Edition Prima Vista

Edition Prima Vista Music edition focusing mostly on Renaissance & Baroque music, and on recorder music and recorder arrangements; we also offer custom music editing.

edition Prima Vista is a music editing venture focusing mostly (but not exclusively) on Renaissance & Baroque music (16th – 18th centuries), and mostly (but not exclusively) on recorder music and recorder arrangements. We offer Urtext (true-to-source) editions, based on historical sources. Most of the music we publish has rarely been edited, if at all, in modern times; in some cases modern edition

s do exist, but in our opinion they do not do justice with the music – a situation we aim to rectify. edition Prima Vista also offers imaginative and creative arrangements for recorder, of pieces originally written for other instruments, thus expanding the recorder's repertoire in different directions and styles. Last but not least, edition Prima Vista offers the Custom Edit service, where you can send us music you wish to edit and / or change: make a "clean" modern edition, transpose, prepare a score or separate parts, etc.

My latest edition is ready!
Instrumental duets (most likely for 2 recorders) from the collection "Thesaurus Musicus", a collection of songs performed at the London theatres during the last decade of the 17th century.
John Hudgebut, the compiler, added these duets, composed by John Banister, Robert King, James Paisible and others. They are charming and inventive, and can easily be used by teachers and amateur musicians alike to get themselves, or their students, acquainted with the style of this vibrantly fascinating musical scene.
