For more than 200 years, Edition Peters has been synonymous with excellence in classical music publishing. Established in 1800 with the keyboard works of J. S. Bach, by 1802 the company had acquired Beethoven’s First Symphony. In the years following, an active publishing policy enabled the company to acquire new works by composers such as Brahms, Grieg and Liszt, continuing into the twentieth century with Richard Strauss, Arnold Schoenberg and John Cage.

Today, as the publisher of living composers from around the world, Edition Peters continues its role as a champion of new music while continuing to develop its historic and education catalogues with award-winning critical and pedagogical editions.

Seit über 200 Jahren steht die Edition Peters für höchste Qualität im Bereich klassischer Notenausgaben. Gegründet im Jahr 1800, begann der Verlag seine Tätigkeit mit der Herausgabe von Bachs Tastenmusik. Schon zwei Jahre später waren die Rechte an Beethovens erster Sinfonie hinzugekommen. In der Folgezeit wuchs der Katalog um neue Werke von Komponisten wie Brahms, Grieg und Liszt. Diese Tradition fand ihre Fortsetzung im 20. Jahrhundert in der Zusammenarbeit mit Richard Strauss, Arnold Schönberg und John Cage.

Als Verleger zahlreicher zeitgenössischer Komponisten aus aller Welt ist die Edition Peters auch weiterhin Anwalt neuer Musik. Zugleich wird das Verlagsprogramm im klassischen wie im pädagogischen Bereich kontinuierlich durch vielfach preisgekrönte Ausgaben erweitert.
