Opera buffa in four acts. Composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Edited by Ludwig Finscher. This edition: urtext edition. Paperback. Barenreiter Urtext. Study score. K. 492. Duration 2 hours. Baerenreiter Verlag #TP00320. Published by Baerenreiter Verlag (BA.TP00320).ISBN 9790006204618. 8.86 x 6.5 inches. Text Language: Italian. Preface: Finscher, Ludwig / Leisinger, Ulrich. Lorenzo Da Ponte.
This study score is based on Ludwig Finscher's 1973 edition of ' Le nozze di Figaro' published in the ' New Mozart Edition' and the critical commentary by Ulrich Leisinger published in 2007.
Many of the sources for Mozart's first opera from the Lorenzo Da Ponte trilogy only became available to scholars again after the ' New Mozart Edition' volume was published. These include the autograph scores of acts 3 and 4, now held at the Biblioteka Jagiello ka in Krakow , significant portions of the original sets of parts and acts 2 to 4 of the conductor's copy from the first performance of 1786.
These original sources, now available again, offer compelling solutions to several previously unresolved questions, and are reproduced in this study score.
- Edition based on the Urtext of the 'New Mozart Edition' reflecting the latest musicological research
- With findings from original sources now available again
- Detailed foreword (Ger/Eng)

la nozze di figaro/le mariage de figaro/marriage of figaro
Why this title is in French, I have no clue, as the opera is in Italian. The score is actually Italian and introductory information is in English and German. This is a full-orchestral score, well bound, and super clear to read. Like almost all of Mozart operas, there were changes along the way. The appendix includes massive amounts of just vocal line changes, completely new arias (ones no one ever hears in performance) and a wealth of other information, even alterations to familiar arias. It leaves one wondering, as all critical editions of operas, especially during the classical and bel canot periods, which version should we perform? All of them would be correct. Great Buy
