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
