Talk:Elijah, Op.70 (Mendelssohn, Felix)

vocal score typos or scanning flaws?

There's something wrong with the scan of the Peters vocal score: there are tenuto like vestiges from the start, but by measure 5 notes are obviously misplaced on the staff and the text is out of alignment as well. Is the original edition like this? Richard Mix 06:22, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

I'll have a look at that. It could be a problem created by a image-processing program that was run post-scanning. Carolus 22:20, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

There are a lot of problems in this score, it is not the original for sure, I was reading Aria 4 and there are a lot of impossible notes... Pity since the other edition is in English only.

Those who have this page but not File:PMLP27823-Mendelssohn-Op070vsGE.pdf on their watchlist may be delighted to know this has been resolved, and that a trip to the library (such as mine last month >:-[ ) is no longer necessary. "Scan quality: no ratings yet" was the tipoff. Richard Mix 00:32, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
