Description:
Antonio Salieri wrote music history with his Variations on "La Follia", a Spanish dance song of the late Renaissance: composers such as Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven had already integrated orchestral variation movements into symphonies and concertos, and "La Follia" had also been the subject of frequent arrangements at this time; however, with this work Salieri presented the first self-contained cycle of orchestral variations in music history.
John Snyder's scholarly-critical edition is based on the careful evaluation of the only surviving source, an autograph score by Salieri. In addition to a detailed introduction (English/German), the edition contains a critical report as well as practical performance notes on special aspects of the work, such as the "in lontano" strings, the timpani tuning and the ornamentation. This edition thus opens up flexible performance possibilities for today's orchestras, to which the parts provided with alternative options (ossia) also contribute.
