Publisher: Henle
Format: Softcover
Composer: Alban Berg
Editor: Michael Kube

The genesis of Berg's Violin Concerto in 1935 is shrouded in tragedy. He had only just finished making the first sketches when Manon Gropius - the daughter of Walter Gropius and Alma Mahler, with whom Berg was friends - died of polio. He dedicated the concerto To the memory of an angel in her memory. Then Alban Berg died in 1935, so he no longer lived to see it printed or performed. Our edition - violin part and piano reduction - follow the score edited by Michael Kube, which is being published simultaneously by Breitkopf and Hartel together with the orchestral parts and pocket score. The illustrious violinist Frank Peter Zimmermann has provided fingerings and bowings for the violin part. This edition is worldwide available.
