The Hebrides Op.26
Concert Overture
The Hebrides, the third in Bärenreiter’s series of critical editions of Mendelssohn’s great overtures, is one of MendelssohnBartholdy’s most performed compositions. Previously this work was only available
in one composite version: the Julius Rietz edition from the 1860s.
The new Bärenreiter edition consist oftwo versions each containing additional material from further sources.
Version one, the “Rome” version, exists itself in two versions and has never been published in a performing edition. Versiontwo,the “London” version, also exists in two versions one of which was published by Mendelssohn in
1835.
This pioneering edition documents the development of the composition and thevarious changes made by Mendelssohn. The new edition offers orchestras for the first time the possibility to perform this famous work based on all known sources.
