Description:
The manuscript of Mozart's Concerto Rondo for piano and orchestra has experienced an incredible fate. The almost complete autograph was auctioned by the page in London in the 1830s. Sometimes even half pages came under the hammer. So it is hardly surprising that this original, which was scattered all over the world, has not survived in its entirety?
Today, large parts of Mozart's manuscript score are known again, but there are still considerable gaps. The only source that documents the entire work is an arrangement for solo piano by the composer Cipriani Potter (1792-1871). He made his arrangement before the auction and published it in 1838 with the note: "Arranged from the Original Score in the Authors own hand writing." A comparison with the ending, which was only rediscovered a few years ago, reveals Potter's own authorizations. This original ending is included in the new critical-practical edition, which is based on Potter's first edition but also uses the fragments of the autograph for comparison, as an alternative performance option. As no cadenza has survived from Mozart for this work, a suggested cadenza by the editor is also printed. Potter's arrangement preserves the extraordinary beauty of sound of Mozart's original for performances with piano without orchestra. The edition makes this important source accessible again for practitioners.
