ーーーーー
There are works that Beethoven completed but was not satisfied with and had to compromise on.
One typical example is the part in the Symphony of Heroes where he wanted to spin the main melody on trumpet, but had to substitute woodwinds.
This arrangement is not so much a re-arrangement as it is a reinforcement and substitution of instruments, and many parts may not be noticed on first hearing.
Detailed performance instructions have also been written in, Beethoven's performance on the instruments he gave up has been restored, and as brass instruments have improved and usage has changed, melodies that were once out of tune have been added, or notes that were too high have been lowered, among other treatments.
Furthermore, timpani parts that do not match the basses have been changed to match the basses as much as possible using pedals.
The retouch to these orchestrations is widely known in the arranged version by Gustav Mahler. My arrangement has the same problematics as Mahler's, but re-orchestrates them in a completely different way.
I would like to thank the Nanzan University Orchestra for performing this score under my conducting. Thank you very much.
