 Rossini Introduction, Theme and Variations - Orchestral Score and Parts
Author: crnichols

Greetings everyone,

I have a student preparing the Rossini Introduction, Theme and Variations for a few upcoming concerto competitions. The applications request publisher information for the required selection.

Does anyone know the source for the orchestral score and parts for this work? I've not had success finding it on the Kalmus website or J.W. Pepper, so I thought I would check here!

Best wishes,

Christopher Nichols, D.M.A.
Assistant Professor of Clarinet
University of Delaware

According to the newest edition of Daniels' Orchestral Music the publisher is Sikorski, eded by Jost Michaels. The full orchestration is listed as rental material on Sikorski's web site.

Chris,
Kalmus has it, but it is called "Variations for Clarinet and Small Orchestra." Catalog number is A1950.

"Variations for Clarinet and Small Orchestra" is a different piece, written for a friend when Rossini was a teenage student. IMSLP has copies of the scores for both works.

In addition to Sikorski, Oxford University Press has the score and parts available for rental. There is also a version edited by David Hite, originally made for Southern Music. Lauren Keiser acquired Southern Music in 2012 and. according to its website, has the parts and score available for rental. Note that this version may be copies of handwritten parts but they are generally legible (and the orchestra parts are pretty easy, anyway). The advantage is that Lauren Keiser is a U.S. publisher and (at least when they were available from Southern) these parts cost considerably less to rent.

Best regards,
jnk

Lucks Music has the piece for sale, though the set comes with only 1 of each string part. It's 13610 in their catalog. Or is this the wrong piece?

If you are talking about Luck's #01657, this is the wrong piece, as Jack Kissinger mentions in the post above yours.

The "Variations for Clarinet and Small Orchestra" is a different work altogether.

It's not unusual to find confusion between these two works- the program notes for NY Phil performance earlier this did made the same mistake.... With a little bit of googling you find not much is *really* known about the Introduction, Theme and variations (though there's a LOT of guessing and conjecture), while the provenance of the "Variations for clarinet and small orchestra" is well documented
