RAVEL Concerto for Piano and Orchestra (riduzione 2 pianoforti). Urtext, Barenreiter

In the 1960s, long after Ravel’s death, the musical text of the then available Durand edition of Ravel’s Piano Concerto in G major underwent various changes. Although it is unknown who authorised these changes, they have become established as common performance practice. A variety of sources were consulted for this new edition. The first print of the score, parts and piano reduction as well as a set of proofs used by pianist Marguerite Long to rehearse the work for the premiere served as the main sources. Ravel’s autograph, which was used as the engraver’s copy for the first print, must be considered a secondary source as Ravel later authorised changes during the proofreading process.
