URTEXT EDITION 

This is an urtext/critical/scholarly/scientific edition (or a simple re-engraving). Any commentary or critical apparatus, if protected by copyright, should not be included in the scan(s) available here. This edition was published by Bärenreiter in Germany over 25 years ago and is in the public domain in its country of origin.

In Canada, new editions/re-engravings of public domain works (when not including new original material) should be in the public domain due to failing to meet the threshold of originality. In most European Union countries, these editions (except new original material) are generally protected for no more than 25 years from publication (30 years in Poland). In the United States, copyright can only apply to new creative work, and the re-engraving of a public domain piece (not including new additions of creative material) should not qualify for a new copyright, despite copyright claims (which properly would only apply to new material).

You may need to check the publication date and details of the work's first publication in order to determine the work's copyright status, especially for the United States.

Misc. Notes Arranger's note The arranger intends that this transcription may be performed equally well with or without the flute part. The goal of the arrangement is to be as faithful to Mozart’s aesthetics as is possible, and either choice (whether to include the flute) provides different advantages. The version without flute matches the instrumentation of Mozart’s Quintet for Piano and Winds, K.452. This version was the original version of the transcription.

The version with flute allows for a more exact match to the higher passages of Mozart’s violin part. The arranger believes the flute is particularly valuable in passages like bars 65–9 in the first movement and 270–9 in the last. If the flute is absent, the oboe and clarinet players should play the cues marked “play in absence of flute.”

The piano part is identical to the original.
