He was employed by Universal Edition in Vienna in 1968 to help prepare their Urtext edition of the first seven Mozart sonatas. He held private discussions at this time with Christa Landon, a Schubert authority; Alexander Weinmann in Vienna, the authority on early Viennese music prints; Ludwig Finscher, the authority on the Classical string quartet; and Françoise Lesure, Director of the Music Division of the National Library of Paris. While living in Vienna in 1968 Dr. Whitwell was credited as the discoverer of the vast body of eighteenth-century Harmoniemusik repertoire for eight winds, introducing this music with members of several professional octets, including those from the Stuttgart Radio Orchestra, the Vienna Symphony, the Brabant Orchestra, as well as the National Orchestra of Peru in Lima, and the Los Angeles Philharmonic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDr. Whitwell has given workshops on Mozart performance practice at the Royal College of Music in London, the Conservatory of Music in Milano, in addition to clinics in Korea, Taiwan, Portugal, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Hungary, Belgium and Spain.

Whitwell's work on the ''Gran Partita, '' K. 361, is acknowledged in the preface of the Library of Congress' publication of the facsimile of the autograph score (1976). He is credited with having discovered the proof that this partita has always been one single work and not two separate works, as suspected by many earlier scholars, and for discovering the measure to be omitted before the coda of the ''Romance'' movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book discusses the basic idioms of central European performance in the music of the late Baroque through early Beethoven, which Dr. Whitwell considers fundamental to proper stylistic performance of Mozart's music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 188\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.4 x 10 x 8 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 30, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53099910136115,"sku":"9781936512928","price":43.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/V1lJV2xNNWpicHErUmd6UEZxbU1QUT09.webp?v=1772481420","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/on-the-performance-of-the-music-of-mozart-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
