has gloss | eng: Historical editions are a category of published music in print, generally containing Classical music from a past repertory. Although the term can apply to many music publications, it is often applied to scholarly or critical editions, or in other words, music editions in which careful scholarship has been employed to ensure that the music contained within is as close to the composer's original intentions as possible. The term is also often used for a further subset of musical publications, namely multi-volume sets devoted to a particular composer or to a particular musical repertory. These series are sometimes also referred to as Collected Works, Complete Works, or the German Gesamtausgabe (when containing the works of one particular composer) and Monuments, Monumental Editions, or the German Denkmäler (when containing a repertory defined by geography, time period, or musical genre). |
