Handel's Coronation Anthems were composed from September to October of 1727, only four years in his post as composer of music for the Chapel Royal. The occasion was the coronation of the new king, George II, on October 22, 1727. The performance featured the Chapel Royal vocal soloists, chorus and orchestra under the composer's direction in Westminster Abbey. The anthems soon became popular and were subsequently used for other ceremonial events. Handel's four anthems have been performed at every single English coronation since the 1727 premiere. My Heart is Inditing was the final one performed in 1727 (for the coronation of Queen Charlotte) and is likewise the final one in more recent coronations.Offered here is the beautifully engraved edition prepared by Dr. Clark McAlister for the now-defunct American publisher E.F. Kalmus in 1986. Along with reproducing the engraving in the highest quality, this new vocal score has been enlarged to the larger A4 format, which makes the chorus singer's job much easier when rehearsing and performing. Serenissima Music is proud to br the exclusive publisher for Clark McAlister's outstanding catalogue of superb orchestrations and authoritative editions.

This sinfonia (or overture) was the last thing composed for the Rossini's opera La Gazza ladra (known in English as The Thieving Magpie). Rossini, famous for being able to compose very quickly, was quoted in a 19th century biography about the conductor (Alessandro Rolla) ordering him locked in an upper room of Milan's Teatro alla Scala the day before the premiere under guard from four stagehands in order to complete the overture. As Rossini completed a page of score it was handed to one of his 'guards' who then tossed it out the window to a copyist below. The overture is famous for its use of snare drum to invoke the antics of the diabolically clever thieving bird. The opera premiere was given in Milan on May 31, 1817. As with the other overtures, this one has not been treated very well by publishers over the decades. Part of the problem stems from the composer's own manuscripts which were the product of rapid composing under pressure. In addition, the opera itself was very popular and thus revised several times over the following decades by the composer for various performances in Europe. Many things which were simply assumed by performers of the era from their first appearance and applied to analogous passages weren't by those of later eras. This new performing edition prepared by Clark McAlister was previously issued in by defunct publisher E.F. Kalmus in 2006. Serenissima is now pleased to offer not only the present study score, but the large score and orchestral parts.

Originally composed in 1887 for soli, chorus and organ, Dvorak expanded this outstanding work in 1892 for a British concert featuring a large choir and full orchestra.

The study score offered here is a newly researched and engraved edition prepared by Richard W. Sargeant, Jr. The large score and orchestral parts for this superb edition are also available from Serenissima Music.

The suite of five pieces was given its premiere in the original piano duet setting on April 20, 2010 in Paris by Jeanne Leleu and Geneviève Duron. The following year Ravel orchestrated the the five-movement suite, which still often performed in the concert hall and is the version offered here. Later in 1911, the composer decided to expand the work into a one-act ballet by adding two new movements (Prélude and Danse du rouet et scène) and four interludes. The ballet was give its premiere in Paris at the Théâtre des Arts on January 29, 1912. This new study score has been thoroughly researched and carefully reviewed by editors Nieweg and Bradburd. Their excellent edition was originally issued as a large score and parts by the now defunct American publisher E.F. Kalmus in 2014. Serenissima Music is pleased to now offer this edition in a convenient study score format and is the only authorized publisher for the edition.

Prokofiev started work on his first numbered symphony in the later half of 1916, composing the bulk of it while on a country holiday to escape the street fighting in Petrograd during the February revolution, finally completing the work on September 10, 1917. Inspired by his encounter in conducting class with the works of Haydn and Mozart, the symphony features clear and light orchestration Mozart in particular would have appreciated. The premiere took place in Petrograd on April 18, 1918 with the composer conducting the newly formed State Orchestra, formerly the Court Orchestra of the Tsar. Editor Clinton F. Nieweg used all available sources in preparation of this outstanding edition of this landmark 20th century work. With a new clear engraving, the young Prokofiev's mastery of orchestral writing is readily apparent. First issued by the now-defunct publisher Kalmus in 2010, Serenissima is most pleased to offer this outstanding edition in study score format, along with the full score and orchestral parts. Serenissima is proud to serve as the only authorized publisher for Mr. Nieweg's outstanding editions.
