Details

The date of the present work is unknown. Unlike the majority of Hofmann's concertos it was not offered for sale through the Breitkopf Catalogue and none of the four extant copies records either an acquisition or performance date. The concerto is larger in scale than most of the others and its technical complexities greater. On stylistic grounds it is tempting to place the work in the early 1770s - that is towards the end of Hofmann's active career as a composer - and its occasional technical similarities with the Haydn C major Concerto might be an indication that it was composed after Joseph Weigl's arrival in Vienna in 1769. Two of the four copies are associated with 18th century virtuosi: the first, preserved in Stift Heiligenkreuz and upon which this edition is partially based, once belonged to Gregor Hauer, a pupil of Robert Kimmerling at Melk and later a friend of Michael Haydn; the second, one of two complete sets of parts now located in the archive of the Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde in Wien under the signature IX 2349, carries the initials 'AK' on the wrapper; the handwriting appears to be that of Anton Kraft who initialled a number of works in identical fashion. The third copy, and the principal source for the edition, formerly belonged to Friedrich Wilhem II, the cello-playing King of Prussia.

There are a number of significant variants between the two copies upon which this edition is based. The first movement basso part in the Heiligenkreuz source conforms in outline with the other extant basso parts but is at times more rhythmically static possibly as a consequence of the copyist incorrectly notating or transcribing abbreviations. This source also includes a pair of horn parts which give every appearance of being authentic. The first movement of the Berlin copy includes occasional variations in the accompaniment figures in the violin parts. Of far greater interest, however, is a change in the opening phase of the second-movement recapitulation. In the Berlin manuscript the first phrase of the principal theme returns in the orchestra and is then continued by the solo instrument; the Heiligenkreuz version is far more typical of Hofmann's usual second-movement practice in its omission of the central ritornello in order to begin the recapitulation with the soloist.

This edition is based largely on the Berlin source with the addition of the Heiligenkreuz horn parts. A number of articulation and dynamic markings are adopted from the latter source where they are less ambiguous than those found in the Berlin copy. In keeping with Hofmann's usual practice there are no dynamic markings in the solo sections; these are left to the discretion and good taste of the performer. The style and notation of articulation and dynamic markings have been standardized throughout, and, where missing from the source, reconstructed from parallel passages. These are indicated by the use of dotted slurs or brackets. Like most eighteenth-century sources, the present manuscript is very inconsistent in its notation of appoggiature ; these too have been standardized to minimize confusion. Obvious wrong notes have been corrected without comment; editorial emendations with no authority from the source are placed within brackets. Allan Badley

Worth the investment
Size: 1 Panel, Size: 1 Panel
I had to order this in an emergency. To put it in brief words, I live in a two level studio unit. My bedroom TV fell backwards off the bureau accidentally and down the stairs to its demise. Putting this together was no problem, instructions were thorough and easy. It came with several bars that connected together smoothly and an Allen key for the brackets and screws for the feet. I did one less horizontal bar on top and bottom so it could fit, which was great because with all of them on it was too long. However I ran into the difficulty of the horizontal bars popping out of the brackets during the last stages, but eventually got it done. I was also looking for a specific type of divider where I could adjust the feet so I could tuck it in between the dresser and banister. Glad I made this purchase.

You Get What You Pay For! A Piece Of Junk!
Size: 1 Panel
Flimsy and a piece of junk. Don’t waste your money. Assembly is a pain because it is so flimsy. Divider is thin. You can see right through it. Very wobbly.

Instructions are useless
Size: 1 Panel
The instructions are poorly written and not very helpful. The divider itself is easy to assemble, and honestly, it would’ve been quicker if I had skipped the directions altogether. Once put together, though, it works as intended.

This was the best
Size: 1 Panel
This divider is great for creating a little privacy or separating a small area without taking up much space. The fabric is thick enough to block visual clutter, and the frame is lightweight but stable once it’s opened. It folds flat for storage, which is convenient if you only need it occasionally. Assembly was straightforward, and it was the perfect size. It’s a practical piece for apartments, studios, or home offices where you want a quick, temporary partition.

Good privacy screen
Size: 1 Panel, Size: 1 Panel
This is a good privacy screen that's easy to assemble and looks nice. Be a little careful moving it, as the corners can twist. It's sturdy once in place, and the thick material is completely opaque. If the folds bother you, you might want to iron it, but I'm happy with it as is.
