| | Alamire Publishers,
Neerpelt (formerly Peer): From Hildegard to Beethoven, with an
emphasis on Renaissance composers from the Low Countries. In
conjunction with the Alamire Foundation, an international center for
the study of music, Alamire Music Publishers also produces yearbooks,
conference proceedings and the monuments series “Monumentae
Flandriae Musica”.
| | Broude
Brothers, New York: The
company was founded more than 60 years ago and is devoted to all
periods and genres of music. Broude's “Monuments of Music and Music
Literature in Facsimile” began in 1965 and set a new standard in
publishing, while “Performers' Facsimiles” makes available hundreds of
early prints (from the late Renaissance to Classic periods) at an
affordable price.
| | Cornetto
Verlag, Stuttgart: In just ten years Cornetto has filled a
tremdous gap in
16th & 17th-century German source material, mainly drawing on the
rich
holdings of the Schmermar Bibliothek in Ulm, many of them sole
surviving exemplars. The facsimiles are organized into
series, arranged by library, composer, or genre. Thanks to Cornetto,
composers such as Amerbach, Erlebach, Ochsenkun, Steigleder,
Wannemacher,
etc., can now be
studied and performed from primary sources.
| | Arnaldo
Forni Editore, Bologna:
Invaluable collection of Italian musical monuments, practical and
theoretical, that draws on the rich collection of the Civico Museo
Bibliografico Musicale in Bologna. The series “Bibliotheca Musica
Bononiensis” is a mainstay of the music research library; after a
hiatus in the 1990's, the series is now in the process of continuation.
Included in this compilation are all the titles of A.M.I.S. (Antiquae
Musicae Italianae Studiosi), which provide a complementary program.
| | Éditions
J.M. Fuzeau, Courlay:
Scores and parts by a wide range of French and European masters from
1550 to 1850. The ambitious series “Méthodes &
Traités” is a unique resource for performers and scholars
alike, presenting composite collections of treatises devoted to
individual instruments. Intégrale de l'œuvre
théorique de Jean-Philippe Rameau puts all the theoretical
writings of Rameau at one's fingertips. The editions typically
reproduce multiple sources
(providing additional insight into performance practice) & the
introductions appear in 3 languages (Fr/Eng/Ger)..
| | LIM–Libreria
Musicale Italiana,
Lucca: LIM has revolutionized the production of facsimile
editions
of early music by adopting a color process for most of their projects
(e.g., Codices Lucca, Squarcialupi, Boverio, Turin J.II.9 and
Modena a M.5.24), and accompany their reproductions with
first-rate scholarly commentaries. Other publications include important
but neglected works from the music literature (“Mursurgiana”),
performing scores, and original monographs sponsored by various Italian
communales and music organizations. | | Éditions
Minkoff, Geneva:
Minkoff has developed a formidable collection of beautifully printed
facsimiles, mostly from sources housed at the Bibliothèque
Nationale, Paris, ranging from various masterworks from the lute,
harpsichord, and viola da gamba repertoire, the Œuvres
Complètes de Marc-Antoine Charpentier, to Stravinsky's
magnificent full score of L'oiseau de feu (Firebird Ballet).
The company is synonymous with “facsimile edition” and currently offers
more than 600 titles.
| | SPES–Studio
per Edizioni Scelte,
Florence: A library without SPES's “Archivum Musicum” (with
its various sub-series devoted to individual instruments), is almost
unimaginable, considering the breath of this collection and its
integral relationship with the resurgence of the early music movement.
Their impressive new series “Vivaldiana” is being directed
under the auspices of the Fondazione Giorgio Cini.
