Establishing editorial principles to create a performance edition of selections from Appunti, op. 210 , by Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco

 25 1

This paper examines editorial methods used in producing published versions of the music of Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco (1895-1968). From this examination, I established some editorial principles to create a performance edition of five movements from book two of CastelnuovoTedesco’s Appunti op. 210. This paper includes a discussion of the sources and methods used in establishing editorial criteria.

Castelnuovo-Tedesco was a prolific composer. He wrote many choral, orchestral and chamber works for a large variety of instruments.In response to the growing persecution of Jewish people throughout Europe, Castelnuovo-Tedesco moved from his native Italy to the United States in 1939. After eventually settling in Hollywood, the composer wrote music for hundreds of films. Although not a guitarist, Castelnuovo-Tedesco wrote a large number of works for the guitar. Given the unique characteristics of the guitar, Castelnuovo-Tedesco frequently relied on the assistance of a guitarist in editing pieces. At the request of the Milanese guitarist Ruggero Chiesa (1933-1993), CastelnuovoTedesco set out to create a collection of didactic pieces for young guitarists.

The pieces were to be collaboratively edited and fingered by Chiesa, and then given final approval by the composer. Unfortunately, the composer died before finishing the work. The pieces and sketches that survive exist in four volumes published by the Italian house, Suvini Zerboni, containing the pieces that Chiesa edited with the approval of Castelnuovo-Tedesco...)
