Edition Peters, with its three offices in Leipzig, London and New York, has always had a truly international approach to music. Continuing the tradition, 2018 sees the company launch many projects sourced from a richly diverse range of cultures and countries.

We begin with the launch of The Silk Road Series, a groundbreaking co-publication with our partners in China, the Central Conservatoire of Music Press in Beijing. Eight of China’s leading contemporary composers have contributed major works to the series, inspired by the Silk Road. And fittingly, Leipzig – where the Peters story began in 1800 – is now on the New Silk Road (“Belt and Road”).

Leipzig provides the powerful music included in our Peters East German Library 1949 – 1990. The years in which Germany, and the publishing house itself, were divided between East and West form an important chapter in the company’s story. The output of composers from the East German firm – then known as VEB Edition Peters, Leipzig – forms a unique and valuable part of the company’s identity and, more widely, of European cultural history, making this repertoire well worth rediscovering. Additionally, as a city inextricably associated with J.S. Bach, Leipzig links to The Orgelbüchlein Project: a 21st-century completion of Bach’s Orgelbüchlein.

From the New Silk Road we travel to South America with La Voz Latina – a project eagerly awaited by choral directors around the world. This landmark project has been years in A MUSICAL development, and will provide an amazingly rich new offering of previously unavailable music for choirs. Our Latin theme continues with Tango Canción. Tango is surely one of the most JOURNEY passionate and popular musical forms, and this new collection brings together some of the most famous tunes in new arrangements for voice and piano.

Back in Europe we continue our commitment to new Urtext editions, renewing and extending some of the most important sections of the Edition Peters catalogue. Highlights this year include the release of the next volumes in The Complete Chopin – A New Critical Edition, and new editions of the keyboard music of J.S. Bach and Liszt. 2018 also brings the completion of our award-winning Fauré Songs edition: the first ever serious critical assessment and Urtext edition of this inspirational and essential repertoire for singers.

Finally, with more than the score… we explore the exciting link between print and digital products from a truly global perspective. This series uses exclusive content available in the Piano Masterworks collection on the Tido Music platform. This rapidly growing library of video performances, masterclasses and digital editions, enhanced with audio recordings and enlightening contextual articles on the composers and their music, now boasts over 100 Edition Peters volumes of essential piano music – a truly amazing resource for all pianists. Edition Peters is without doubt the vocal music publisher of choice for singers around the world, and has now released vocal digital editions on the two latest collections on the Tido platform: Vocal Masterworks and Educational Vocal. The first titles released in digitally-enhanced editions with audio include the iconic Arie Antiche and Vaccai’s Metodo Pratico, together with hundreds of Lieder and chansons. A great start for singers of all levels.

We hope you find something to enjoy from the music of our world tour!

EDVARD GRIEG AND HIS PUBLISHER NEW As we celebrate this Grieg anniversary year, it seems fitting to reflect upon the unique and defining relationship that the composer had with the owners of the Leipzig publishing house of C.F. Peters throughout his life. This remarkable story is documented in over 400 letters between Grieg and Max Abraham and Henri Hinrichsen, the family owners of C.F. Peters, written between 1863 and the composer’s death in 1907. Max Abraham spotted the prodigious talent of Grieg very early on, when the composer had only just graduated from the Leipzig conservatoire, and published Grieg’s Opus 1 and 2 in 1863. From that point on, a lasting friendship was nurtured and developed. Grieg often referred to Max Abraham as his “adoptive father” and he was certainly a guiding and supportive friend to Grieg throughout his life.

Every year Grieg would visit the owners of C.F. Peters in their wonderful commercial and residential building in Talstrasse 10, Leipzig. In his own special quiet room at the top of this magnificent house – designed by Otto Brückwald, the architect Piano Concerto in A minor Op. 16 | New Urtext Edition of the Bayreuth Festspielhaus – Grieg loved to compose.

Peters, although the Score and parts available for rental company also worked very hard to promote Grieg’s music. Grieg wrote to Max Abraham in 1884:

What on earth are you doing with my compositions … to make them so popular! Not a week passes without my receiving so many letters … that I can hardly answer them all. Delightful, but too much of a good thing! The Peters Germany company is now back home in Leipzig in Talstrasse 10, and the family dining room on To mark this anniversary year, we are releasing a new Urtext the first floor has been fully restored as it was in Grieg’s edition of the Piano Concerto, Opus 16.

PETERS EAST GERMAN LIBRARY 1949 – 1990

Throughout its long and eventful history, Edition Peters has consistently sought to support contemporary music, making it accessible in high-quality scores. The years in which Germany, and the publishing house itself, were divided between East and West form an important chapter in the company’s story.

The output of composers from the East German firm – then known as VEB Edition Peters, Leipzig – forms a unique and valuable part of the company’s identity and, more widely, of European cultural history. Their works are compositionally and aesthetically diverse, while sharing a communicative creative drive. The artistic independence of the music created in East Germany between 1949 and 1990 makes this repertoire well worth rediscovering.
