From pdietz at musikmph.de Tue Sep 14 19:55:36 2004 From: pdietz at musikmph.de (peter dietz) Date: Fri Jun 1 15:36:46 2007 Subject: [MWS]: A Challenge for Music Idealists Message-ID: Dear Music Friends, we are going on with our publication project REPERTOIRE EXPLORER / OPERA EXPLORER - reprints and first printings of rare scores (orchestral, vocal and chamber music, operas) that are not available anywhere else on sale -, and we would like to provide the music world with more of these indispensable volumes in study format. It is one of our basic aims to enrich the music world, to expand the repertoire, to make things available for everyone interested at an affordable price. Every score we release includes a foreword with basic informations about the work and, especially in all the cases where the composer is not one of those who are fully recognized, about the composer. This is what we do and what we will continue doing. We have found collaborators of our work all over the world. But we are still looking for further people who have the knowledge and the enthusiasm to take part in our project, who want to be part of our enterprise. We are looking for those among you who would like to write original prefaces, to do research in cases that are hard to solve, to find scores in good shape for reprinting, and who are able and willing to translate German prefaces into the English. We cannot pay money for your contributions but collaborations in other terms may be possible, and the idealism may unite us. We think it is necessary to do these steps and that those who are interested in the same matter should find together. If you are interested to join us please give us a hint. There are a lot of upcoming releases. We can offer you good company, feedback, a rich background, etc. We are grateful to hear from you. Christoph Schlueren & Peter Dietz
