URTEXT EDITION [more...]

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 This arrangement is for piano and the Händel-orchestra, in fact I have made a pianoconcerto of it. The orchestral part of Händel is unchanged but often cut into pieces to let the piano play. I also leave Händel for what it is and add own music, inspired by Händel. The Water Music consists of 3 suites, the horn-suite, the trumpet-suite and the flute-suite. I hereby present the trumpet suite (2nd suite).
