My college prof in this area would always say that the best modern
editions should be usable by both performer and scholar. Not always easy

All this talk about concert pitches and brass parts brings to mind
that from what I understand now, many HIP performance groups would
rather use the 18th century parts when available and make any
editorial changes on those-- really taking out the step of making a
performing edition. But that still doesn't address the need for scores
that would be useful for college students, and other researchers. In
the case of Graupner, all the orchestral parts to his orchestral
suites vanished in the late 18th century (it's unclear what happened).
So I have my work cut out for me. I'm almost halfway finished editing
all of the surviving 85 suites now. *Whew*
Thanks
