Henle Urtext Edition edited by Norbert Gertsch and Johanna Steiner. Piano reduction by Johannes Umbreit. Hummel's Potpourri for violoncello and orchestra Op. 95 is part of every violoncello player's core repertoire, especially in its shortened version, the Fantasy. Sprinkled with quotes from operas by Mozart and Rossini and framed by spirited, newly composed passages, this work fills a gap in the small repertoire of the classical-early romantic period. Sebastian Hess has provided fingerings and bowings for the solo part. Hummel produced this version in addition to the original edition for viola. The version presented here was out of print for many years, but is now available again. Preface in Ger., Eng. and Fr., ii-vii. Comments in Ger. and Eng., p. 30-32. Score (32 p.) and part.
