Principles of Editio Janáček

For the critical form of the resulting musical score, we work from the Editors' Principles and Directives issued in a 1979 book by Jarmil Burghauser and Milan Šolc. The compilation of critical editions of Janáček's work was begun in the late 1970's by then state-owned publisher Supraphon in cooperation with Baerenreiter, GmbH.

The practical editions are identical in notography with the critical issues, but are free of publishers' notes and annotations.
