NEW MUSIC EDITIONS

We are extremely pleased to announce the publication of three very important music editions. Vincent Ho’s The Twelve Chinese Zodiac Animals, Book 1 (PE212) for piano was released earlier in the year in conjunction with Canada’s Royal Conservatory of Music 2022 Piano Syllabus. This is a very important addition to our collection. 12 charming and challenging pieces have been composed especially for young players — prototyped with the composer’s daughter — to develop technical abilities.

We are also very excited to release the ninth volume of our Larry Pruden Collected Edition (PEP09). This edition contains representative examples of Pruden’s film music, incidental music and occasional pieces. It also draws a close to the series, which commenced in 2002, and is the first scholarly collected series of music by a New Zealand composer.

Our third release is a further addition to The John Psathas Percussion Project. Corybas for Percussion Ensemble (PE193) was originally penned for piano trio but here it is expertly arranged by Omar Carmenates for mallet quintet and percussion. Carmenates has styled this arrangement in the same vein as Psathas’ Kyoto (PE174), and in creating the percussion part references the drumming styles of traditional greek music and jazz.

We are also pleased to announce our new online web-store https://store.prometheaneditions.com. The new store now provides seamless purchasing of print and digital formats of over 230 published editions. We’ve added photographs of each score and part to provide an accurate portrayal of every product. We have also made over 250 facsimile editions available for instant download, making them more accessible than ever before.
