Artescripta - Music Publisher

Artescripta is publishing hand-made facsimiles of rare early music from a private collection. Facsimiles are hand-made in The Hague on order.

Artescripta is a publishing company of musical facsimiles : scores and parts, methods, manuscripts, etc. Created in 2020 by French historical horn player Nicolas Roudier, it is based in The Hague, Netherlands, and features exceptional music and prints. In 2019 Nicolas started compiling an inventory for a private collection of original music sheets dated from the mid-XVIIIth century to the late XIX

th century. Located in France, the collection gathers over 1000 titles, among them rare or unknown works and composers. The unquestionable value of these treasures convinced Nicolas to acquire them and to share them with the early music world in accessible yet beautiful facsimiles that will enlarge our repertoire and knowledge of late-classical and romantic music. They feature quality scans of the originals that will be digitally cleaned on demand, and a simple cover made of a typical Dutch rag paper (zaansch bord), with texts inspired from the original fonts of the time. The music is printed on a beautiful 100g laid paper, the same that was used during the XIXth century. A basic binding method is then used to guarantee affordable prices : a glued tape of linen, or a simple ribbon binding for items with less than 10 pages.

New and rare ! 👀 Küffner : Quintetti op.32 for principal Clarinet, Violin, two Violas and Violoncello. 🎻🎶Dedicated to his friend Adam Schott. First French edition by Richault, c1809. Stamp of the editor and label of Roger. A hand-written signature, Philibert. Five complete parts, and rare !

Because all parts are only 2 or 3 pages, it seems like a waste to make complete bindings for each of them. So I will make a folder with the usual blue rag paper, and the parts will be held together with a blue satin ribbon.

While inventorying, we found another edition of Trios 1 and 3 in the collection, absolutely complete ! Trio 3 even has an alternative part for violin in case of absence of basse 😍 Trio 2 remains slightly incomplete, but this is quite an improvement. Have a look : https://artescripta.com/?s=rasetti
