The New Mozart Edition offers researchers a musicologically unimpeachable text based on all the available sources (generally Mozart's autograph manuscripts). At the same time, it also serves as an aid to authentic performances.
The principal Series I to IX, containing Mozart's actual œuvre, appeared between 1956 and 1991. They are regarded as a supreme achievement of Mozart scholarship in our time; modern performances of Mozart's music are unthinkable without them. The important supplementary volumes shed fresh and illuminating light on neglected aspects of Mozart's creative work, such als his activities as a teacher or as an arranger of other composer's works.

The edition is divided into thirty-five groups of works combined into ten series. Each group includes Mozart's finished works in chronological oder; sketches, drafts and fragments of the works are located in an appendix to the relevant volume. In addition to the printed text, each volume of music contains a detailed preface and facsimile reproductions from the source material. It is also accompanied by a separately published critical report.
  The »New Mozart Edition« includes the following series:

I. Sacred Vocal Works (15 volumes)
II. Stage Works (26 volumes)
III. Lieder, Part Songs, Canons (3 volumes)
IV. Orchestral Works (19 volumes)
V. Concertos (14 volumes)
VI. Church Sonatas (1 volume)
VII. Music for Large Ensembles of Solo Instruments (3 volumes)
VIII. Chamber Music (11 volumes)
IX. Piano Music (7 volumes)
X. Supplement (ca. 25 volumes)
Available on subscription at a 10% discount.

The main series (I-IX) were completed in 1991. The supplement (series X) will be completed in 2007.
