Richard Wagner's Das Rheingold takes center stage this March. With major premieres at the Salzburg Easter Festival and in Meiningen, the musical world is looking toward a new era of interpretation. Thanks to Schott’s Richard Wagner Complete Edition, Wagner’s epic prologue sounds as accurate and authentic as the composer originally intended.

Jörg Widmann is currently Composer in Residence with the Berlin Philharmonic. To mark the end of this collaboration, he has composed a new work for the orchestra and its principal horn Stefan Dohr. The Hornkonzert (Horn Concerto) will be premiered on 30 May at the the Philharmonie Berlin under the baton of Sir Simon Rattle, the orchestra's former chief conductor.
