Korngold's oeuvre in an edition
The Mainz Academy of Sciences and Literature is taking on the realization of an edition of Erich Wolfgang Korngold's oeuvre as a long-term project. Arne Stollberg, who taught in Bern and Basel until 2015, is one of the project managers.
Alongside the edition of the complete works of Arnold Schönberg and the Bernd Alois Zimmermann Complete Edition, the Korngold Works Edition is the third musicological edition project on a composer of the 20th century to be coordinated by the Mainz Academy of Sciences and Literature.
The project, which is being carried out jointly with the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities, will run for 25 years and is funded with 388,000 euros per year. The three workplaces are located at the Humboldt University in Berlin, the Rostock University of Music and Drama and the Goethe University in Frankfurt. The project is headed by Arne Stollberg (Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin) and Friederike Wissmann (Rostock University of Music and Drama).
