This vocal score of Mozarts concert and insert arias is based on the New Mozart Edition (NMA). This first of three volumes comprises all arias for high soprano, and is arranged chronologically within the volume.

Unlike the NMA the musical text presented is free from practical references on performance aspects or suggestions on performance practice. Instead, it contains an accompanying brochure, with detailed explanations on the execution of appoggiaturas and other performance practice phenomena which are relevant to every aria. In addition, there is a choice of suggestions for the performance of cadenzas and lead-ins as well as a suggestion for the ornamentation of dal segno parts, which are often found in the early Mozart arias.

Features:

- Underlaid text presented in the original language only
- All aria texts are translated into German and English and are printed separately
- Idiomatic piano reductions to the individual arias
- Clear and legible layout of the musical text as all additional notes and suggestions on performance practice appear in the supplement published with the volume
