I associate Bärenreiter as being the most honest and direct interpreter of some of classical music’s greatest compositions. This is truly important in order to dive deeply into developing a unique interpretation as we need to understand the original intentions of the composer. With Bärenreiter, they always translate the most direct version of the manuscript in modern printing, and this allows us to be able to read the manuscript without difficulty.
