is complete in English and German). Since 2001 the more than 260,000 pages of music manuscripts, copies and first prints (from 17th to early 19th cent.) were revised by two musicologists which compiled an index of shelf marks and an index of composers. Thus detailed searches in the holdings of the archive (which were filmed since 2002 in severeal parts on microfiche at K. G. Saur) are possible for the first time. The Catalogue lists 9,735 works of 1.008 different composers. It provides also a concordance signature - microfiche and therefore serves as a cumulated guide to the microfiche editions, all the more the registers have been revised and improved. The unique collection is introduced by a number of articles bythe followingmusicologists: Axel Fischer (Archive of the Sing-Akademie, Berlin), Christoph Henzel (Hochschule fur Musik, Wurzburg), Klaus Hortschansky (University of Munster), Matthias Kornemann (Archive of the Sing-Akademie, Berlin), Ulrich Leisinger (Mozarteum, Salzburg), Mary Oleskiewicz (University of Massachusetts Boston), Ralph-J. Reipsch (Zentrum fur Telemann-Pflege und -Forschung, Magdeburg), Tobias Schwinger (Berlin).

• Violons et autographes : les collections musicales d'Eugène de Cessole
• Violins and Autographs : Eugène de Cessole's musical collections
• L'album d'autographes d'Eugène de Cessole, édition critique.

"Dans l'histoire de la musique à Nice, il existe un manuscrit dont la renommée est devenue mythique : l'album d'autographes musicaux du comte Eugène de Cessole (1805-1876), musicien dilettante et passionné. Cet ouvrage, précieusement conservé par la famille de Cessole, renferme les signatures des plus illustres compositeurs de son temps : Berlioz, Czerny, Donizetti, Glinka, Gounod, Liszt, Mendelssohn, Mercadante, Meyerbeer, Offenbach, Rossini, Verdi. Le comte de Cessole possédait aussi l'une des collections les plus prestigieuses de violons de la première moitié du XIXe siècle. Pour cette raison, l'album contient les autographes de violonistes virtuoses comme Paganini, Alard, Artôt, Bazzini, Becker, Bériot, Bull, Ernst, Lafont, Léonard, Sivori, Spohr, Vieuxtemps. La proximité du salon de Cessole avec l'Opéra de Nice explique aussi la présence d'autographes des plus grands chanteurs d'opéra tels Lablache, Lind, Maurel, Melba, Nilsson, Patti, Tamburini, Tamagno. Cet album n'est pas qu'un simple "livre d'or" de signatures, puisque chaque artiste l'a enrichi par un autographe musical, que ce soit une énigme musicale de quelques mesures ou un morceau entier. C'est là son exceptionnelle originalité. La présente publication montre pour la première fois l'intégralité des cent-huit pièces, souvent inédites, accompagnées d'une riche iconographie, de notices historiques et critiques. Ainsi pouvons-nous revivre la vie intense du salon de la famille Cessole où s'est retrouvée l'élite musicale internationale au XIXe siècle."--Page 4 of cover.

The Thomas Fisher Library at the University of Toronto houses a major collection of opera and oratorio librettos associated with performances across Europe. In addition to containing the text of musical dramas, these books incorporate aspects of historical detail and literary history, as well as biographical details of performers. The Baroque Libretto catalogues the Baroque Italian operas and oratorios in the Fisher Library and offers an analysis of how the study of libretto can inform the understanding of opera. The volume also catalogues French and English items from the same period in appendices. This comprehensive discussion draws on the literary, musical, dramatic, and theatrical aspects of each libretto while also considering its philosophical, historical, social, and economic contexts. The result is a work with appeal for those curious about the operatic genre and contemporary European culture.

In California in the early 50s, the Fender company introduced the world s first electric bass guitar. They couldn t have known it then, but the Precision Bass would start a revolution in the sound of popular music. This book explains how that revolution happened and how its reverberations are still felt today. The two-guitars-bass-and-drums lineup that would define pop music found its heart with the Fender bass. In the coming decades, the bass guitar provided the solid foundation upon which much modern music is still built. The Bass Book is the first to study its story, with the full lowdown of the most important bass players and bass makers. Brands featured in the book include Alembic, Danelectro, Epiphone, Fender, Fodera, Gibson, Hofner, Ibanez, Lakland, Line 6, Music Man, Peavey, Rickenbacker, Sadowsky, Spector, Squier, Steinberger, Wal, Warwick, and Yamaha. Original interviews with makers of bass guitars from the past and present illuminate the book, with the popular establishment of the bass during the 60s and 70s examined in detail, along with more recent developments such as the popularity of the five-string bass. There is an exclusive interview with Paul McCartney and other bassists who feature in the story, including Stanley Clarke, Flea, James Jamerson, Jaco Pastorius, and Robert Trujillo. Dozens of unusual, desirable, and rarely seen basses are presented in high-quality photos. A reference section provides a wealth of information on the key makers. The Bass Book has all you need to know about the story of the bass guitar in one stylish, readable volume, and this revised and refreshed third edition brings the story right up to date.
