Description
Strauss had originally intended that Don Quixote always be performed, if possible, together with Heldenleben , "since Don Q. in particular is only fully comprehensible alongside Heldenleben." To date, Strauss's wish is rarely respected. The Don Quixote Urtext edition now being published by Breitkopf & Härtel can assist here. Once again, the new edition is based on Strauss's own engraver's model, helping to clarify numerous misunderstandings, and facilitating the correction of dozens of traditional errors. Furthermore, the woodwind parts, previously available only in manuscript form, are now appearing completely engraved for the first time.
