Shostakovich New Editions

In celebration of his anniversary year in 2025, music publishers Boosey & Hawkes and Sikorski have jointly launched of a revised and corrected new edition of all 15 symphonies by Dmitri Shostakovich. A worthy tribute to one of the most important composers of the 20th century!

Published as large-format study scores, the new editions ensure optimal legibility. All scores and the related orchestral parts have been newly computer typeset. Scores and orchestral parts are also compatible with editions from the The New Collected Works of Dmitri Shostakovich, thus reflecting the current state of research.

Following the successful completion of this edition project, the piano reductions of the two symphonies with vocal or choral participation as well as study scores and piano reductions of other orchestral works by Dmitri Shostakovich, including the popular Suite for Jazz Orchestra No. 2 and his instrumental concertos, will also be released. Like the study scores of the symphonies, these will be revised and corrected new editions in A4 format and in new computer typesetting.
