Dramma giocoso in two acts. Composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Edited by Faye Ferguson and Wolfgang Rehm. Arranged by Rasmus Baumann. This edition: urtext edition. Hardback. Barenreiter Urtext. Vocal Score. KV 588. Baerenreiter Verlag #BA04606-93. Published by Baerenreiter Verlag (BA.BA04606-93).ISBN 9790006568864. 10.83 x 7.87 inches. Text Language: Italian, German. Translation: Kurt Honolka. Lorenzo Da Ponte.
In the space of a few months, in the autumn and winter of 1789, Mozart filled more than 650 pages of a score that shows practically no signs of mental or physical exertion. The result was one of his most profound operas, Cosi fan tutte , which has held listeners spellbound with its blend of bitterness and comedy to the present day.
Our easy-to-play vocal score is based on the volume edited by Faye Ferguson and Wolfgang Rehm for the"New Mozart Edition"(NMA II/5/18) and on the latest scholarly findings from the critical commentary published by Henning Bey and Faye Ferguson in 2003.
Due to numerous customer requests, Barenreiter will be successively offering vocal scores to major Mozart operas in hardback editions again. Sturdier hardcover editions of important repertoire works are more likely to survive the rigours of a musicians's life.
