To date, the accepted knowledge has been that the first completed surviving composition with an opus number by Leó Weiner was the Serenade, Op. 3 (1906).

In 2024, however, an enigmatic manuscript by Weiner came to light that is most probably a piano reduction for four hands of the Op. 1, which was believed to have been destroyed.

Published for the first time 120 years after it was written, the drifting and sparklingly witty Scherzo gives an insight into the youthful workshop of Leó Weiner, whose career began with a meteoric rise.

The complete choral works of two important Hungarian composers of the twentieth century, Béla Bartók and Zoltán Kodály, are now available in an expanded and carefully corrected edition.

The new edition includes several works or versions of works that have not appeared in print before.

The publications have been edited based on standardized editorial principles, with clearly legible musical graphics, and informative prefaces and afterwords.
 

György Kurtág has been inspired at every stage of his career by studying masterpieces from earlier periods of music history.

As a result, he has written numerous transcriptions of works by old masters (Guillaume Machaut, Orlando Lasso, Frescobaldi, Schütz, Purcell, Bach, Mussorgsky and Bartók) for piano four hands, two pianos and solo piano. Some of the transcriptions also served his work as a chamber music teacher, others served the Kurtág couple’s chamber music at home, and became an indispensable part of their own concerts.
