Komponisten-Gesamtausgaben im digitalen Zeitalter: Perspektiven und Reflexionen am Beispiel Ludwig van Beethovens

Konferenzbeitrag

In the field of edition philology a diverse range of digital approaches is being put to the test. Taking Ludwig van Beethoven as a basis, this article demonstrates the limits of printed editions and presents preliminary considerations for a genuinely digital edition of his works. Various versions of the Ninth Symphony, the publisher Sigmund Anton Steiner’s publication concept for the Seventh and Eighth Symphonies and Wellingtons Sieg, which incorporated arrangements for highly diverse scorings, as well as the use of single numbers from the opera Fidelio in other music theatre works of the time, all serve as examples. The significance of metatexts and connections in terms of materiality are also discussed. Conceptional principles of such a Digital Beethoven Edition would include an inclusive approach allowing for multiple perspectives, which greatly expands both the number of sources on which an edition is based and the potential for insight, in contrast with traditional editions.
